    Very good installment instructions and a handy template. I had it hooked up and working in about 1-1/2 hours. Cooks very nicely and has ample features. We're very happy with this purchase.

  • Display failed after 2.5 years

    Microwave worked fine for about 2 years, but then display driver failed so that numbers constantly flicker and are illegible. It still heats but not possible to see the cook time on the led display. Others experienced the same issue as described in this reddit article. It's looking like there is no cost-effective fix and the whole unit will need to be replaced. It is 2.5 years old. https://www.reddit.com/r/Appliances/comments/1att9yg/ge_microwave_display_flashes/

    Have had three GE microwave ovens, the prior two were "Profile", and this one is not, yet this one meets its purpose and it's good looking.

    Replacement for a previous unit. Works well, fingerprints show up prominently on this would be the only nitpick.
