Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the overall performance of this microwave, which many users find superior to standard countertop models. Owners frequently highlight the generous capacity, intuitive operation panel, and quiet noise level as standout features that improve their daily experience. While the unit fits well in various kitchen spaces, some users have noted that the buttons require a firmer touch to operate effectively.

    Not made as well as same model that failed that was almost 5 years old. The stainless panels over the plastic shells are thinner metals. Keypad requires harder press than previous one,Wall mounting plate is thinner gauge metal than previous one ( same model number).Size is good. power seems accurate.

    I’ve had this microwave for less than 2 months so can’t speak to reliability, but so far I’m really pleased with it. Some of the newer models are a bit convoluted but the touchpad on this thing is totally intuitive, The numbers and display panel are large and easy to read. And this might sound silly but I like that the LED display is white instead of green on the black background. Just easier on the eyes. It looks perfect with the same brand (GE) oven/stove. And yes, it heats the food up just fine.

    Only have had it for about one month. Replaces similar GE microwave which we had for almost 8 years. We like the size, controls, power and familiarity.

    Perfect replacement for my original GE over-the-range microwave. Installation including removal of old microwave was less than an hour (almost a plug-n-play replacement). I like this one better than the old one, as it has sensor cooking, nicer keypad with more options, easier mounting, and better, more predictable performance (this unit is 1000 watt, old one was 1100). If there was a con, it would be that it took a little over a month to get the unit due to current supply issues. Also, this unit was manufactured in China, not in Kentucky by GE. However, the quality of this unit appears to be just as good as the one it replaced (so far, so good). The unit being on sale didn't hurt either and was a deciding factor in purchasing (Best Buy had the best price and selection). Would recommend this unit and Best Buy highly. :)

    I love this microwave. It's got so much room, I could fit a full-size turkey in there if I wanted to nuke a turkey... which I don't, but still. Nice to have options. Easy to use, as well. I really like the control panel layout.

    Lots of great features but it is a bit noisy especially as it starts up. Except for that I love it. Easy to operate. It does a great job of replacing an exhaust fan, cooks food evenly.

    I am extremely please with this over the stove microwave . So easy to operate, well lit inside as is stove top which has two light settings. Easy to clean interior. Runs quietly and the installer provided by Best Buy was profession and cleaned up all the packaging plus hauled my old microwave away. I would buy this model again.

    This microwave replaced a previous one and we had a few goals in mind. 1. A better working hood 2. quiet and 3. doesn't look like a train-wreck. GE hit it out of the park with this one. I don't like the way over the range microwaves work and look one bit, but still wasn't in a position to replace with a much costlier vent hood, so in an effort to replace our broken one in the interim, we didn't want to spend too much either. The vent hood could still draw more, but given the fan sizes and limited space, it does a good job. Actually draws way more than our old Fridgidaire and 10db quieter. That's 10x quieter. We can finally think while cooking for a change. GE got the look right too. Very sleek and modern looking by hiding the vent hood just behind the door, instead of the traditional grill. Price wise it was a bargain too. There are lesser priced ones, but this one ticked all the right boxes.

    Replaced Microwave with updated model

    We were disappointed when our first GE over-the-range microwave quit after only 6 years. It had had one major repair. We always liked the way it worked though. Slate color is very hard to find and we had purchased the GE suite in slate. We ordered the updated version of the same microwave. Installation was a bit tricky as they had changed the brackets and the fan had to be moved as we vent through the roof. Once installed it looked great and fit very well. The handle doesn't feel as sturdy and the closing latch sounds kind of weak. We had seen reviews noting the handle didn't hold up. Keeping our fingers crossed and using the microwave multiple times every single day. It works well!
