Awful
on January 22, 2026
Posted by: Unhappy 111111
Ventilation on this appliance is very inefficient. It heats fine and works be a good review if it wasn’t for the lack of proper ventilation.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're glad that you are loving your new microwave. This is a great model and we know it is going to serve you for many years to come. Our favorite feature is the two-speed, 300-CFM venting system, which helps remove excess steam and smoke that accumulates when you are cooking.

Bad fan
on January 23, 2026
Posted by: Tucks2673
Microwave looks good but the vent fan is complete garbage, every other day I have to spray and wipe down the cabinet above it because there is a coating of grease on it that gets blown out the top of the microwave when the fan is turned on.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We would like to help and provide some information. This model can be vented one of three ways. Recirculating, Outside top (Vertical Duct), or Outside Back Exhaust (Horizontal Duct). If the model is not vented to the outside, the air will be recirculated through a disposable charcoal filter that helps remove smoke and odors. Moe information about this can be found in the manual on page 15 at the link below. https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--3zVZ6b3I--/vqrklyymb0rawbf15cm1.pdf

Buttons hard to find,
on January 24, 2026
Posted by: J K
Micro heats very well, with easy one push 1-5 minute times.
Unfortunately, like many other products these days, the buttons are not easy to push, as they require your finger to be exactly in a specific small spot. Makes for a lot of pushing trying to find that spot.
Also, the light is not very bright. The high setting is about what the low setting was on my old micro.

The large capacity and 1,000 Watts of power that the JVM6175YKFS offers is the reason why it can deliver a fast, reliable performance with even cooking for your meals. Express Cook is also one of our favorite features because it's a quick way to set cooking time for 1–5 minutes. If you believe there's an issue with your microwave touchpad, we recommend you schedule an appointment with one of our Bodewell technicians by calling 1-833-4BODEWELL or visit this site: https://www.bodewell.com/schedule-repair-service.
We'll be sure to pass along your feedback on the brightness of the surface light to our design team for review.

Posted by: Allaboutcomfort
I couldn't be happier with my new microwave!! It's easy to use. Works great!! Controls are understandable. Plenty of room inside. Insulation was pretty easy. We just had a very tight spot to install it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GE doesn’t want to honor warranty
on February 4, 2026
Posted by: Aaron114
from LebanonTN
Microwave keeps blowing the fuse - had electrician to come verify it wasn’t wiring or breaker box. Trying to get GE to come inspect the microwave and honor the warranty has been very difficult
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
