Terrible looking front panel.
on March 18, 2025
Posted by: Jamminjimmyd
from Phoenix
When light hits the bottom panel of the microwave where all the controls are housed, it looks like a wrinkled mess. When the microwave is being used it's impossible to see inside due to the low level lighting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It is a microwave
on May 16, 2025
Posted by: MJ_No2
from Chicago area
It's a microwave. One of many on the market. There really is nothing remarkable about it. It works. It works fine. It Bluetooth paired with our new GE stove, which is one of the reasons we bought it. Since purchasing it I have seen other microwaves that mde me wonder why GE didn't do something more remarkable with the unit, like LED surface lighting. The window is very small, and while I know it is not GEs fault that I am not tall, it is difficult to see what is happening inside the unit.

Love having the controls all across the bottom of the unit. Easily accessible for short people like me.
Really nice looking. Our last GE microwave lasted 16 years!

A disappointing start
on July 28, 2025
Posted by: microwaveuserupset
Smaller capacity than old version of the same model. Old model had 2 bulbs for use when cooking, since this is above the stove, this has 1 barely useful bulb (less than a nightlight).
So far, real disappointed GE took steps backwards.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do Not Buy, Model Significantly Changed
on August 9, 2025
Posted by: Gears123
We purchased this model in 2019 and really liked it until it stopped working in 2025. So we purchased the exact same model ( PVM9005SJSS) to replace it.
However GE has changed everything about it and made it cheaper, smaller, and noisier. So many nice features were deleted. What a rip off.
The box shows the PVM9005SJSS, but in much smaller print and on the sticker in the microwave it
says the model is now PVM9005SJ8SS.
says the model is now PVM9005SJ8SS.
The capacity says 2.1 cf still but the physical opening is 3” narrower and 1” shorter. But never fear! GE bulged out the sides for those oval dishes to keep that 2.1 size, nevermind you couldn’t fit the dish in anymore.
The unit weighs at least 5lbs lighter because they shrank the magnetron, so now it takes twice as long to heat anything! Wow, that is a nice feature too!
Buyer beware in 2025, don’t make the same mistake we did. Get another brand of appliance.
This one is going to the scrap heap.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We are so sorry to hear that your new replacement microwave has not lived up to your expectations due to the capacity and performance. The model PVM9005SJSS and PVM9005SJ8SS are the same model microwave. The '8' located in the model number located physically on your microwave indicates the series of the model (this is the 8th series of this model). Your feedback is extremely important to us. We will pass these comments along to our product team to review.

Short Lifespan
on August 22, 2025
Posted by: Lady Lemire
from St. Louis, MO
Microwave is less than 3 years old and is completely shot! Started sparking and smoking this morning.i was so excited to finally have aesthetically pleasing appliances in my kitchen and to free up counter space with an above range microwave. It’s now junk that is a fire hazard if plugged in. I do not recommend this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
