A decent built-in microwave

This GE microwave oven is an excellent choice for those that like their microwaves to be more powerful than normal. The inverter technology really speeds up the cook time and heats things through thoroughly. It has many nice features, among them, the ...

quick heating, quick defrosting, quick preparation

Disappointing right from the start

The first thing I tried was heating water for a cup of tea, which seemed a nice and easy way to begin, using the Lunch/Soup setting. We were amazed at the utter silence of the unit. More about that later. After too short a period of time, the unit shut...

Beautiful design, generous interior

Sensor and fan did not seem to work, food not done properly

ConsumerReports' best in class - actually lousy

NOTE: I bought and tested the General Electric JES2251SJ in March 2006.

big, looks nice (until it gets fingerprints all over)

sensor is useless; heating is not even; stainless steel will look dirty soon

NOTE: I bought and tested the General Electric JES2251SJ in April 2005. ------- I decided to take a shot of healthy tomato juice today. Why tomato juice in particular? Because of its perfect viscosity for my purpose: testing the cooking ...

only lasted for 17 months

I have the GE JES2251SJ02 in stainless steel. I have to agree with several of the other posters. My microwave only lasted for 17 months (Feb 7, 2007 to June 22, 2008). Now it doesn't work.

roomy inside. easy to clean

stopped working after 17 months

Excellent Microwave

I'm not sure why so many people have complained about this model. It's actually very durable, large, and cooks anything you throw at it! Maybe some of the complainers didn't take the time to read the user manual?

Inverter Technology, Cooking Sensors, Large Capacity

NONE

Looks and Works Well

We have had this model now for about 4 months. There are no faults that I can see except that it does take up a lot of counter space. It also has a LOT of interior room. It heats evenly and quickly overall...

Its all good

Counter space required(if that is a con)....and pricey vs most others

Lasts 11 months and dies

We had a Panasonic Microwave that would last 11months and die. The problem appeared to be a poorly designed latch system.

Great controls & ease of use. At 2.2CI is one of the largest out there

Poor LATCHING SYSTEM and MICROSWITCH setup

Disappointing Quality

When I purchased this microwave in January 2007 I was looking for an affordable stainless steel microwave. When the microwave first arrived I noticed how "cheap" it felt. The door is flimsy and the whole unit just felt like it was poor quality. In...

Looks nice

Cheap. Broke within a year. The door is flimsy. No one button cook
