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.

I haven't had a chance to use all the features yet (only installed a week ago) but I love the color of my new microwave (to match the refrigerator). Opening and closing the door seems a bit stiff and loud compared to my last microwave - will take some getting used to.

wammy1954 6/23/2022

I love this microwave but my only problem is the counter/surface light went out after a year. I pulled the single bulb out and can't seem to find one anywhere. You mention a cite to get them but it says "not available". Can you please tell me the part # and where I can get a suitable replacement, tired of cooking in the dark.

Mixed review, some good, some not

John7653 6/3/2022

5 stars for how product works when it is working and for appearance. 2 stars because two failed in 6 years (we bought again only to match other appliances, otherwise would switch brands). Also, mounting hole and bracket locations/style have changed despite ordering exact replacement model number, so took more drilling/repositioning than expected for an exact replacement.

Great while it works

MikeSP 5/11/2022

This is our 3rd of these same model microwaves since 2017. To say it's disappointing to have to have replaced 2 in a 5 year period is an understatement. It matches all our GE appliances and so I hesitate to try and find a different model. The first replacement was covered under warranty, but this second one cost us the expense of a repairman to diagnose and then tell us to fix and reinstall was going to be more than a new microwave.  Overall, my kitchen appliances that were all part of this group are good, and hopefully 3rd times a charm with this one.

TjKitch 4/17/2022

After living over a year and a half with a microwave that was missing its handle we were happy to find this. The price was just right and it matched the refrigerator that the previous owners had bought. The microwave is easy to use and was simple enough to install.

Cheap plastic broken door handle

Never buying GE again 3/19/2022

We've had this microwave for about 2 years and the door handle recently broke. It'll cost us $120 for a service call from GE and the actual handle costs $160. Looking at other peoples reviews now, I would've never bought this so that's why I'm writing this. Do not buy this microwave. Do not buy GE products since they seem to know this cheap plastic door handle has been problematic for consumers and they don't care.

Great except for a few things

Vistalisa 3/15/2022

This is a nice microwave. Love the button features. Seems to evenly warm up leftovers. It's terrible at melting cheese when we're making nachos. Totally a weird thing compared to the microwave it replaced. It's also kinda goes crazy when popping popcorn. Don't try to do more than one bag every five minutes because it will just give up. You can put a second bag in there, and it will run-but it won't pop. Then the vent turns itself on just to add more drama to the confusing situation. It's so strange. It seems like popping a few bags should be a pretty basic function.

ErinS88 2/8/2022

We purchased this microwave in the Fall of 2017 and within the first few years, the handle broke off. We bought a replacement handle (which was $120) and the handle broke off AGAIN! This is beyond frustrating! The parts are clearly very poorly made. I would not recommend GE products to anyone.

CJF2022 2/8/2022

First purchased JUN2017 and used mainly to warm up dishes or cook popcorn. Lasted until SEP2021 (4 yrs 3 mo). The quoted repair cost was almost the same cost of a new microwave. So I opted for a new microwave, hope it lasts longer.

Rostov3461 2/5/2022

Had to have the installers come back to check the fan. They said there was something blocking after the first improper install. Well ... Left vent fan better then right. If your cooking on front burners nothing gets sucked up. Not the best. Could it be the install again.???? We had the Professionals. The wave itself is ok seems a little slow but liveable

Inferior quality GE brand?

Tiffa 1/25/2022

Our previous GE JVM6175EFES no longer operated properly as of 1/1/2022, it was 5 years old. The replacement that we purchased was this model, JVM6175EKES. When this new microwave was delivered, there was no GE logo or anything that would identify it as a GE product on the box. The box label read, "Over the range Microwave oven". Sadly, this microwave is built cheaply and looks that way too. I removed the circular medal GE emblem logo from the broken microwave and added to this new one, bc even the logo looked cheap, maybe it isn't even a GE product? Disappointed customer.

It works hope it last longer than the old one

jay2815 1/15/2022

We replace our 3-year-old microwave with a model that had the control panel on the side instead of the door. Three service people told us that most of the current microwaves are not lasting as long as the old models. They notice a higher repair replacement in the units that have controls in the door as opposed to the side of the microwave. If you have a problem you have to replace the entire door, We bought this one due to the slate color matching the other three GE appliances installed in 2017. This unit has a lower investment cost. The unit has a good look with the other appliances, crisp design, and is easy to operate. Sensor buttons are stander popcorn Beverage, Reheat, etc Quick cook 1-9 and other features. So far it is exactly what we need. We got the warranty for $69 in case we need it. I would get a home warranty for everything in the kitchen and laundry as in today's world it seems repairs come more often than before. Typical service calls $80 to $110 plus labor/parts etc. Our experience with GE factory Service personnel was excellent and restored confidence in our purchasing decision. Back in the '60s, I worked for GE in Upstate NY @ their capacitor plants. I have confidence in GE's mission statement and the customer service is excellent.

Purchased this to match my GE range. Love the slate color! Microwave is pretty high-powered, heats my food/drink quickly. I love that it is a double-duty microwave/vent fan, so that I don't have to buy an additional appliance. One of my favorite features is the under-microwave light (2 settings), it's great for nighttime or early morning when I want to get up & make a cup of tea without turning on bright, overhead kitchen lights!
