    Good, but not as good as our last full 35" model. Power is less than expected. One thing better is sound: this is very quiet. Also has some features like reheat that is good.

    So far, so good. Had a similar (older) model so it was pretty much a swap as far as installation. It sounds louder than the old one but everything is working fine.

    Very happy with this purchase. It was installed a month ago. Has all the features we were looking for and a few more. Operates quietly. Nice looking. LED display is so easy to read. Excellent value for the money!

    I love that you only need to touch one number if you are looking to heat something for 1-9 minutes. We were looking to update our appliances to stainless steel and since we loved our GE that we already had and it still worked great we chose to replace it with another one. So happy we did. Looks great and so easy to use.

    I had a cafe’ series Ge microwave before. I had to basically start over as the wall hanger did not line up with this one. It took about an hour to install. I’m very satisfied for $259. It is a good size and has a powerful vent.

    The microwave that was delivered was a newer unit than what was displayed in the Best Buy store. The biggest difference is the glass tray inside the microwave was larger which was a nice surprise. The installation was quick and the microwave works great.

    The product looks good but the installation was poor. First guy said it could not be done. I removed the old one so it was easy to install the new one.

    The microwave works well, but the control panel is a bit tricky. The fan is so loud you cannot talk while it is running. Both speeds are loud and sound the same. It also sounds too tinny for a microwave in this price range. I would look at others.

    Had a different model and it broke after two years, but it never seemed to work well even during the two years. So this new one is a breath of fresh air. It does not make any noise, the door does not stick, and it does not seem to overheat as the other one did. Plus the set up during the pandemic was flawless.

    Works great and the delivery was easy. Nice features. The only tiny downside is I couldn't keep the turntable from the old microwave. It was the standard size and was too big to fit in this one. We would have used it as a spare.

    We've only had the microwave for about a month but so far I love it! The panel is easy to read and the LED display is a bright white. The light under the microwave is towards the back of the microwave but illuminates the stove well. My only complaint is that fingerprints show up pretty well. Other than that, great microwave at a good price.

    We replaced my old Samsung over the range Microwave, whose door handle and part of the door were cracking after 10 years of use. It has been over a month we have be using the GE JVM 6175SKSS and so far everything works well including external vent for exhaust. I hope this one lasts longer than the Samsung.

    I'm very satisfied with this over the range microwave. It replaced an older model and was previously told that it wouldn't fit because of the backsplash but the removal of the old and installation of the new went very well - less than one hour.
