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...

So Nice We Bought It Twice!

Would Recommend

Bought this to replace the same model (JES2251SJ02) workhorse that finally quit working after 10 years of heavy use. Need I say more? Great product!

Not that happy

Would Not Recommend

This is the second microwave I have had to purchase in 3 years. The button to open the last one quit working. I’m not particularly happy with GE appliances, but that’s what fits above my oven and I want it to look the same. I hope this one lasts longer

Exact replacement

Would Recommend

We purchased this new microwave to replace the old existing microwave which we had for 17 years! It performed flawlessly for years. We were surprised that they still carry the exact microwave! Another great GE product.
