The only negative is that it was a challenge to get a manual and now that I finally have it, there is no explanation of the differences between convection bake, convention roast and air fry. It seems as if there are multiple buttons that actually do the same thing. However, the product itself is good, it's been installed for about a week so far and does the job well.
Thanks so much for reviewing your microwave. We're quite happy to hear that you do love your unit and what it can do. Our apologies on any confusion about the cooking modes. We'll provide some explanations on the differences. Convection bake: Ideal for evenly browned baked foods, and great for large quantities of baked goods. Achieve good results with cookies, biscuits, muffins, cream puffs, bread, angel food cake, and so on. Convection Roast: Recommended for larger, tender cuts of meat or poultry. Heated air seals in juices quickly for a moist and tender product. Heat comes from the broil (top) element on some models, and on newer models from the broil (top) and bake (bottom) element. Air Fry: A special Direct Air Convection mode that is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. Common foods you might use with Air Fry are chicken wings or nuggets, potato products, vegetables, appetizers, jalapeno poppers, cheese sticks, pizza bites, etcetera.
The Air Fry mode uses hot, fast-moving air directed from above to surround the food you are cooking. We hope this helps. Let us know if you have any questions. Mike@GEA

Our new GE Profile over-the-range microwave is very flexible with lots of cooking options. We just used the convection roasting feature to roast lamb chops. They came out very well. I love all the features and can't wait to try many of them. It's working very well and was a solid choice.

LOVE this microwave. It cooks so evenly-never any hotspots. It’s so convenient to “spin the dial” to add or subtract cooking time, and the versatility of it is amazing! I use it as a microwave, of course, but it is also an extra oven for baking or for air frying. Both of those additional settings have been so helpful on several occasions. If I were to remodel or move, I would purchase this exact same microwave for my new kitchen. It is great!

The product was purchased to replace a 10 year old system. I do not use it often but I like the fact it takes up a little less space and offers the convection oven option.
We're glad to hear you're liking your replacement unit and the convection option! We truly appreciate your loyalty to our brand, and we're confident the new microwave will serve your needs well for a long time to come, just as your last unit did.

I didn't know there were microwaves with convection ovens built in until I came across this one. I am extremely pleased with this product. It looks good in my kitchen and functions just as well. Just remember to read the instructions first.

I bought my first GE Profile Microwave January 2002, dependable for 23 years. I replaced it for another Profile that includes an air fryer and convection oven. What a deal. I’m am very pleased with this purchase, hoping it will last 20 years or longer. Best Buy is a company I depend on.
I would recommend this to a friend

So far it has been a decent purchase. Unfortunately the company who I wrote prior to ordering is not real responsive or understanding of the issue I posted. I asked what was the total space required to install the unit and to insure that the door didn’t hit my pantry. So I asked specifically how much the door added when fully opened. Their response - it’s designed to fit in a 30” space. WRONG! It takes 31” to fully open the door if you have a wall on the left side.
Hello - We appreciate your feedback regarding your new microwave, and we apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced with the installation information provided. Should you have any concerns or questions, please send us a private message on any social media platform and we'd be happy to assist you! Thank you for choosing GE Appliances for your home. -Kacie@GEAppliances

Great combo unit , replaced stand alone air fryer and regular microwave

Excellent over the range microwave & air fryer oven combo. The heating sensor option works really well and the air fryer works better than the air fryer machine I had.

We bought this to replace a similar microwave that was 8 years old. So far, so good, it adds new features we didn’t have in our old microwave- Air fryer for example. Optimistic that it will be awesome, but I have bought an LG and a GE microwave in The last 6 months, and 6 in the last 20 years:

The microwave works great but trying to figure out the air fryer is frustrating. GE did not supply any information about instructions and when I called to get the booklet was told I had to print it myself as they were going green! If It was installed I would have returned it. Getting the hang of the air fryer but it is frustrating! Very unhappy with GE!

Great OTR Convection Microwave. Easy to use, easy to clean. This was a breeze to install when I replaced my old vent/light. I would recommend this to everyone.
Thank you for choosing us for your home! We are happy to hear you like your new unit and it fits great in your current space. This is a really nice unit that is sure to impress you with its quality and features for many years!

This unit is exactly what we wanted. The controls are easy to figure out and the unit performs flawlessly. The food heats evenly and quickly. We have not used the convection part of the unit yet as we haven't had a need to . Holidays are coming and we will probably use it then.

This oven replaced my old GE Profile, which I loved. This one has an air fryer option, but there are no directions for its use - no recipes either. I hope I figure it out soon!
