    I have been please with GE microwaves in the past. This model would no longer heat before 6 months of use. It was repaired and now it is doing the same thing again a few months later. Two major breakdowns in an 8 month old appliance is unacceptable. I like all the features when it works but fear the quality of GE has declined or I got a lemon.

    It's a microwave, hard to get too excited. Consumer Reports liked it well enough and it fit the space. Fitting the space was the first priority. It is working as expected

    This replaced an existing microwave. Installation was a bit trick and took a good 2 hours to get right and level. If you are not handy and don't have the tools definitely go for the professional install. The unit itself works great and the recirculating fan is quieter and better then the unit it replaced.

    I needed to replace my stove top microwave, which was only 6 yrs old and of course out of warranty. Since it was a GE I replaced it with another one. I hope it lasts.

    I had purchased the same item previously (1.5 yrs ago) but the repair would cost more than a new one. No extended warranty the first time. They don't make them to last

    I liked this microwave until it broke about two years after using. Paid extra for 5 year warranty with geek squad but it’s been about a month now and they say the parts needed are “unavailable” and have no idea when it’ll come in but also refuse to replace so i have no idea how long I’m out a microwave. If you buy don’t waster your time getting extended warranty buy somewhere else

    The light that shines over the stove top is to far back. Only two screws to hold to the top cabinet.

    We replaced our old (still working) microwave with a new one but I wish I still had the old one. This GE runs very loud and the fan is super noisy. I thought by replacing my 13year old microwave I would have a more efficient and a much more quiet product.
