Good deal for the money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The install was a little more difficult since we had to drill through a tile backsplash. Besides that factor installation was a breeze. Every aspect works fine but the exhaust fan is a little on the loud side. We are hoping that it will go down with some use...

HORRIBLE PRODUCT
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product has been broken since we took it out of the box and plugged it in. The internal fan turned on when we plugged it in for the first time and never turns off so I have to keep it unplugged except when it needs to be used. The turntable was also broken when it arrived. We have had GE Service out here twice to fix it and it still doesn't work properly after replacing the motherboard. My last microwave lasted 12 years and was only replaced so it would match my new range and dishwasher. Now I miss my old one all the time. DO NOT BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK!!!

dont waste your money
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.lasted only 2 years. the keypad control for the light went out after 1 year. now the whole keypad doesnt work. lasted just long enough for the warranty to expire. if you do want it, you should pay for the 3 year service plan.

Happiness short-lived...
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We loved this microwave when we first got it. We actually had purchased a more expensive LG model first and then decided to return it and get this one bc of the better price and it had more of the options that we wanted (express touch; add 30 sec; timer). Not even 2 yrs later it completely went dead on us. My husband tried to replace the fuse, but that wasn't the problem. Then, by accident, we realized that if you lean on the front corner while trying to heat your food, it will work. But unfortunately, that only lasted a couple weeks...now it is completely dead. If you don't want to have to buy a new microwave every other year, I wouldn't recommend this microwave for you. We'll definitely read the reviews more closely before our next purchase!

short life span
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only 1 year warranty. Manufacturer offered no assistance in repair or replace and not cost effective to repair. Sad that manufacturers are not required to provide better warranties for their products. Spent about $250 for it 2 years ago, now faced with spending another $250-$300. It won't be a GE product in any form!

WHAT A DISAPOINTMENT
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A $400 microwave should last more then a year. The unit blew my circuit breaker. After I reset the breaker the unit would not turn on. This unit was used to reheat on rare ocassions. I probably got 24 hours of use out of it and now GE wants to charge $100 to have some one come out and look at it.

Inexpensive and does a good job - nice controls
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only downside was that I had to replace another one just like (by GE) whose handle broke off and could not be replaced for less than $100 and that was after a 3 week wait.

Broke after 13 months
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 13 months, right outside of the 12 month warranty the keypad quit working, rendering the microwave competely useless. GE's solution was to call a repairman to fix the keypad. The keypad costs as much as the microwave, none of it was worth the money. It is now a dry storage box.

No more G.E. for me.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchase a GE Profile Microwave Oven/Hood for a kitchen remodel. The oven was professionally installed on 7/3/2009. Came home on 9/2/10, 14 months later and the oven was beeping. Touch pad was readying, (Service may be required - control Pad Shorted Out) found it interesting that the the product diagnosed itself. Anyway, don't believe in extended warranties. When I purchase an appliance, I would expect it to last at least 5 years. 10 years would be the expected life expectancy. Unfortunately they don't make appliances like that use too. I am very disappointed, NO MORE G.E. for me. Unfortunately this oven was purchased during a kitchen remodel, purchase 3 other GE appliances. Fingers crossed they last longer than a year.

Not Impressed
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At 27 months old I have lost 8 of the touch pads, some of which are dearly missed. It all started just after warranty ran out. GE says to see a repairman. Probably cost more to fix. I feel it should've lasted at least 5 years or more. That's not quality in my book. Will definitly but another brand next time around, thanks for the help GE.

Broke Quick!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This micorwave broke 6 days after I had it installed. Infact, it stopped running Christmas afternoon when we were preparing our feast! Ge came out within a week to fix it, only to find one day later the unit is running extremly loud. Looks like we have to call GE once again!

great microwave for the price
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.replaced old microwave GE with this model. not as fancy as our old one which had a volume adjuster so you could mute the beeping noise...if little ones were sleeping. prev model lasted 11 years which i was told is a long time for products "now a days". too soon to know how long will last but to date good product!

You can get better, but you can't pay more
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Just over one year old, and it stopped heating. Spent $91 on a service call to find out it would cost about $200 to fix. Junk all the way. Stay away from GE products; it is definately my last.

2 years and going strong
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this microwave 2 years ago and never had any issues with it. It is very spacious and has an oven rack, which allows to heat up 2 plates simultaneously. The heating time is great unlike some microwaves that take a very long time to make the meal warm. After using this every day for over 2 years now, I would recommend this product.

Built to go in a land fill
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our GE SpaceSaver Microwave was designed so you have to call a repairman to change the bulbs. The covers open away from you, the bulbs are screwed in backwards and they are sealed in, hence the instructions, "break the seal and gently turn the bulb" mean, break the bulb, spend an hour trying to remove the base, go blind trying to see what you are doing while leaning backwards over the regular oven, then call the repairman, wait 2 weeks for the bulbs to come in, wait an extra 4 hours for the repairman to arrive and then pay them $145! Guess what brand of any appliance is no longer in my consideration set?
