Does the job

12/28/2018

Bought this microwave to replace a space saver GE model. It was the only one that would fit. It does the job but doesnt have all the features. The keypad requires effort.

6 month review

12/27/2018

This is a basic unit. It fits well within my existing cabinets and was the reason I purchased. It is 800 watts vs 1000 for other units I have had so it takes a little adjustment. My biggest issue with the unit is that the control panel is hard to read especially in low light. The panel wording and numbers need to be in a brighter color or it needs back lighting. Also some of the presets e.g. reheat use cryptic description like plate telling me nothing about the reheat time or power level. Overall I am satisfied with this unit so far for the price.

An adequate microwave

12/24/2018

Had the microwave a month now...it was a replacement for an earlier generation model which lasted for 13 years...the buttons are not as crisp as the one it replaced nor do the buttons dont light up which was always a nice feature during the evening hours...it seems that the sheet metal and the construction in general is much more flimsy....But since the dimensions were almost exactly the same I was able to install this one as a built in with minimal difficulties.

Great little microwave

12/18/2018

This unit was purchased as a replacement for an older model GE unit. Its size fits our kitchen cabinetry. Three things that are somewhat bothsome: 1. Though the height width are the same as the previous model the new unit is deeper. This causes it to stick out a bit more and interfere with a nearby cabinet door. Im working on that. 2. The interior is not as well lit as before and the door glass is masked more making it difficult to see whats happening inside. 3. The finish bell is not as loud as the old units bell and the unit is quieter while operating. Not a bad thing but coupled with the bell issue...annoying.

Too wide-why did GE make new model 1/8 inch wider

12/8/2018

Why on earth would you make this newer version 1/8 inch wider when it is designed to fit into cabinetry So annoying that what I bought to replace my old GE microwave doesnt fit into my kitchen. Just shows blatant disregard for your customers. The microwave itself is fine just beware if you are updating your appliances.

Not impressed.

12/6/2018

This unit replaces a previous model GE Profile microwave that failed after 10 years. I have only a 13 shelf in a small kitchenette so I am quite limited on the choice of microwave that will fit that shallow a shelf. Out-of-the-box I wasnt wowed by this new model. After using it for a while it definitely feels less solid cheaper construction and the thing I find most annoying is GEs choice to use gray lettering on the buttons as opposed to the white lettering I had on my previous microwave. Unless you have bright light in the room good luck reading the button labels. Its a perfect example of design-change WITHOUT testing. Also this new unit is more noisy than my old unit -- the turntable makes a rapid clicking noise where the old unit had a smoother sound.

Looks and Size

12/6/2018

We bought this unit for two reasons. First to match existing GE Profile appliances which it does beautifully. It is a great blend of industrial modern and practical. Second it needed to fit into an existing space without any additional escutcheon or flanges. The dimensions provided in the specs that we reviewed prior to purchase were helpful and exact.

2nd one in 4 years

12/6/2018

We remodeled our kitchen in 2014 and purchased this unit. 4 years later it broke. Ill leave that there. Our cabinets were designed for it so I ordered another one. The door seems flimsy not solid like the 1st one. Also the turntable makes a ticking noise I cant isolate.

Older model was better

12/4/2018

Had to purchase this microwave as my older model was no longer being made. The panel numbers etc. is grayed out so it makes it very difficult to see. The older model had white numbers. Also numbers are harder to push on this panel. It seems I really have to push down on the number in order to get the microwave to start. This is not a very good microwave for seniors. I will look for another brand once this one poops out on me in 10 years.

Prefer my old Spacemaker microwave

11/29/2018

This is the third Spacemaker microwave we have owned. We purchased another because we liked the previous ones and they fit in the space available. The previous ones did not have a turntable in fact the first one had a shelf. Not all microwaveable vessels are round some are rectangular and are not able to rotate. I was able to put more than one item in the old microwaves thats not so easy with a turntable. The border including the open button around the front of the oven is stainless. That looks nice but always has fingerprints on it. It is impossible to open the door without touching the open button thus fingerprints Our old Spacemaker was also the stainless model but the edge including the open button was black and showed fewer finger prints. A bigger issue is that there is no instruction manual. So far I am not able to use it in anyway but at full power and only by using the 1-6 buttons which cook 1-6 minutes. Whenever I try to change the power level I get an incomprehensible message.

Small but Mighty

11/8/2018

I purchased this microwave to replace the same model I had purchased fifteen years ago. It is shallow in depth and so sits nicely on a shelf below a wall cabinet. It is powerful enough to do what I need it to do -- cook a frozen item reheat leftovers or warm up my coffee.

Sleek compact large capacity

10/27/2018

This is my fourth of this model over 22 years. I designed a kitchen cabinet around it - chose it because of its narrow depth so it fits in sleekly with my contemporary kitchen. I did give up power for that - at only 800 watts you need to cook most things just a bit longer. I love the unit but am just a bit gun-shy as the paint in the top interior of my last one bubbled and began to peel exposing metal. I was told it wasnt covered under the extended warranty because it didnt affect the functionality of the oven. I wasnt comfortable exposing my family to peeling paint and whatever rays were bombarding around so I tossed it. Just hoping this one does better. Its pretty pricey for a unit that you can expect to get four years out of but Im stuck with the size needed and it does look great and cook great for awhile.

Change in profile series

10/12/2018

I am replacing previous GE profile which only lasted 3 years with this newer model. Noisy when operated compared with previous model and not as sleek looking. Much boxier while previous model had curved lines. Needed to purchase this model due to space. They also changed position of under cabinet bolts so had to redrill new holes. Also pricey compared to units of this size.

Fits my space perfectly

9/29/2018

We purchased this particular microwave because it fits my shelf space exactly as it needed it to. It replaces another GE Profile Microwave. Overall it is an excellent good quality product. We like that it doesnt sound tinny or feel flimsy. It would get 5 stars but we find the numbers and words on the buttons difficult to read. It would be better if they lit up or something. I also wish it had been available in at least 1000 watts but the 900 gets the job done.
