Works great. It heats very quickly. I'm impressed with the sensor buttons. The dinner plate function reheats the food just right. Good value for the money. Highly recommend.
I had to change my microwave because it was on its last leg. I have a GE refrigerator and I love it so I thought I couldn't go wrong with a GE microwave. Oh boy, was I right. I thought I would get a good price from the store but this is a great deal for the money! The microwave has really good power, a great look and is the leading brand. Installation was a breeze with all the assistance in store, on line and all that came with this product. I won't need a new microwave for a while but you never know. My man cave is almost finished. Keep up the great work. This was well worth the money. I know I made the right choice! Thanks
The GE Microwave is like that reliable friend who always has your back. It won't recite Shakespeare or brew artisanal coffee, but it'll pop your popcorn to perfection. And honestly, isn't that what matters most? If you're in the market for a good microwave that's practical, efficient, and doesn't take itself too seriously, give this GE a try.
I had a GE before and I had a long time but this GE microwave 1.6 cubic ft is so much more quiet and I just love it and I like the stainless steel black because of not showing the marks as well with your fingers! And it looks like these products are made in the USA!
This was a perfect fit for our kitchen pantry. Has the same cooking area and more power than some of the bigger models. Has all the features that are needed along with the sensor cooking option.
I was looking for a larger countertop microwave to replace a very small older one. I chose this one because it was stainless steel, fit the space I had perfectly, could coo much larger amounts of food, and had the highest wattage of models I considered. I was not disappointed. It is a great microwave! It works as expected and cooks food evenly and quickly. I use my microwave daily. My only improvement would be to have brighter lighting on the keypad.
The best feature about this microwave is that it cooks frozen dinners really well. While my previous microwave always burned my chicken pot pies, this microwave cooks frozen store bought chicken pot pies really well and never burned the crust. It also heats up leftovers evenly so I can enjoy more of my food. Using it daily for just about every meal.
This is my third GE microwave. The first one lasted a few years. The second one lasted only 14 months; but, at least the controls were consistent -- including the Express Cook buttons (essential). I tried another 2-letter brand microwave next; but, it lasted only 2 weeks before arcing and smoking (on potato in wax paper). Just as well --the operating instructions required pressing too many buttons and were in paragraph form, more than a page long. This, then, is my third GE microwave (replacing the competitor microwave -- which wasn't supported online, so no droid diagnosis, not so smart). I'm disappointed that the 00:00:30 button is in a new location on the GE 1.6 cu.ft. model. It will be more difficult for elderly people who are losing central vision to AMD; but, I cut out a frame of bright yellow paper, and I taped it to the control panel, so that she can feel it, and heat the instant coffee and oatmeal. FWIW, 00:00:30 with a lid was very, very hot. So far, so good.
Like the product, just wish they would last longer, 3rd one purchased in 6 years. First one lasted a little over 3 years, and the 2nd one just 2 1/2 years. We've read the reviews on GE microwaves and they have good ratings and should last 6-8 years, for some reason we don't seem to have much luck with our purchases. Hope the one we just purchased holds up longer than the previous ones.
It steams up the cupboard above it! I have to open the door so the steam won't damage the wood stained door. I have white appliances & the window has a black grid not a white one. I am getting use to the look but the steam going up the cupboard door is a pain! We have had 5 microwaves in different homes & none of them did this.
