GE microwave
on February 22, 2026
Posted by: GE Washington
from Bellevue wa
Capacity is really good and pretty large inside. My main issue with it is that the vent noise is pretty significant compared to earlier models with same CFI rating. That is my only complaint other than that it is pretty standard with all the standard features

Does the job
on February 23, 2026

I'm surprised at how well this functions. I have just been using the microwave that came with the condo, which was apparently 15 years old. This new one is so quiet and heat up food so fast. It also has a clean, neutral, neutral look, that blends in well with every type of kitchen

perfectly adequate
on February 25, 2026
Posted by: Dustin9000
This is a nice microwave, exactly what you expect out of a microwave. But when did a simple basic microwave get so expensive? its a flimsy metal box but so essential. After the installation the top is clearly bowed near the mounting bolts, seems there is little to no support other than the thin metal casing. otherwise no complaints, it cooks well and fits plenty.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good but not a fan of the vent
on February 28, 2026
Posted by: mommyto4inMA
Overall, the product is good. Personally, I'm not a fan of the Express Cook features. I'm old-fashioned and prefer to put my own specific time in. It just makes it an extra step for me.
Also, the automatic vent is OBNOXIOUS! If I'm cooking on the stove top or have the oven on, the vent automatically goes on after about 10 minutes. And in this day and age, it's way louder than it needs to be! My last microwave vented automatically but after a good 30-45 minutes of the stove top being on and was not nearly as loud! I wish there was a way to turn this off!

We'd like to provide some information on your microwave's automatic fan feature and assist with the fan's sound level. An automatic fan feature protects the microwave from too much heat rising from the cooktop below it. It automatically turns on at low speed if it senses too much heat. The fan will automatically turn off when the internal parts are cool, so it may stay on for 30 minutes or more after the cooktop and microwave controls are turned off.
For assistance with the vent fan's sound level, we recommend to make sure the unit is installed properly using the installation instructions that you can find here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--3zVZ6b3I--/vqrklyymb0rawbf15cm1.pdf.

We are so excited to have you as a part of the GE Appliances family. We are confident that you will enjoy the convenience controls this microwave includes such as the "Add 30 seconds" button. This button will quickly and conveniently add 30 seconds to any cooking time. This appliance also includes many other heating features that we believe you will find useful. Happy cooking!

Works well.
on March 3, 2026

In order for this microwave to be perfect for me, I would like to have a shelf to store my covers. The GE emblem could be somewhere else, I know it is centered in the door. The "Surface Light" can become very warm when left on for a while.
