Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very well priced, in stock and was installed in a timely manner
I would recommend this to a friendLanguage Barrier
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There was a language barrier with the installers. IT was very difficult to understand them.
I would recommend this to a friendTwice arrived damage
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ordered and the product was significantly damaged. Reordered to replace and the product was again damaged. The issue is more so with GE than with BestBuy because the boxes that the installers came with were in perfect condition. Meaning that someone from GE keeps putting defective products in boxes.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendWorked for 1 week
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 2nd GE microwave. My first was out of warranty and it was cheaper to purchase the same model microwave than to repair the poor thing. One week in service the new one just went black. Thankfully GE is sending a repair technician to fix it. My previous microwaves lasted until we remodeled the kitchen. Hopefully this isn’t the new norm.

Points Not Given that are owed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product is great! But beware, Best Buy will NOT give me reward points I’m owed! This is the last purchase I will ever make, as they do not stand by their programs or purchases!

Don’t Recommend At All.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible. I’d never recommend this product. Apparently it was the fan that was a mess. Customer service helped me pick out a similar one, 1.6. that’s fine.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendIt couldn’t be installed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy. I was told it didn’t matter how much space between the stove and microwave, because it was an electric stove. When the geek squad arrived, they came in, measured, said there wasn’t enough room, and off they went.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to return it, because It was very loud. The door wasn't level. I tried to use Best buy website to return it and get the label to be shipped and didn't work, I had to drive more that 45 miles to return it.

Stopped functioning after only 2 months
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only had this microwave for two months and it completely stopped functioning. It does not turn on at all and there is nothing wrong with the power outlet. Now I find out that the returnable date was two days ago. What a waste of money.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this about a year and a half ago and don’t use it everyday and the handle broke off!!! It is above our stove and I’m wondering if the heat from stove caused this but our last one lasted at least 5 years!!!
