    Loudest Ever Microwave/Vent

    Very loud and high pitched fan. By loud I mean really really loud. Louder than any other vent fan I've heard. And it comes on whenever you microwave. I'd stay away from this one.

      Hello there, we're so sorry to hear you're seeing smoke from your microwave. We're sure this is worrisome and we're happy to help. First-time usage of a microwave may produce some smoke. This is typically a very small amount and is perfectly normal. However, if this persists we recommend taking advantage of your warranty and scheduling service with a certified GE Appliances technician that will be able to accurately diagnose and repair your appliance. You can do so by calling GE Appliance Service at 1-800-GECares (1-800-432-2737). We hope this information is beneficial to you and we're wishing you the best. - Guy@GEA GE_Appliances
