Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

GE customer for many years

Bell53 5/14/2026

I have been a GE customer for my microwave many years. They last a long time. I have noticed each purchase is a little less quality than the previous one. The air filters on this one barely stay in. The microwave options and performance are fine.

Product is Okay, but Installation was Poor

SRahman 9/22/2025

The moment we open the door, it feels like little flimsy and light weight, not solid. The bad installation might be an issue, but I am unable to reach out to the installation department. They are not responding as of now. The heating seems to be very good by the way and it is spacious.

$300 Piece of "Garbage" - AVOID

macmanjimmy 1/4/2025

It's a terrible piece of garbage; the keypad membrane is incredibly difficult to press, and the turntable is sloppy, skips, and clunks. Additionally, figuring out the cooking time can be challenging, especially for double-digit seconds, except for 30 seconds. a $50 GENERIC 1.1cu ft 1000Watt was leaps and bounds better than this

GE 1.6-cu ft 1000-Watt 29.875-in Over-the-Range

malrifai 10/26/2024

The GE 1.6-cu ft 1000-Watt Over-the-Range Microwave offers a reliable blend of performance and functionality, perfect for mid-sized kitchens. With 1.6 cubic feet of space, it provides ample room for family meals or larger dishes. The 1000-watt power level ensures quick and even heating, making it convenient for everyday cooking tasks. It includes useful features like preset cooking options, a turntable for even cooking, and a two-speed ventilation system to help reduce kitchen odors and smoke. Users find it user-friendly and well-suited to basic cooking needs. However, it may lack some advanced features found in higher-end models. Overall, it™€™s an efficient, budget-friendly choice for anyone needing a reliable over-the-range microwave.

WGM470 1/31/2024

Microwave is very load. Internal fan turns on automatically whenever microwave is in use. Seems low powered and takes longer to heat anything than other microwaves we have owned. Exhaust fan does not draw in any air but this could be an installation error by park model manufacturer.

BG13 1/14/2024

The keypad is flat and you have to push real hard for it to register. I foresee it wearing out in a year or two with having to replace the whole thing after having one for 20 years. Things are made cheaply.

Sofa king 12/1/2023

We™€™ve had this model of microwave before. It lasted 15 years of lots of usage. I™€™m very happy with the microwave. The only drawback is when I went to install it. There was not a cabinet template. It said there was and there wasn™€™t . It made installation harder than it should have been.

Disappointing Features

RotationRingNeeded 11/11/2023

The quality is much less than that of the old microwave when it was working: 1) the number buttons on the control panel that is on the front of the oven, are very hard; they have to press hard to get the oven to start working. The buttons on the old oven were of a soft touch and easy to use 2) there is no AM/PM button for the clock 3) by the third use, the rotation ring on which the glass rotation plate sits, became twisted and bent out of shape and is no longer usable.

Terrible quality, died in 6 months

NoMoreGEEEE 6/12/2023

This microwave worked alright for a whole 6 months, then would no longer put out heat. Look at reviews on multiple sites, this is a known problem with GE microwaves, especially this model. The microwave looks like it's functioning correctly, but the heating element no longer works. When I tried to contact GE support to schedule a service call, they gave me a runaround for an hour before trying to redirect me to call a different phone number and try someone else. They also couldn't confirm that the service call wouldn't cost me anything, even though the microwave was only 6 months old. I'm staying well away from GE from now on. What used to be a trustworthy company is getting cheaper and cheaper in quality with their products and their service.
