Direct replacement - 17 years later
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our microwave has been a warrior, especially in this day and age, where we "Nuke" almost everything! Our unit hit a snag, the keypad was "non-communicato"! It's a GE, let's replace the broken touch pad! The part was $282 and it was refurbished! Got a brand new direct replacement for $300 AND they delivered it to our home for free! Install took about 45 minutes, but nothing major! I hope it will be this easy for you!

Sensibly Priced
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Plastic front finish scratched out of the box
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this microwave to replace a GE microwave I have had for sixteen years. Installed easily. Bought the black finish to match my other appliances. Took protective front sticky plastic off and found scratches/abrasive marks directly next to the GE logo/badge. Beyond frustrated, all I see are these scratches/abrasions. The units I replaced was also a black plastic finish and over its life did not show scratches like this. The control pad section to the right of the door is also loose so when I press a button it moves slightly and squeaks, there is no way to tighten it. Very disappointed with the out of the box deliverable.

Simply a Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a GE cafe microwave (they are very expensive) that I had to replace. I bought this one for a replacement. The dimensions are the same so it fits in without having to replace the brackets that hold the microwave. Its just a microwave ... I don't expect much from them other than to work. It seems to heat up food a bit slower though. I used the sensor cooking too and it seems to work (for example heating up tomato sauce without spilling it all over).

Good functional microwave at a great price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced our black GE Profile microwave with this unit, since the rest of the appliances had been converted to stainless steel. This unit does not have all of the functionality of the previous unit, but we caught it a great sale and for the price it was a steal. Haven't tried the sensor mode yet, so that may raise the rating if it works as advertised.

Great value for sensor cooking microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been waiting a while to find a good deal to upgrade to an over the range microwave from my countertop microwave and Best Buy had this on sale for $213 which was a great deal compared to what over the range sensor cooking microwaves usually sell for. I did change the fan to the re-circulation direction which was very simple to do. I'm very happy with the microwave so far.

Enjoying new microwave ! Nice upgrade !
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced my 20 yr old black GE SpaceSaver microwave with this new stainless steel model . It was a perfect fit in the allotted space above the oven and needless to say the product has come a long way in renovating since the last microwave that was installed at the time the house was built in 1997 ! It does not sound like a jet engine taking off like the old one when in use , can barely here it . It is easy to use and works great !

Microwave Review

GE does it again
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have always purchased GE appliances, they last a lot longer than other brands (our last GE OTC microwave was with us for 18+ years) with no constant service needs like other brands. We love the look and feel (it matches our new GE refrigerator), works flawlessly by heating the food evenly, runs a lot quieter than our old one and the fan, light and user interface is all very intuitive. If we had another kitchen I would buy a second one!
