    It’s a great microwave. Installation took 3 people and was not a quick job. The fan is very loud even on low (only 2 speeds), hence the 4 stars.

    Love that I can use the timer and cook with it at the same time. The alerts are not too loud or annoying. SO much better than the old one. Great purchase!

    This unit was to replace the original one in my home. Its a little smaller than the one I used to have but I have no complaints about how it works. It also looks great!

    This micro wave oven does every thing I would expect no matter what price range. Left overs are reheated regularly which saves a lot of time which is great..

    This is the perfect black microwave. We needed a black one tha had all the same features of our old one. Any other color or finish would not look right.

    The product works fine. No second shelf, if that is an issue. A little more work to enter work time.

    Only giving this 4 stars because I haven't hooked it up yet. But it matches the three other appliances, so I'm sure it will be great.

    Looks a good product but the 1st time it failed in less than 5 days. It just stopped working. Then I called Best Buy and they sent me a new replacement, and I hope it last forever as every other microwave

    Our original microwave, purchased with the house finally gave out. Was worried I wouldn't get one that was the perfect fit. This fits the bill perfectly.

    Fit right in to my existing opening. Installation instructions were very explicit and easy to understand. Love being able to turn off the turntable for larger dishes.

    Working great so far. I had a GE microwave before as well. Both the old and new ones were not great with their vent fans.

  • Disappointed in lighting

    As a microwave it’s fine. Does what it is supposed to do. We have had many over the range microwaves over the years. This is the first one where the light is placed so poorly on the underside of the microwave (Located in the very back) that it provides minimal illumination of the stove top. If we had realized it when we were buying we never would have purchased it. Very annoying.
