Good microwave and reasonable price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced a nearly 20-year-old GE unit that died suddenly. This new one is very similar, so it was easy for us to start using. Thankfully, it fit perfectly in the spot, which was a big concern. It doesn’t quite feel like the same quality as our long-lasting old one, but it also doesn’t feel like it's cheap. It does what it's supposed to do and was reasonably priced.

good useable microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fit finish and packing was fine. Touch pad awkward - no back light and no texture or location indicators. Even with the door open with interior light on it is still hard to see the pad markings. Will have to put stickers (?) to indicate certain landmarks for use in dim light. Still very new so will take time to see if heat odors clear up. otherwise it is a good old GE microwave, been using them for 30 years.

Great Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love my new microwave. It does everything it suppose to do and it’s so easy to operate. My old one the door was difficult to open sometimes I thought the door would fall off before I got it open. This one is a breeze. I’m so pleased the delivery and installation from Best Buy was seamless.

Less expensive alternative to Profile line
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced a GE Profile with this less expensive GE option. I thought the installation would be simple swap but the mounting holes and hardware were not exactly the same. Had to drill new holes in cabinet. As far as function it seems to work great. The fan is kind of loud and turns on anytime you hear something which is different from the one I replaced. The touch pad requires a little more pressure than the Profile as well. Otherwise great unit.

Works great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great choice for an over range microwave. The size of the plate is good, and food is heated up well. The vents does the job when cooking. I'm pleasantly surprised on the strength.

This microwave has a good number of options.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave is a GE, just like our last microwave that lasted 14 years. The over the counter light in the old unit did not last very long. We are hoping the new unit will be much better.

Quality Product Great Price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a replacement for a much older LG and is a much nicer unit. We are still trying many of the newer features but are very happy with the GE sensor cooking system on this unit.

Simple, Stylish, and Reliable Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave has been great for us. The bright display panel is clear and easy to read, and the variety of single-touch cook settings on the front are quite handy, whether express cook times or defrost settings. The multi-speed vent fan and the two levels of brightness on the over-the-range light are also useful features. It is also nice to have the rotating tray in the microwave sunken in such that the top is about flush with the inside floor, as even this little bit of added vertical space can make a difference. Overall, a well designed unit that we hope to enjoy for many years to come.

Caution! Not same install as older GE microwave!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great microwave. Problem with install as I bought this one to replace a 10 year old GE microwave. Reviewers told me it used the same install system as the older version. Not true. I had to remove the old installation bracket and reinstall a new one. Added about 1.5 hours to the project. I was not a happy camper about the change as I bought this microwave specifically so I would not have to install a new plate.

Quiet Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The slate color is amazing! It leaves no finger prints and updates the look of any kitchen. My favorite feature is when you enter the cook time the buttons do not make any noise. It cooks perfectly and looks great!

Smart Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Microwave has a sensor inside and when you select a system setting ( e.g. Beverage) it can tell when the beverage you put in is warmed ( regardless of size). Neat feature!

Good for price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Researched microwaves, wasn’t looking to spend a lot but did look for best quality, and display to match color of other appliances. Thought I covered all bases. Turns out display color wasn't what researched so didn’t program time-it’s bright green, not the blue. Quality is ok. Door tinny sound when open/close, stainless handle is overlay. The handle is plastic. Most disappointing was lighting which is in back. It lights backsplash and back two burners rather than whole cooktop. Fan is quiet and does a good job. Sensors not accurate, but overall not too bad for price. I would recommend investing a little more money for a more quality microwave.
