Decent for the money

Just purchased so we can't speak on it's reliability or it's overall heating. It does look nice. We like the large capacity. The interior light unfortunately is almost useless. One small led that does not project very well. As for the child lock complaints I read. It's is a one button simple unlock or a quick combo to disable altogether. Instructions are in the manual as well as an added sticker on the face of the microwave for those whom just plug and go without reading the manual 😀. Purchased on sale great value for the cost.

Not best choice

This is just a little too cheap. It replaced a 25 year old microwave that had better functionality than this one! The door and sounds (beeping) are too loud. The power is too low and it takes much longer to heat food than expected. It does not even have a popcorn sensor to know when the bag is done. I doubt I can return it, but I would if I could. I hope this review helps someone else.

Recommend

Bought to replace 24 year old GE microwave. Unit is good. Only miss that there's not a reheat function as the other, but otherwise, good microwave. If you need instructions, like me, then go to the GE website, using the model number, and download the instructions for use.

Cost efficient

The GE 1.1 cu. ft. Capacity Countertop Microwave Oven is a solid budget-friendly option if you’re looking for something simple and cost-effective. It gets the job done for basic heating and reheating without breaking the bank. The size is practical for most kitchens, and the controls are straightforward and easy to use. That said, it’s not without its drawbacks. The biggest issue is the noise level—it runs noticeably loud compared to other microwaves, which can be a bit jarring, especially in quieter spaces. It also doesn’t heat food as quickly as expected, so you may find yourself adding extra time more often than you’d like. Overall, it’s a decent choice if affordability is your priority, but if you value speed and quieter operation, you might want to consider other options.

Good microwave, heating limitations

Good micriwave, went from a 1200W to this at 950. It really does take multiple times to get something hot. I needed a new one and thought i would downsize. It has a smaller footprint which is desirable. However, just know sometimes it will take twice as long to reheat.

Locking door

I love GE microwaves and when our finally died after more than 10 years of daily use. We bought this one for a quick replacement because we wanted to test downsizing. We love it so far EXCEPT for an irritating lock they have put on it. Everytime it completes a cook time, it locks the door. You have to unlock the door before you can open it. Therefore I am giving 4 stars because the lock is so irritating.

Great microwave!

This microwave is the right size for my kitchen and simple to use. I love the quick preset buttons and add 30 seconds button... I use them for almost everything. Defrost works great too. The best part for me is that it is easier to clean than my last one.

Bulky

I can't complain about the price, it's really cheap, but the microwave's door is very hard to open and bulky. I really don't want to carry and make a trip to return it!!!

good

This is a good microwave. The description said it was quiet but it's so quiet sometimes I have to check to make sure it's still on. The only issue I have is the number panel is so dark that even with a light on it's hard to see the buttons
