We are happy to hear you are enjoying the larger capacity and features on your new microwave unit. We have heard great review about the air fry feature on this particular model. You can have crispy, never greasy, fried food without the oil and mess. We are confident it will become a fast favorite!
We just got our microwave, to early to judge. You are asking this way to soon! So far all we have used the microwave for is warming food. For sure on my wish list would be that the surface light would have soft white light. I did some reading on the subject, quite a few people feel the same. This dates back quite a ways. They say they love customer feedback??? Thank you Teri .

We appreciate you taking the time to give us your feedback. We will be sure to share your thoughts on the light with the proper teams for further review.
I bought the pvm9179srss microwave & wish to finish installing it but need the owner's manual to install a filter & have been told it doesn't come with an owner's manual. Have been trying to get copy of owner's manual about half the day now with no luck. Please help!

Our new microwave does ALL the things. My favorite features are for sure the air fryer oven mode and the convection bake capabilities. We installed ours in an RV and it makes simple meals absolutely so easy!

We are so glad that you've been loving your new microwave. We think you've made an amazing choice. We're big fans of the "Air Fry" mode, which cooks really crispy and delicious recipes, while being healthier than traditional frying methods.
I've never even considered leaving a review for a microwave but this thing is awful. I could go into a long diatribe about how this thing doesn't cook anything well on the bake settings, it won't brown a pizza even if you give it a month. We had ours for exactly 3 weeks before I tried to use the convec bake option and the microwave MELTED ITSELF. I noticed the next day after a not cooked pizza, that the light in the microwave was not working, when I went to look at the bulb it, receptacle and the end of the bulb had been melted by the convec bake option. So instead of having a working microwave/air fryer/convection oven what we have is a broken microwave (because that's all It's safe to use it for) that has no light and the absolute worst controls I've ever seen, you can only set time with a dial in 15 second intervals and then adjust by 5 second intervals after you've started? Did you guys have anyone with half a brain use this thing before you made it?
Just awful
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So far, so good. No complaints. The oven doesn't seem as hot as my 'regular' oven but I'm still learning how to use it.

This model comes equipped with the sensor cooking controls that automatically adjusts the time and power to ensure the best cooking results. You can also manually adjust the power level using the instructions found on pg. 15 here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--F3owBnOW--/f51573a7201700990cd0ef9d330a0deb0e451ba4.pdf.
Just got this microwave. It has a nice large capacity, seems to work great. However, it does not allow me to set a temperature for air fry. I select manual, and then it takes me directly to setting the cooking time, never the temperature (as the directions state it should). It was bought hoping to be able to get rid of our air fryer. So, I'm a bit disappointed it doesn't work as it should.
UPDATE: GE replied saying the temperature is set at 425 and you cannot adjust. I have attached the photo of page 21 of the manual where it states you CAN change the temperature in manual mode. Have I missed something ????
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
