Alas! Short Lifespan
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased April, 2019 to replace an older GE model which was over 16 years old and still working. Replaced to match color of our new stove. Unfortunately a BIG mistake as this unit started to show signs of trouble before reaching it’s second anniversary, and as of this past weekend no longer heats. What gives GE, should I have bought one of your competitors instead?

I would recommend this to a friendProduct as advertised and works great.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well built with a not too hard installation. Was a little scared to attempt putting this up but took my time with the proper tools and was done in an hour. it was important to have electrical box in the proper location prior to installation. Also to have hole big enough to let plug through to cabinet.

GE Over the Range Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased in October 2020. Quit heating January 2022.

I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Control panel
Not happy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Control panel is not very readable in the best lighting. When low light on in kitchen you need a flashlight to see controls. Whole panel needs a backlight,,,,
