    We purchased this microwave as an open box item, citing it was in excellent condition. The bottom has been banged up pretty good and fairly dented in, as well as the top, thankfully it still works and those damages are not visible. The screening on the front was cut and that damage is visible. After waiting over 3 weeks because the first microwave was lost in delivery we were so desperate to have a microwave we just decided to keep it since it worked.

    Replaced a non-working ge profile microwave with this one. Even though the microwave say "countertop", we have ours mounted in the cabinets. Had to make mods to the original mounting hardware, but after adding a few more holes, the microwave fit perfectly.

    GE Profile Microwave

    We had to replace our built-in microwave and this GE Profile was the only one we understood would fit into the existing opening. The new microwave has less power and takes longer to heat the same items, it also sounds very tinny when opening and closing the door. The inside is also black and not a bright clean cream color. To save the extra reinstall cost we decided to keep it.

    Received a damaged product. Microwave door has dent on it. When I contact the support I was told return window is closed. Be careful buying online from BB. Customer service is really bad.

    I love this microwave, but sometimes it's smarter than I am. It took me a couple of times to understand when my renovation was going on and somebody was unplugging the microwave that if I already put food insid, then plugged it back in pressed Express 1, it demanded that I put food in the microwave before it would power on. At first I didn't understand the way it presented this demand. "FOOD", it said. Once I opened, then reclosed the microwave door, it worked flawlessly. Thank goodness it's not as complex as my smartphone.

    Our microwave that we installed when we built our home 4 years ago broke and we were stuck having to replace it. After multiple attempts we finally found a microwave and trim kit available that fit. This GE model PES7227EL5ES worked perfect with the 30” slate trim kit model number JX7230EL2ES.

    It’s more compact than the one it replaced. But it looks great next to our dark slate GE fridge. We installed the built-in kit ourselves, and it looks great.

    A very poor job by Best Buy misleading the buyer by posting wrong dimensions in their web page . This oven is huge compared to what ever is advertised and doesn’t even fit my space . Check the dimensions what ever Best Buy is showing and the actual dimensions on the box that I posted below . It’s going back right away .

    Burns Popcorn

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

    One of the few things we consistently cook in the microwave is popcorn…and this microwave seems to burn it every time. Previous GE Profile did not. Does fine with other foods when no finesse is needed. Your choices are burned popcorn or unpopped kernels. Plus light bulb has already burnt out in less than one month.

      We hate to hear you’ve had difficulty with preparing popcorn, as well as an issue with your light bulb. We know that must be frustrating. We can advise it may be necessary to reduce the cook time for your popcorn, because of variability in how it cooks even within the same brand. Popcorn also may not cook properly if it’s old, if you use low fat instead of regular, etc. We have more details in an article on our GE Appliances website titled ‘Microwave Reasons for Burned Popcorn’; if that may be helpful, you can look up the title on our website and click the ‘Support’ tab to view it. For your light bulb concern, you may want to consider taking advantage of your warranty; you can view warranty details by looking up the model number on our website, going to the product page and viewing the Use and Care manual. We hope this information is helpful. GE_Appliances
