    Second time buying this microwave. The digital display is going out on the first one. Let's hope this one does better. Otherwise, it's a nice looking microwave that works fine.

    Nice looking microwave. We installed it ourselves and had no problems. Only negative is the words and numbers on the keypad are a little hard to read in a dimly lighted kitchen. It would be nice to have back lighting on the keypad.

    I rated this 4 stars because compared to the unit we replaced, which was a Kenmore Elite that cost $900 in 2011, this unit's fit and finish along with the overall build quality is less than 5 stars. But otherwise, for the price, this unit works very well and is easy to install. The mounting holes on top weren't in the same place as our Kenmore so I had to do more drilling, but other than that it was easy to install. BEWARE - it takes two strong adults to install this or any other Over-the-Range microwave. I would definately recommend this unit if you need something in this price point that works well and looks good.

    I like the appearance, the features, the ease In using. I had microwave professionally installed. One day, for what appeared to be for no reason...the vent went on. I could not turn it off and I could not activate any control. The installer came out and could not find a problem. A tech person from Best Buy came out and told me that whenever I cook on top of stove to turn on vent. He explained that newer models require that vent be turned on as a safety measure. I hate the sound of vent on when using range; however, I will comply with suggestion.

    This microwave looks nice and cooks well when it works. It is finicky though! The door often doesn't latch completely so the timer and fan work but turntable and cooking do not. I need to push hard on the handle to complete the circuit when this happens. And now the 1 and 2 keys on the keypad have stopped working, and others work intermittently.... so not very functional after 6 months of use!

    Its quiet, which is a nice touch. The directions on how to mount it were very helpful. Easy to get inside. Doesn't have as many features as my previous microwave, but that's fine.

    After a power surge took out my 15-year-old over-the-range GE microwave, it seemed too good to be true that this replacement would be quieter and less expensive. It even fit on the existing wall mount. Great value.

    Keypad is illegible!!!

    We just got this microwave as a gift from our children. Compared with our ancient microwave this is great! BUT the keypad is hard to read when the lighting in the kitchen is bright and impossible if the lights are low. I have to turn on the lights to turn off the under light at night. I understand that adding back light to the pad would add cost, but just make the graphics white instead of dull gray. Too bad this one flaw ruins an otherwise solid product.

    Surprised at how quiet this is while in use. Like the "reminder" feature if you don't remove your heated food from the oven right away. Has all the things we were looking for in a over the stove microwave, plus was not difficult to install.

    This microwave worked great for a year and a half. Then the display started to flicker. The function was just fine, but the display should last longer.

    I never have any issues when purchasing from Best Buy. My new microwave looks great in my kitchen. I had to wait a few days to pick up, it was worth the wait. My next purchase will be a new stove. Maybe a washer and dryer. It's about that time, out with the old in with the new.
