So far so good

Would Recommend

It is far larger than a standard microwave, and I really wish I would’ve realized that before I ordered it because it doesn’t fit properly in the space where I generally put my microwave. So definitely take measurements because this is not a standard size, and the back juts out so it doesn’t sit flat against the wall. And did I mention it is GIANT? But that’s my fault for not measuring. So far, it has been phenomenal. I hate to review things I literally just purchased and I usually wait a ye...

Same size as JES2051SN2SS

Would Recommend

Replaced our previous JES2051SN2SS GE model after a valiant 11 years of service. Our trim kit fit this model even though the reported dimensions were slightly different (width) from the GE website. Here's to the next 11 years! Years ago we switched away from Kitchenaid and moved everything to GE and it's been the best choice ever. Our switch was guided by the appliance repair company here in town based on how GE wasn't just "testing" and sending back out the previously returned circuit board...

Price matches value.

Would Recommend

The price matched the value of this countertop appliance. It was a good size and set up easily. It has a child lock that was simple to disable following instructions that I came across easily. I would buy this again.

Reliable and long-lived

Would Recommend

This is the second time I’ve bought this model. The one that just died this morning had a tag that said it was mfg.’d in 2009, so I would say we got our money’s worth in 17 years of daily use. Easy to use, control panel is super user-friendly. I considered a brand that had the inverter technology, which would have been the only reason to consider a switch, but in the end, the reliability of the GE model is what convinced me to stick with a tried and true unit. In fact, I seem to recall I had a G...
