I purchased this oven as part of the remodel of my kitchen. I really like the microwave, convection oven and air fryer, gives me more options for preparing food. It was easy to learn how to use the oven and fryer. I would recommend this product to anyone, it is so much better than just a microwave.
Great features, Reheats food and beverages fast. Have not tried the air fry feature yet, hopefully it will work as well as the other features. The only downside is that there is no number keypad. One has to use the dial knob to set the amount of time to cook, set clock, timer or any other setting that requires using 0-9. A # keypad would have been much more user friendly, hopefully future versions of this model will incorporate a number pad in addition to the awkward knob. This GE model #PBM9179BR1TS replaced a Samsung microwave that suddenly stopped working. This microwave was fairly easy to install and looks great with my other black stainless steel appliances. Hopefully we will get many years of use out of this GE, I guess only time will tell.
So far I have been fairly happy with my new microwave unit. My only big complaint is that they no longer put a manual in with your unit. The controls are much different from my former units that it is not easy to use many of the functions that are available. I tried to go on line to get one, but that was a real pain in the axx. You should be able to request one that could be mailed to people that want one. When you in your 80s, on line requests are not always easy.
