GE Black Friday Saving Event Rebate

Offer Expires: 11/6/2024 to 12/4/2024 Must be postmarked by: 1/4/2025

Receive up to a $1000 rebate with purchase of 2 or more qualifying GE Appliances. Rebate form must be postmarked by 1/4/2025.

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.

Carol Viny 7/2/2022

The microwave above the stove is so easy and convenient. It's very easy to use and there are no many settings, that it makes heating or cooking a breeze. The light has two settings along with the exhaust.

Volume Control ... Sigh ...

LeeDC 6/17/2022

I'm really kind of disappointed there is no volume control for the beeper. For those of us who are a bit hard of hearing, this is quite unsatisfactory. (I can always use a timer app on my phone, if it is only a timing setting, but if the sound is tied to a function like defrosting ... nope.)

Lasted only 3 years

BernieA 6/14/2022

We bought this exact microwave and began using it in January of 2019. In April of 2022 it was dead. Tried several repairs to no avail. I hated to do this, but because it is Slate in color, a built in, and matches the other appliances in our GE set, we were pretty much forced to by the exact same microwave. Bummed. I'm assuming this one will be "disposable" too.

Lower quality than previous model

RR14420 5/22/2022

In comparison the previous exact model, this one feels and sounds tinny when closing the door. The glass turntable is raised about a half inch instead of being recessed. It is lacking a printed reminder of cooking times for various features on the inside of the door. I hope it lasts longer than the last one.

Buttons are hard to see

SKad1970 5/3/2022

The microwave works fine. The buttons are very hard to see, the either need to be lighter in color or backlit. We only bought this to match what we already have but our first GE microwave and refrigerator both had to be replaced within 7 years. Things just don't last like they used to!

Second microwave, already glitching

Mraz1 4/7/2022

This is the second of this microwave we've had in about 5 years. This last one was installed in November and it's already glitching. I'm sure it's only matter of time before it dies too. The parts are so expensive it doesn't make sense to fix it. The color limits my options. I'd rather go back to stainless steel than buying this again. Don't buy.

Togo_2022 4/5/2022

Best microwave I've ever owned. Simple, easy features, and sleek looking. Only thing I wish it had was and extra vent speed. It goes from high to low, but the low setting is louder than i would like, but other than that its a great machine.

I like the look of the slate finish. It's easier to clean and doesn't leave scratches and dents like stainless steel does. The one dislike is the control panel buttons are somewhat hard to see, especially if the lights are dim in the kitchen. Otherwise, the product performs well and very quietly.

Refurbished/ Poor quality

Moas 3/29/2022

This is more like a Replica to be fair.Vent Fan is always on. This seems as if it was put together by using parts that aren't GE quality. Something seems fishy. The shud on the door isn't smooth, the build quality isn't anywhere near as the previous ones, and it seems like it was fudged together using rough finished materials.
