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.

    Replaced Builder provided GE microwave

    Purchased this GE microwave to replace a cheaper 1.6 cu ft GE microwave which was provided by the builder and lasted less than a year and a half. This new microwave is loaded with bells and whistles. My favorite feature though was the more powerful exhaust fan with four speeds. It also matches well with all my other stainless steel GE appliances. I’ve had this microwave for about a month and like it very much so far. Fingers crossed this one will last a long time.

    Nice looking microwave but the auto fan had ran for days. This is not the vent fan but a built in auto fan that kicks on. Now the turn table doesn't work so I don't know if we got a defective machine but still not fixed yet. Geek squad didn't schedule my 1st appt now I have to wait another week for a new appt

    It's ok but worse than my 20 year old GE

    I'm not too thrilled with this microwave. I had a GE before that lasted over 20 years and was still working but the handle kept breaking so we got this one. #1 - doesn't heat up as fast as the last which was not a high wattage as this one. #2 - the beverage takes forever to heat up. before it was really quick. #3 - there is a "thumping" noise when it comes on (it sounds like the plate is not on properly but it is). #4 - the popcorn option doesn't work well. Stops too fast and still a lot of popcorn to be popped. I don't understand the sensor because I thought that if I selected "beverage" it would heat up and stop eventually when it "sensed" it was hot but it brings my coffee to a boil if I don't stop it. Maybe there is a default adjustment? I like the quick time buttons and the melt feature and the way it looks, I didn't think I would like the inside being so dark but I actually like it. I haven't used the steam clean feature yet. Anyway, I thought we would have an upgraded microwave, instead it takes longer to heat up food/drinks and makes that annoying thumping sound. I read other reviews about the thumping sound.

    An Excellent Basic Microwave

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I am happy with this microwave. It is a little lighter in weight than the GE is replaced. I hope that is will last 10+ years like my old GE. I was a little concerned that it was 1000 watts instead of 1100 like my old one. But I have not noticed any change in cooking times. Maybe they make them more efficient now so 1000 works like 1100 used to work. In doing my research for a new microwave, I notice that most models do not have as many extra features. I think that most people did not used these features.

    We having been using this product for a month now. We find it easy to use. I like the quieter sound compared to our older unit. The temperature for heat food is great and the preset buttons (for example: baked potato) are excellent.

    It a nice oven but why are both the stove top and oven lights so dim and still incandescent bulbs and not LED? These lights should be much brighter. FYI for anyone replacing a GE from 2006 - the mounting holes are NOT the same. This would have been nice to know when I was selecting the replacement oven but the hole templates were not available on the GE website while doing research.

    When I was looking to replace my older GE microwave with a new one, I was looking at manufacturers like Whirlpool. But when it came down to price vs quality (reviews) vs features, this one came out ahead. And I’m glad I got it. No complaints!
