Customer Ratings & Reviews

We are very happy with our "above oven" GE Microwave oven and the support and service we got from Best Buy to deliver and install our new microwave.

We love this microwave, mainly because of its looks and the fact that it comes in slate (very few do), but as far as performance, we have had two already that have not lasted long. The first one we inherited when we purchased our house and the house had only been occupied for a year prior to our moving in (so the microwave was only a year old, the house was built a year before). We used it for less than a year before it broke and needed to be replaced. So it had about a 20 month use-life (the GE warranty is only 12 months). We purchased the same microwave to replace it, thinking the first had been a lemon. Fortunately, we also purchased the additional 5-year Geek Squad warranty for $100. After about 38 months of use (a little over three years), this one has also died. So we are waiting for a repair now and do not know if it will need replacing. We waited to post a review until we saw how this one did, but it also did not last too long. If you are purchasing this microwave, spring for the additional warranty because it will not last long. Planned obsolescence at its finest.

Easy to install, great features and pretty quiet The perfect microwave!

Purchased this microwave to replace our 16 year old one. It is the same brand (GE) and was on sale. Works great, love the "melt" function (use to melt butter), and looks nicer than the all black one it replaced. It is noticeably louder than our original GE over-the-range microwave but we are getting used to it.

The Samsung I had only lasted 27 months and the handle would not catch. Samsung gave me the run around and the repair person told me I should just replace the whole appliance for what it would cost me to fix the handle. I ended up buying a new GE microwave and I am already extremely happy with it being a much more solid appliance. The quality is astoundingly better then the Samsung.

Love it just what we wanted for an over the range micro wave it is very easy to clean and we really like the light underneath

Performance, style, and cost I like. Easy to use too!

this microwave is great. looks good & works tremendously. heats up fast!

I needed a replacement microwave and I had the Whirlpool appliances in the past which did not last. So I went back to the old reliable “GE”. It’s durable, dependable and looks good. Although, I found the vent system to be useless and poorly designed because the vent is on top instead of face forward and air flow blows all the fumes up onto your cabinet and ceiling which would eventually damage the ceiling drywall and the filters are not made well enough to catch enough of the food grease and particles and smell from cooking. Aside from this flaw, I trust and stand by the GE brand and I still have my GE Profile refrigerator that was purchased in 1994 and it’s still working great.

We had a long wait due to shipping delays, however the item is a nice quality well worth the wait. This microwave oven is a nice upgrade from our old oven the range microwave. Install was very simple, you will need two people and some basic tools.

First time having OTC microwave and I really can’t be more thankful! Starting from how it saves me space in my tiny kitchen to how it’s big from the inside and has plenty of options to help on my busy day!

Works great and looks great - definitely has power and seems to reheat our food hotter than our old microwave did.

GE Slate Stainless above stovetop microwave. Best Buy had great deal on this product to replace our older model. Delivered and installed, fit perfect. Took old microwave away. Completely happy with the entire purchase.

Very easy to operate, nice looking, heat beverages very wells, all cooking options work excellent.

I bought this as an open box, and it was supposed to have everything in it. It didn't. There was no installation guide or user manual. I ended up getting the user manual online from GE. The person I had install the microwave had the parts we needed on the truck. The microwave works great. good purchase. saved a bundle.

We have had this unit for about a year. Absolutely no issues…vents well, very attractive and quiet.

Had to replace my unit (which may or may not have been an older version of this same thing) and have been very happy with this. Warms up things in a reasonable amount of time, easy to use, etc. Only drawback is the door is a little hard to open, but not the biggest deal

We haven't had this microwave for long but there are a couple of things that aren't major but a little annoying. When you press the control panel, you really have to press hard to command the microwave. I have never had to use this much force to press buttons. Maybe it will "soften" as time goes by. The door is a bit noisey, both opening it and closing it. Again, maybe this will soften in time. These are the only reasons why I'm giving it 4 stars. Other than that, it does heat up your food well and physically looks good. The test will be to see how long it last without any mechanical problems.

Microwaves was Easy to personally install, high quality product.

This microwave has been a great addition to my kitchen. The slate finish minimizes smudging and the microwave is easy to clean, easy to use, and looks fantastic. It was a bit difficult to install with given instructions, but I will admit it was my first microwave installation! :p
