    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.

    So far so good. Previous GE microwave shorted out at the rack holder, at 9 years installed. This GE has no rack, is very easy to use, does an excellent job. Hope it lasts well.

    We wanted a basic microwave and this delivered. No complaints so far relative to performance. I do wish the menu options were easier to navigate. The last GE microwave we owned had a larger screen for text so you could see more menu options as once. The price was a big driver for us and it had a very competitive sale price.

    It's a microwave, does what I need/want it to do. Like the fact that the turntable is flush with the bottom of the microwave. Only issue I had immediately was if I didn't have enough overhead light on, I couldn't see/read the control panel. It is more of a black on black. Now I'm use to where the ones I use are so it is no problem. It does have a smart feature: if you hit a control and there is nothing in the oven, it won't start, it will tell you to place item inside?? Very cool.

    This microwave replaced a similar GE Profile model that included a convection oven capability and had suffered either a circuit board or magnetron failure after about 5 years. The size was an exact match but the installation bolts were a little different. We seldom used the convection oven feature - found it to be lacking in capability. But this microwave is doing great and is a champ. Highly recommend if all you are looking for is a nice sized basic microwave

    Weird thumping sound when the microwave plate is spinning. Weird power-like surge at the end of the heating, warming, and defrost cycle. Not sure what that’s about but it doesn’t seem to affect use of product
