    Great microwave for the price! The preset convenience cooking settings for things like popcorn are nice.

    Bought this to replace my GE that stopped working. Was hoping it would have the same mounting points as my older one that is 6 years old (same dimensions) but it didn't. Installation was a pain. Hope it last longer than the last one..

    Love my new GE Over-the-Range Microwave. Purchase was so easy and it was in stock. Installation was quick and professional. It was hard to find a microwave that still has the "instant minutes" feature but this one is perfect.

    Very happy with this purchase! It goes on sale quite often, so I recommend waiting if it’s not. Nothing fancy; a standard really good microwave. Quiet and quiet works great! No issues.

    The GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave - White that I purchased was a replacement microwave for a GE 1.7 Cu Ft Over the range that malfunctioned after 3 yrs. New replacement GE - 1.6 Cu Ft microwave cost less than the replacement board required to fix my original microwave.

    This microwave has all the convenient features that you need to cook your favorites--express 1 minute and 2 minute settings by just pushing the 1 or 2 key! The potato, popcorn and beverage buttons make it easy too!

    Heats wells, has all the features I need. If you are installing this on your own, I found that taping the template to a piece of carboard made easier to align it on the cabinet's bottom for perfect holes.

    A great deal to replace an old microwave! Major problems with self installation due to poor directions and models from GE, although this is not the fault of Best Buy!

    The install was not bad. It works the way it should. I'm happy I bought it. The exhaust fan works good. A little loud when on full blast, but sucks all the smoke out.

    I bought it because my old Microwave was a GE. I thought the old holes would line up with the new one. Didn't happen. Also, the panel is very hard to read.

    I purchased this microwave after considering so many others. It looks good and performs well. And it also has a range of options, including a timer, which is an essential part of my cooking since it is right above the stove top. Great product !

    Didn't fit the standard opening. I had the same standard GE microwave for many years. All I did was order another . Don't buy GE Products. It doesn't bring good things to life !!!!!!

    I was limited with the size of the microwave. I was limited with width and height. My options were very limited. Microwave works great. Unfortunately, I had to wait a couple of weeks before microwave was available to pick-up
