GE Microwave

Even though we haven't technically used this microwave yet, we had a GE microwave before and were very happy with it. I don't expect less of GE products and this microwave is just bigger and better - larger and more wattage.

Thank you for your loyalty to our brand! We love this microwave's large capacity and powerful wattage as well, and another feature we really appreciate is the two-step child lock that helps to prevent unintended use by younger family members, providing peace of mind. That lock can be deactivated if it's unnecessary for your household. We're confident this microwave will serve your needs well, just as your other microwave did, and that you'll be preparing all sorts of delicious food with it for many years to come.

Dangerous

The microwave sparks inside the cabin . Tried multiple times before I realized it was dangerous to operate . This is the 2nd time I had a GE microwave breakdown within 1 year. Very frustrating

appliance registration

Your registration page DOES NOT allow the customer to identify what appliance is being registered. It would not allow me to add the particular appliance

Adequate

This microwave is noisier than my last one and shows fingerprints more than I'd hope. Paid to get the black stainless steel hoping to keep it looking nicer.

Perfect Fit

We have only used the microwave a couple of times but so far it seems to work well. Not a fan of the auto lock though. Wish there was a way to disable that.

We are glad that you are enjoying your new microwave, we think you've made a great choice. We love the cooking performance and features, our favorite being the sensor cooking controls. This feature allows the unit to monitor moisture as food cooks and automatically adjusts the cooking time to deliver delicious results. We will be passing your comments about the auto lock over to our product team to review. Thanks again for sharing and for choosing GE Appliances.

Panel lighting too dim

Read-out of time and options on front panel are so dim we have to use a flashlight to see them. Very disappointed that GE did not take into consideration that seniors have degrading eyesight.

Easy to run.

We love our new Microwave as it is easy to use. It replaced our older GE which was over 20 years old. One suggestion that would make the machine perfect: allow the panel controls to light up as the clock does.

GE Amazing Microwave

This new unit looks and works well. It is close in size, capacity, and controls. I hope it lasts like my old GE that just gave up a great 15 years of use.

Awesome microwave!!

So much better than my last microwave! Less wattage, but seems like it cooks faster. Smaller capacity than my old one, but it's perfect! Foods defrost perfectly on the defrost cycle too!

We're big fans of this unit, especially since it offers amazing cooking performance and convenient features. Our favorite feature is the versatile power levels, which offer adjustments ranging from quick high-heat for veggies and beverages to gentle low-heat for defrosting and delicate sauces.
