Simple to use, and it looks nice. I liked getting this microwave at Best Buy. I loved the price.

Our LG microwave died and we had to replace it. I believe microwaves are one of the least interesting things to shop for. You know they’re all going to do basically the same job, and none of the features are all that exciting. I ended up choosing this unit because it was an open box in our local store, but we were pleasantly surprised when we got it installed and started using it. It’s much quieter than our old unit and seems to cook faster as well. overall, it seems like a very well designed unit and we’re way happier with change than expected.

After at least 14 years my prior microwave just gave out. Replaced it with identical updated brand and model in white to match other kitchen Appliances. the crew installing it worked together like a well oiled machine. What would we do without microwaves anymore?!

I picked this microwave because of it's sleek look and simple options. So far I have been very pleased. I especially like the finish. It doesn't show fingerprints.

Microwave came in stock sooner than planned and installation was scheduled promptly. Installer arrived on time; removed old unit and installed new one quickly. He set clock and did a test before leaving. Microwave is very nice upgrade to my old unit...great features and overall look. Nice bright clock, surface light, and 2 speed vent were must haves that this unit includes. Looking forward to trying the sensor cooking feature also. Great buy and service!

I really like this microwave. It has quick minute buttons. It also is large enough to get a big meal or more than 1 plate in when reheating food.

Looks great, but not user friendly

The new microwave looks sleek and nice. However, it is not user friendly. It has two major problems. 1. The vent fan often starts automatically when I close the microwave, and the light remains on, but it does not cook or reheat, unless I shut it close really hard. Then it will function normal. 2. When the food is done, there is no sound indication to remind you that food is ready. 3. The exhaust fan has two levels, even at the lower level it makes very loud noise, which makes it impossibe to talk at the kitchen. Had I known, I would have purchased Kenmore, the brand I had before.

So far so good, good size, power and price. Now if it just lasts more than a year would be good. Last one burnt out in just over a year.

We replaced a 4 year old GE microwave with this microwave, (both have the same model number) mainly because we believed it would be a straight swap and no change of the support, upper cabinet screws and the power cord would all be the same. Well, of course, none of that was true. Had to replace the wall support (drilling new holes for screws and mollie bolts), drill new holes in upper cabinet and a new large hole for the power cord. Very frustrating. The fan is also different and careful attention must be given to the directions depending on whether you have an outside or inside exhaust.
This micro seems to be a little cheaper build compared to the old one. But it does have a larger turntable which is nice. Works like a microwave - heats things up. Hope it lasts longer than the last one. If it doesn’t, this is the last GE appliance we will ever buy.

This microwave model was listed as the top model in the wire cutter.com review and it has proven to be performing as they rated it. It is great in every way - works well, performs perfectly.

After a few glitches with the wrong size being ordered (partly my fault) we got the wrong one returned and ordered the new one. My biggest complaint is that it took over 2 mos to get my money refunded and we ended up just using the credit towards another purchase.
Microwave itself is beautiful and works well. Point off for the nightmare getting my refund.
Thanks for the feedback—it's great to hear the microwave is easy to use. We appreciate your comments on heating performance and will be sure to share them with our product team for future improvement considerations. Lauren@GEAppliances

I am enjoying the GE Over the range microwave. It is easy to use, and cooks to expectation. The display is easy to follow and easy to use. It looks great in my kitchen, and matches the other appliances. The installers were very diligent and professional. They did a great job of installing the microwave.

Good product, looks good and works good. If you are replacing your older model microwave, like I did, that was only 4 yrs old, which was this same model just obviously older, the mounting bracket is different and so are the top mounting holes. Which was kind of a pain having to mount the back plate, which of course has different mounting hole locations than the other newer model, and same with the top mounting holes, they have shifted forward about a inch and a half, and if you have a top cabinet that is a bit shallow it will be a bit more difficult to drill the new holes.

It was a sensibly priced replacement for an older GE Over-the-Range Microwave with decent ratings from CR. I don't use it every day but under the same circumstances, I would buy it again.
