    bought this unit to replace a 10 year old that the fan would not shut off on. same unit and same dimensions so hoped it would fit all same holes and brackets. not! all positioning of anchors different and unit is different even thought same model and serial numbers. lights and filters all different places and not bright enough to see with for over range use. timer complete notice very quiet and exhaust fan very noisy.

      We are happy to provide guidance with this microwave. Microwave designs vary based on the series of the model. We always recommend using the mounting bracket that comes equipped with the microwave, as this will ensure a safe and secure installation. We are however confident that this microwave will serve you well for many years to come. GE_Appliances

    I really like this microwave. It has quick minute buttons. It also is large enough to get a big meal or more than 1 plate in when reheating food.

    The turntable on the first new microwave installed stopped working after 3 days. After much confusion, and several calls, Best Buy delivered another new one, which I like overall. It is easy to use, cooks evenly and looks good. However, there are 2 things I do not like about it. First, the Surface Light is not as bright as our old microwave, which I miss. Second, the vent fan is very loud.

    Microwave came in stock sooner than planned and installation was scheduled promptly. Installer arrived on time; removed old unit and installed new one quickly. He set clock and did a test before leaving. Microwave is very nice upgrade to my old unit...great features and overall look. Nice bright clock, surface light, and 2 speed vent were must haves that this unit includes. Looking forward to trying the sensor cooking feature also. Great buy and service!

    3rd microwave of this model that I have owned. Lasts about 8 years on average The autocook sensor seems to last about 3 years. And the wall mount plate changes every time so there's more work to install than seems necessary if they wouldn't change that part of the chassis design.

    My old GE convection/microwave died after 10 years. This new over the range microwave fits the bill for me as I never used the convection in the 10 years I had it. This unit is easy to use, clean and it’s perfect for my condo.

    Looks great, but not user friendly

    The new microwave looks sleek and nice. However, it is not user friendly. It has two major problems. 1. The vent fan often starts automatically when I close the microwave, and the light remains on, but it does not cook or reheat, unless I shut it close really hard. Then it will function normal. 2. When the food is done, there is no sound indication to remind you that food is ready. 3. The exhaust fan has two levels, even at the lower level it makes very loud noise, which makes it impossibe to talk at the kitchen. Had I known, I would have purchased Kenmore, the brand I had before.

    I purchased this microwave to replace one that been smoking and stop working, I had to go with an option of comparable dimensions and that has to fit the existing hanging metal wall frame. Installation was reasonably easy and it looking as esthetic as expected from a budget unit. Overall functionality is as good as the more pricey one it replaced. Happy with the purchase.

    The GE - 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave is great. I purchased this to replace an older version of this model that was starting to have some problems. So far, I haven't had any problems with this newer model and I am very happy with it. I suggest also purchasing the professional installation from Best Buy. The installer arrived on time and completed the job amazingly fast despite it being a pretty intensive operation. Great job Best Buy!

    We’ve only had this microwave oven for a short time, but so far, so good. The white interior is a big bonus, and is one of the reasons we bought this microwave oven. It’s easy to see what you’re cooking, and you don’t feel like you’re cooking food in a dark cave, as with so many of the appliances we saw. It’s also easier to keep clean, as it’s hard to miss any food that may be left on the white interior surface. We also like the Express Cook buttons as a feature; they are a time-saver.
