What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this microwave for its compact design and space-saving functionality, with most highlighting how perfectly it fits under cabinets and suits small kitchens. Reviewers consistently note reliable performance, intuitive controls, and effective heating despite the small size. Many appreciate the 30-second button and quiet operation for everyday tasks. Some mention the internal cavity is tighter than previous models, with taller items fitting only without lids. A few report durability concerns or premature failures, though most find it a worthwhile solution for limited counter space.

Perfect Size!

Would Recommend

We love the look and design. Not having a handle looks sleek. Was reasonably priced. Works well in our small space.

Junk

Would Not Recommend

I think it's fair to describe this unit as complete junk. Aside from being disappointingly underpowered (claims to be 700W), in about a year's time, the interior has begun to rust out, an experience I've never had before with any microwave.

Compact and Easy to Use

Would Recommend

This is a bit smaller than my old microwave which was also a GE (Spacemaker II) so I have more counter room now. I am very happy with this model as it is easy to use and compact but still big enough to accommodate meals.

GE - JEM3072SHSS Microwave - Small, works great

Nice features

Would Recommend

Compact and efficient, 700 W outdoes my ancient 1000W machine.

Does what it is supposed to do

Would Recommend

It is a microwave and it heats stuff up. The wattage is lower than larger units and does require a little more time to cook than the directions on packages suggest. Because the unit is small the buttons are a little hard to read as the printing is small. It has lots of options and features.

Great compact microwave!

Would Recommend

We bought this microwave to have it fit into a built-in nook under our kitchen counter. It matches all of our other stainless appliances and looks great. Heats food quickly and evenly and is very quiet when running.

Same great GE quality in a small package

Would Recommend

This microwave takes up very little space when hung under a cabinet but still provides all the great GE functionality and quality. A tall coffee cup or a 10.125” dinner plate fit into it. If you use the GE trim kit with care, you’ll have a successful install.

It is a good smaller microwave. Fits nicely on counter without taking up too much space and still offers the features and quality we wanted.

Great for such a small oven. I

Would Recommend

My built in microwave oven is no longer available so I had to go smaller. Hard to find one that was not too deep or tall for the upper cabinet space. A dinner plate just fits.

Works well!

Would Recommend

This unit replaced a GE microwave; stayed with GE as we had a good experience with the old one. I just wished that the replacement model had the same dimensions as the old one due to the cabinet dimensions.

Not intuitive.

Would Not Recommend

Why give you all the numbers on the keypad if you can’t use them? We had an old Samsung with a dial. It worked for almost 20 years. This one my do that but I am not convinced yet. For reheat or hotdogs it does the trick.
