We had our GE Microwave Model PVM9179SR1SS yesterday and it was dead on arrival. I guess there isn't much to say but not happy that we have a higher end model that we spent a lot of money and it doesn't work. I don't know what to do. Stay with GE or go to a competitor?

We recommend making an appointment with one of our Bodewell technicians, please call 1-833-4BODEWELL or visit this site: https://www.bodewell.com/schedule-repair-service.
This replaces a GE microwave/convection oven that lasted close to 25 years in my home with daily use. I hope this new one lives up to the old! My only reason for not giving 5 stars was color. My kitchen suite was all in Bisque. I know, no one make Bisque anymore. My best second choice was the lightest stainless I could find and it's such an energy drain as a color. It still feels very dark. The white is too sterile. The Bisque is a warm welcoming color and I don't know why it's been discontinued.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We think you've made an amazing choice by going with this model. We will be passing your interest about our bisque finish over to our product team. Thank you so much for choosing GE Appliances and for sharing your feedback.
This my second GE Profile convection microwave oven. All good so far, but there are a two issues that keep it from 5star rating. First and most annoying is the loud ventilation fan in any setting especially on low setting. It has a howl noise that is annoying. Secondly, the clock display cannot be dimmed and is too bright.
Time Light on top is bight; hard on eyes. Rotating 'Plate' is poorly designed; hard to put into place. The old model we had a groove and kept it in stationary position while rotating. This tends to wobble around, and lose its position! Labels on control panel hard to read (small).
I would recommend this to a friend!

We love that this model comes equipped with the Air Fry feature that allows you to cook crispy foods without the need for oil. Our products are designed with durability in mind, and we use high-quality materials to manufacture our appliances. The glass turntable should only be used when microwaving and not with the convection or combination cooking mode. You can find information on the cookware to use with each cooking mode on pg. 10 here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--F3owBnOW--/f51573a7201700990cd0ef9d330a0deb0e451ba4.pdf.
