Well Designed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The three biggest features this has are:
(1) A handle to open the door with. The push button door openers always seem fickle, if not durable.
(2) The unit's weight.and foot construction is such that the unit does not slide around on the counter top when you are pressiong buttons or opening an closing doors. I didn't have to juryrig something to keep this from moving around when opening the doors like I did on the push-button open models.
(3) Further, in regards to the push button feature on the other units, they have now become ridiculous to use and enjoy. Microwave now come with "added Safety Features" to prevent children from doing whatever children have discovered to do with a microwave. We started with another brand that was on sale. However, that unit required pushing two buttons to open it. Anyone with arthritis or who are even a little challenged with coordination is NOT going to like that over-though "safety" feature. It was simply not well designed. This unit simply locks the door while under power and you have to push the open door button when reaching for the handle. It is really not an imposition. I like this design much better. I understand that ALL manufacuturers have had to move to a higher level of idiot proofing use of the appliance. Like comedian Ron Green says, "You can't fix stupid!"
So in some regards writing a review within the first few days seems premature. However, I will say that I am impressed with the unit so far. Getting used to a few features will always be an issue, but this one seems have designed in practical, if not easy to use features. I like it.

Great Buy

I honestly can't say enough good things about my new GE microwave! From the moment it was installed, it has been an absolute game-changer in my kitchen.
First off, the capacity is fantastic. It comfortably fits my large casserole dishes and even handles that oversized popcorn bowl with ease. No more awkward maneuvering or worrying about things not fitting properly!
The controls are incredibly intuitive and user-friendly. The buttons are clearly labeled, and the pre-set options for things like popcorn, beverages, and reheating are spot-on. I also appreciate the quick-start buttons for those moments when you just need to add 30 seconds. It takes the guesswork out of microwaving.
And can we talk about the dimensions? It slid perfectly into the designated space above my stove – it looks like it was custom-made! It's so satisfying when an appliance fits exactly as you hoped.
But the real star of the show is the power and wattage. This microwave heats food so quickly and evenly. No more cold spots or waiting forever for something to warm through. It's efficient and powerful, saving me time and ensuring my meals are perfectly heated every time.
Overall, this GE microwave has exceeded all my expectations. It's a wonderful addition to my kitchen, offering a great combination of features, capacity, ease of use, perfect dimensions, and impressive power. If you're in the market for a new microwave, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this GE model a serious look!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great "Nukulator"

Exactly as advertised capacity, size appearance. Controls are simple and easy to use. Heats quickly and evenly (I'm glad I got the 1100w as I've had the 950w before) Fortunately, I have a large space for it as it is a large unit, be aware. Installation and start up was as easy as plug and play (Literally).
I would recommend this to a friend!

Handy feature.

Our microwave oven is under our island countertop. The option to disable the child protection feature makes opening the oven easier. We really appreciate that the door opens simply by pulling the handle.

This is one of only a few good quality microwaves that has a door handle instead of push button door opening that fails in time. This microwave is also full of usable features and is a large 2.2 cu ft.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is so quiet compared to other microwaves we've had. Love the handle to open-also quiet in comparison. The choice of control features is great. Large capacity which is nice for a big family. Excellent power. Really heats things up quickly and evenly.
I would recommend this to a friend!
