We had some troubles initially. There was a loud rattle upon installation. The GE mechanic came out and couldn't tell what was wrong with it. He assumed the fan, and ordered a new one to be shipped to me. He then installed it a few days later. He said there was nothing wrong with the original fan once he removed it, but I haven't had any rattling noises since the new one was installed. I was skeptical that this oven would be any good since we had these problems right from the start, but I've been happy with it's production. One other comment: it seems to cook things much quicker than recipes call for - so I've learned to minimize the time. Not sure if that's because it's so new or not?
This oven was not cheap, although not top of the line either, but for a moderately priced oven, we were sadly disappointed to find out, after the fact, that this model does not a have a light switch. The only way to turn the light on and check your food is to open the door, and you do not have to be a professionally trained chef to know that you do not open the oven door while baking! The first thing we looked for after installation was a light switch, so that we could turn the light on, look inside and admire our new oven, and surprise, no light switch, needless to say, we have since fallen out of love with our new oven.
I have had this product for 6 months and am amazed at how long it takes to pre-heat. Also if you have it at one temp and want to change it it must be turned off and re-started in order to change temperatures.
I've been using my new wall oven for 5 months now and love it. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it doesn't have an oven light button choice. You can only view what's cooking with a light by opening the oven. Otherwise, everything works well. The controls are very easy to use and completely intuitive. I picked this model over others because it was reviewed as being very quiet and it is! We have an open concept house plan and the oven is practically in the living room, but the oven cool-off fan is not an issue.
My oven was installed yesterday and I am pleased with it, even thought I only tried it once. My main concern was a review about having to open the door to get the light to come on. That sounded to me counter intuitive and it would be, if it didn't work so well. YES you do have to pull back slightly on the handle to get the light to work but you only pull back enough to engage the light switch.
We bought this unit approx 6 months ago and it has been perfect. It is only lacking a switch to turn the light on inside the oven when you are using it
