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.

I was disappointed that this microwave does not have the feature of hitting 1 to 5 for quick heating. Also, no 30 sec. button. Melting and softening which are features touted in Consumer Reports must be programmed requiring a manual, rather than using a quick key. The microwave looks very good and, so far, performs well.

Comments about GE Profile Countertop Microwave Oven - Stainless Steel Finish:

I have enjoyed this microwave for 4+ years. However, the microwave oven died on me today, not even 5 years after purchase date. This is extremely disappointed given that it is a GE Profile appliance and I used to associated quality with GE. My husband was not happy that we paid so much for the microwave (at least twice the cost as other microwaves) only to have it die not even 5 years later. While it is working though, the features are nice. I am a fan of the inverter defrost. However, paying almost $300 for a microwave that doesn't last 5 years is terrible.

    Died after only 2 months of home use....I was surprised to see this as a Consumer Reports top choice, after I bought it I read the reviews at [...] and it seems ALOT of people have the same problems with it...It just doesn't last more than a few months! It is a really nice microwave, just hate to spend $250.00 every two months to keep it!

        My daughters family of 6 has been using one of these for about 2 years and it has performed flawlessly. I have only used mine for a few days and it works great as well. The only quibble I can think of is the size and location of the start button. It takes a little getting used to.
        My contractor installed a "Trim Kit" around it that makes it look like a built-in oven.

              Product works well for "office" needs. We love the fact it heats evenly.
              This would also be perfect for home since it's more than we need but it has the capacity to do so much more.
