I had a countertop microwave, Air Fryer (french doors) and toaster oven. By purchasing this affordable condensed unit I was able to clear the clutter. Unfortunately, GE offers no online, or phone support for accuracy of USING the unit - I am not a TRIAL n ERR chef :(

Hello there,
We're sorry to hear you're having trouble using your new microwave! We know it must be very frustrating to have a new microwave and be unsure of how to use it properly, we're sorry for this inconvenience.
We do have a Use and Care manual online that we're confident will help you in learning to use your new unit. It included descriptions of all the features, which to use for types of foods, and how to properly use it feature. You can view this here: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-7000158-1.pdf.
We're sure that you'll be cooking delicious food with your microwave in no time! However, if you have additional questions that need answering, please let us know. We'd be more than happy to assist you.
haven't used all features but to many interactions to get something cooked compared to 25 year old last unit which was better engineered for customer use.
We have always loved GE appliances. They are reliable and now more in tune with technology which is a plus! This micro/oven is a must have! Plus an air fryer?!! What’s not to love.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your microwave and all of its great features!
Thanks so much for the review, and should you have any additional feedback, please reach out to us!
Generally, the microwave works fine. But there are some major caveats that bring down its average rating. The first is that you can't set the timers by 1 second intervals. Default is 15 second intervals, but if the timer is already counting down then you can alter it by 5 second intervals. HOWEVER, there is NO place in the user's manual that discusses either of these limitations. Next - the air fryer. It's great to have the option, but nowhere in the manual does it say that this model has a fixed temperature of 425 degrees for air frying. I had to call customer service to figure this out. The "manual" option for air frying only lets you set a timer and nothing else. So, if you want to air fry at any other temperature, you'll need another air fryer. The last thing is related to construction/product quality. The timer knob feels so flimsy. I expect it break within a year or two. Overall, disappointed with the lack of information in the user's guide. It's basically a few pages that say, "Look! You have buttons!"
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love how versatile this microwave is. Having an extra convection oven during events like Thanksgiving dinner make this microwave perfect. It's spacious and feature-rich, though I would have liked to see Wifi. With Wifi it would have easily been 5 stars. It DOES have bluetooth and syncs with my stove though and I'm very appreciative of that!
