I’m sure there are much fancier microwaves out there but this thing is a value workhorse. Simple design with features that will meet most needs. This is our second of the same model and the only reason that the first one died after 7 years was bad positioning above our stove and excessive steam exposure shorted out the control panel. Specs are supposedly the same on this one as our last but this one has significantly more cooking power. We’re knocking off 10-20 percent off our normally cooking times. Again, definitely recommend for a sturdy over range microwave but probably not suited for a high end kitchen.

Love the look of stainless steel however you can see fingerprints on it so I went with the slate . Very happy with my choice it is a coated product so if it gets scratched or nicked you can purchase the fill-in through GE

Good over the range microwave with an white interior. Glass turntable sits higher than the previous microwave, which makes cleaning up spills much easier. I like the fact that you can turn off the clock feature since I have a digital clock on my range and don’t need both. It doesn’t feel as sturdy as the microwave it replaced, but I guess they just don’t make things to last anymore. No complaints and I would recommend to a friend.

This microwave was a great replacement for a similar GE microwave. I was able to reuse the existing bracket and installation was a matter of minutes. The microwave works great but the reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the description is misleading and we (us and the Best Buy person) made sure we were ordering the one with a night light but it does not have the night light - we are disappointed. Also there is a small ding on the front but not very noticeable. Other than that, we recommend the microwave. It was a great sale price too!

They called ahead of time to make sure I was at home. Came early and finished in a nice timely manner. Great conversations, explained all features. Covered all areas of where they were working and cleaned up afterwards.

This microwave works very well. It's quiet and efficient.It's spacious. The best part was that I could use the same bracket from my previous GE Profile, so installation was a breeze. My one minor complaint is that the GE logo button is relatively large and ugly...plus it's centered to the whole oven, not the door, so it looks off center - and would either way. Maybe...no logo?? Can't help staring at it...

I purchased this over-the-range microwave to replace a builder grade microwave. I am very happy with this purchase and installing it was simple enough. The vent-a-hood works great and I do not feel any air escaping back into the house (unlike my previous one,) My only complaint is that the mute button beeps with you want to mute the sound instead of just displaying that the device is muted on the screen.

This product does what it's supposed to do. The product was very easy to install. The color is really nice and is easy to operate.

I was so excited to get this microwave to have a real vent for my stove. It was a bit of work but my husband was able to install it without too much difficulty (but he's a very handy guy-you might need professional installation). I'm so grateful to be able to actually be able to vent instead of just recirculate air. The microwave is spacious and seems to work well. The controls are simple to use. The stainless finish does get a bit spotty but hasn't been a big deal to keep it clean (fortunately, the stainless space is much smaller than the fridge door!) I got this for an exceptionally good price during the "40% off open box sale" as it was a display model that was being replaced.

Great microwave for the price. I had a limited space above stove, so I selected the shortest height available on a full size micro. Popcorn sensor works great!

This microwave is fine for my needs - not cooking but other tasks such as warming leftovers. So far my only complaint is that I cannot program for less than 30 seconds. There is a separate button for 30 seconds but sometimes I just need 15 seconds and cannot do that.

Best Buy had exactly what we needed. The product was perfect for our needs. They also had an installation service that was easily scheduled and well trained. They removed our old machine, which was very heavy. Overall, a great transaction!

Very good. Had all the parts and directions to install. I replaced one that it fit perfectly to existing old brackets and screw holes.

This microwave replaced a previous GE unit. Installation was fairly easy and was able to reuse the original wall mount. Unfortunately when it was first turned on, there was a horrible loud buzzing noise that was only present when cooking (not the turn table motor), Called service, they sent out a tech and he ordered a new power transformer. He installed it and now is nice and quiet. The transformer was buzzing because it was manufactured incorrectly and the metal plates were loose. Doesn't say too much for GE quality control.
