    Works just fine-exactly what we needed and expected. The installer was very thorough and efficient. Very good value.

    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.

    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

    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.

    Less expensive alternative to Profile line

    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.

    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.

    Installers were on time, made sure everything was working on microwave, set time of day on microwave, and provided overview of operating instructions. Microwave works well and matches the GE stove, both of which are stainless steel

    Simple, Stylish, and Reliable Microwave

    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.

    Nice upgrade.... So far.

    Bought this microwave to replace another GE model a year older that didn't last. This one is a definite upgrade with more features and nicer overall build despite being similar in price. I do like that I can turn the volume down and that the automatic sensing functions seem to work well so far. The real test will be to see if it can last longer than 18 months. The only reason I bought another GE was to keep it matching my range.

    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.

      We love hearing that your pickup and installation went well and are glad it met your price point. This is a great microwave that has many great features, including the add 30 seconds button and the on off on the turntable for larger casserole dishes. Thanks so much for your purchase!

    Yes, I would I buy again. So we've had it about a month now and it works well. Looks great on the outside. Inside is basic- maybe standard is a better word, but it wasn't worth it to me to spend more for the upgraded interior. Like the controls. fan is good. install was straight forward - no problems. and it cooks well. Feels solid. A stupid thing, but I like that it just has the logo emblem on the outside and not the name written across the front.

    So far so good. Previous GE microwave shorted out at the rack holder, at 9 years installed. This GE has no rack, is very easy to use, does an excellent job. Hope it lasts well.

    It’s fine for a basic microwave. This replaced an older version of the same model that stopped working right after the warranty ended. I hope this will last a little longer than just the warranty period.

    Seems to run great, door isn't as noisy as my other microwave. One thing I dont like is where the light is. It's in the back and unless you cook at the back of your stove, you'll like it, not enough light for the front of stove (if you have the microwave above your stove)
