Highest quality

Herr Professor from Eugene, Oregon

This was a good investment. At an excellent price [$], we got a highly-reviewed (ConsRep) and truly high-quality microwave. It's large and powerful, has dozens of applications (described in detail in the manual), and is relatively quiet (for the power). We had to get used to the power, because our previous one was quite weak -- so go easy on the minutes! The machine is also good looking (it's big, yes, but it doesn't feel massive). The stainless steel surfaces stain easily (fingerprints), but cleaning is easy too -- just a little water (light surface clearner for tougher stains) and a clean, soft cloth to polish. I hope this great impression holds for longer than the first month. Read more

Carbon Copy of my Panasonic from 2000

Carbon Copy of my Panasonic from 2000

oaktownlady from Las Vegas, NV by way of Oakland, CA

I Was Shocked When It Arrived! I had never seen this oven in person prior to placing my order, only the photos online. This oven was purchased to replace an aging Panasonic NN-T990SA bought in the year 2000. It wasn't being replaced because it no longer works, it has just seen its share of wear & tear over the years. Several times in the past I bought & returned other ovens and kept going back to my old but reliable Panasonic, and even brought it with me when I relocated from another state. When the GE Profile JES2251 arrived and I opened it, other than the name brand, modernized design, and the placement of a couple of control pads, I found it was IDENTICAL in every way to the 7-year old unit it was replacing! Same size turntable and rack, measurements identical, and even the frame parts are interchangable. It was also immediately noticable by my mate and you know how rare it is that men pay much attention to appliances! This was great-no learning curve needed for either of … Read more

Very nice

edm from Maryland

There is not a lot to differentiate between microwaves of similar size, but I do find this one to be a bit nicer and higher quality than the Panasonic that it replaced. The door seems to open and close more quietly and smoothly, and control panel is a bit simpler and more versatile. Also, the inverter is used not just for defrosting, but also when lower power levels are selected. This results in more even heating and less splattering. Perhaps it is also a bit quieter when running and it defiantly produces less RF interference with radio. Read more

Well made but confusing control panel

Well made but confusing control panel

Joan in the snow from Peck, ID

I use this product for cooking, reheating, defrosting, etc. I have been using a microwave since 1972. What I like about this microwave is it is like another brand but much better made. It doesn't make noise when the carousel platter is turning (my other one sounded like it was crashing around or off of the ring) and I like that the microwave floor has two large bumps in the front to prevent the dish from moving outward by accident. I also like the quality of the construction - it is easy to clean and very well made. The sensor reheat and sensor cook feature works very well and the food cooks evenly. I like that you don't have to punch the control panel to get it to register like some - you just press the buttons nicely. What I don't like is that the control panel is confusing - not the display (it is just like the other brand I had) - just the buttons. I had to put an arrow on it to point to the Start button -- they are all grouped together with no color to differentiate it. I … Read more

Just as Good the second time around!

Just as Good the second time around!

Joan,the Speedy Cook! from Elizabethtown,KY

I use this product daily!... as a full meal cooker, an "auxiliary cooker,and as a snack cooker. The instruction book is very useful on the parts that I use less frequently. Even my husband can use it! It even gives me a nice parting message on the screen to ENJOY MY MEAL! I had the identical oven previously, until this year's massive week long ice storm hit us. Several of my appliances were burned out by the huge power surges. Entirely Nature's fault. I replaced this one immediately, with the same microwave , from the same dealer. I LOVE it! Read more
