I had the older version of this microwave for nearly fourteen years. The new one is better because it is more compact in size and the wattage is much higher, hence heats faster. This is an excellent GE product and ABT had it at my door before I even missed the old one. I was very smooth purchase.

Most Liked Negative Review

Fair price for fair quality oven

Typical GE, fair price for mid range quality.

Door design/quality leave substantial room for improvement, it frequently fails to open unless the button is pressed quite smartly, the twist in the door prevents the door from fully closing unless closed from the top corner.

It does seem to be the only currently available compact oven that can hang from a cabinet.

Comments about GE JE740 Countertop White Microwave Oven:

I have had an older model in the past and knew this would meet all my needs. It is small and compact. I mounted it under the cabinet since I live in an apartment with a small kitchen. The mounting kit is extra and very, very easy to install. Has all the bells and whistles of larger, more expensive units. Great addition for a dorm room.

Comments about GE JE740 Countertop White Microwave Oven:

This was the only brand that would fit and would hang. I do not like the door, think handles are better. I do use it a lot. Last one had a piece of paint fall off, it was like a blister, that GE had no idea what happened (it was five years old), they did give me a rebate.
Maybe would recommend this to someone else.
