I would recommend this to a friendGE Microwave kept breaking down after repairs
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this microwave because it gets very positive reviews, but we scored a lemon. 6 months after we purchased it. It stopped working 3 separate times. GE sent a repair guy who ordered parts and fixed it. 3 weeks later a different part failed, the thermostat. Same process and 3 months later it broke down a 3rd time. Appears to be the thermostat again and now we had it. No more GE microwaves.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendHumpback Whale
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had since Aug. 2022, now as of Dec 2024, the magnetron is going bad, sounds like a sickly humpback whale. Sadly this is my 1st dealing and major appliance purchase (stove, refridge and dishwasher) for GE appliances and I am less then thrilled to have to buy another already.

VERY Loud buzzing Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am surprised there are so many good reviews. This microwave is super loud. I had an old GE microwave which stopped working/heating, and was producing a loud buzzing sound. This new microwave has similar loud sound. My heart rate goes up when this is microwave is on. Note that there is no loud sound if you use reheat. But for other settings like Express Cook, there is this loud buzzing sound (which is as loud if not louder than the vent fan. The vent fan sound is at least more pleasant) I exchanged it once, and it has the same sound. Tired of exchanging again, I had a technician come over to check it out. Technician says it is normal. My 12 year old GE microwave was much quieter.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Buy the name doesn’t keep there words of saying price match guarantee. Don’t trust on there this guarantee it’s a lie… I bought this microwave and price dropped after 2 week when I went for price match they said they can not do price match because item was already discounted. That was very disappointing…
