    The only con is that the clock numbers are white and my other GE appliances are green, easier on the eyes early in the morning :) The microwave works fine, does all the things you need it to. The men that installed it were excellent! The curve on the handle matches my other GE appliances almost, but really close.

    Installation was a pain in the ….. and I feel like the drilling template wasn’t accurate but it could have been user error.

    It’s almost exactly the same as my 20 year old GE microwave that it replaced. I don’t. Care for the timer that doesn’t shut off until you hit the button (instead of beeping at you every 30 seconds) but otherwise it’s a gem.

    My old GE Microwave was 7 years old and died so I replaced it with this new one. Installation was a terrible process. None of the holes required matched my old unit so I had to measure where to place the 3 bolt's and drill new holes and I also had to figure where the hole was needed for the electrical cord. My previous GE Microwave replaced another GE Microwave and at that time all of the holes lined up perfectly. Some of the operational functions on the new Microwave have changed from the old so I have to re-learn how to use this new one. When this one dies I won't be so eager to replace it with another GE.

    Will last 3 years

    Purchased this one 3 years ago based on Consumer Reports and Best Buy reviews, worked great until it wouldnt turn on. Turns out these models are known to short due to the "overuse of the door" (that was from a GE tech that came out). Tech said dont bother repairing as he would charge more than it costs to buy new (hows that for quality and sustainability). So I went ahead and bought an open-box one that happened to be at the local Best Buy... Worked for 2 weeks. Guess I should be happy since it allowed me to return within the 15 day period. Well, on to another brand (Whirlpool) but i heard that there really are only a couple manufacturers of these microwaves, and they resell them under the different appliance brands. So who knows, just hoping this new Whirpool one lasts 3 years instead of 2 weeks...

      Hello there, we're terribly sorry to find out that your microwave quit working properly after just 3 years and that your open-box replacement only lasted 2 weeks. We would never want this sort of experience for any consumer of ours so we can certainly imagine how disappointed you must feel. We appreciate your feedback as it will help us ensure this doesn't happen again and we're wishing you the best. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. - Guy@GEA GE_Appliances

    Once I understood your strange requirements to purchase something, I went home ordered the microwave and drove back and picked up the product. The staff was in front of the store in a small group doing very little that was obvious to the naked eye. The microwave is operating as expected.

    This replaced my high over-the-counter unit which lasted 17 years. They are both both are GE. I did the removal and installation myself. I do not recommend that if you feel hesitant. The new simpler unit works very well. I didn't use all the advance features of my old one. very happy with this model.

    It works just fine, but its loud. For the price I recommend it, but you won't want to warm things up when you're trying to listen to something else.

    i love this microwave I only took one star away because i do not care for the inside of the door- it has a sort of screen type detail- to make the door looked greyish.. it makes it look like the door is dirty or streaky.. I notice everything so if that doesn't bother you..
