Pleased to get it, and it's operating well - however - I'm generally disappointed in the general lack of substance in most major appliances these days. It's exactly what I was looking for, but overall - it feels rather 'tinny.'

Last GE lasted only 5 years but bought lowest quality one thinking there all the same. Moved up a little on this model. Door works better than last one and a little quieter. Hopefully last longer. Another reason I went with GE is for simple install to match old one, but they had to drill new holes.

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.

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.

This is a great choice for an over range microwave. The size of the plate is good, and food is heated up well. The vents does the job when cooking. I'm pleasantly surprised on the strength.

This microwave is a GE, just like our last microwave that lasted 14 years.
The over the counter light in the old unit did not last very long. We are hoping the new unit will be much better.

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.
Hello, Thanks for leaving a review! We appreciate you choosing GE Appliances and we're glad you like this model. We're always receptive of feedback and we'll definitely pass along your comments regarding the fan to our engineering staff. It's a pleasure having your business and if any questions or concerns should arise, please let us know. Have a great day! -Sylvia@GEA

Great microwave and easy to use. It does a good job venting.

This was a replacement for a much older LG and is a much nicer unit. We are still trying many of the newer features but are very happy with the GE sensor cooking system on this unit.

Replaced an old over-the-range micro. Best Buy installation service was top-notch. GE microwave was an excellent value. Good quality, good price. Would buy again.

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.

The slate color is amazing! It leaves no finger prints and updates the look of any kitchen. My favorite feature is when you enter the cook time the buttons do not make any noise. It cooks perfectly and looks great!

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.
