The appeal was the air fry feature which I really wanted but didn’t want to lose any counter space. I blew up a plastic bottle of crystalized honey in my previous microwave, so what better excuse to buy a new unit with this feature. It’s also very reasonably priced. First off, this thing is dead silent. The quietest microwave I’ve ever operated by far. Like another user commented it would be great if the buttons were illuminated, but that’s a feature you’re hard pressed to find at this price point. Secondly, this unit is pretty darn compact. The dimensions were practically identical to the unit I was replacing (a Panasonic). The finish is even identical. This thing is also very powerful at 1050 watts. My previous unit was 1100 or 1200 watts, but those 50-150 watts you’re likely not going to miss. Speaking of power, you may want to note that the plug is a down angle cord. I had to buy a swivel extension plug from Amazon, because this plug was sharing the same receptacle as my refrigerator, which is also a down angle plug/cable. Thirdly, and this is actually a negative that another buyer commented on: full manual has to be downloaded off GE’s website. You’re going to need it with how many features this unit has besides Air Fry. For instance, the included quick manual says you need to use the tall rack for Air Frying, but there’s a short rack with silicone feet also included and no mention of what it should be used for. Turns out you’re supposed to use if for Combo Cooking. I found that using the tall rack actually burns food during Air Fry because it’s so close to the heating element above, so I’m not sure why GE is telling you to only use it for Air Frying. I found that the short rack with orange silicone feet works much better. All in all I’m quite happy with this purchase and am excited to try other features and different foods.

Really like the air fryer feature.

The old one was beginning to shed the white coating (paint?) on the inside just before the unit died. This unit has a non-painted interior which should eliminate the peeling problem. Also this unit can serve as an air fryer and also as a broiler/grill. It is a bit smaller, but big enough for our needs. So far – about 3 weeks – there have been no issues at all. We are very pleased with this purchase.

don’t like —> black on black buttons, hard to see, does smoke a bit when cooking, has operated extremly well in all other features, air fryer, convection oven and dual MODE.
One Exceptional feature is the “Metal Detector”, if in air fry or conventional mode metal tray can be used, if you forget tray in over and go for a Microwave over will balk at you and not give you the fire works display.
Not thrilled with the one button Express mode and mom cannot figure out HOW to use all the features of the “Infernal Machine” <— Not the TV remote.
Last unit was a Samsung that lasted nearly 40 years!, hope GE is Still the leader of the industry – it has a great standard to prove itself.
Worth 2 bills costwise, check back in 10+ yrs for update
