This GE Profile Series PEM31SFSS mid-size microwave utilizes sensor cook options, including options for cooking popcorn, vegetables and potatoes, reheating items and preparing beverages, for simple use. Weight and time defrost help facilitate thawing.
Posted by: BonnieB
Bought this GE microwave PEM31SFSS in January 2016 to replace my previous 8 year old GE Profile microwave of the same size that blew its transformer. The old one worked great with microwave popcorn. This new one never popped microwave popcorn without burning. I tried all different methods of popping. Using the Popcorn feature -no, tried the Cook Time feature and set for 2.5 minutes on varying temp control settings and stopping at various times. All burned the popcorn. It appears because this unit is a smidge smaller inside than my previous version, the classic 3.5oz bags get hung up on the door and back of the microwave as the tray tries to rotate. It ends up burning a hole in the bag and the kernels burn too. GE tech came out and told me there is nothing to be done except use the smaller bags. The smaller bags are useless. I'm going to insist Best Buy or GE let me refund the darn thing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
