Dont care for this microwave
12/26/2018
It was a home warranty replacement. Looks nice but doesnt cook or warm stuff in the min like my old 20 yr old microwave I gave away. It claims that it has a heat sensor cooker but all it does is run and run. So Im really the sensor. Im disappointed but trying to get accustomed.

I love this microwave
12/18/2018
I love the features on this microwave. I love that most of the time I only have to press one button to start it either 30 seconds or Express Cook 1 to 6 minutes. I love that it responds to my touch instantly without my having to press buttons multiple times before my touch registers. I love the size. I love how the door easily opens and closes. I love that the timer can operate simultaneously with and independently of the cooking time. I dont use sensor cooking often but the controls for it are very intuitive unlike lots of other microwaves. I had bought a different microwave and although it worked all these features I just named were either missing or did not work smoothly. It was so annoying and frustrating to use. I got rid of it even though it was only a couple months old and bought this one which I am very happy with. I use this microwave multiple times every meal every day. Thats way too much use to put up with a microwave that is difficult to use. I love this one. The one feature I do not like is that if I put something in the microwave then wait a few minutes before starting it it beeps at me and indicates Food. I have to open and reclose the door. Thats annoying. The machine thinks it is smarter than I am but it is not Apparently it uses how long since the door was opened to determine if theres food in it. If it is going to try to tell me theres no food in there it should have a better way of deciding that -- like a weight sensor. But thats a small issue and overall Im very happy with this microwave -- SO much happier than with the previous machine.

Works well but the open button may be failing
12/14/2018
This is our 3rd GE microwave. The first operated well for 7 years. The replacement took a month to arrive. When it arrived it was damaged and subsequently returned. That replacement took another 10 days. Do not install yourself The instructions are unintelligable. Now the open button is failing If we werent forced to buy this because it fits the cupboard we would have passed.

This is our second GE Profile microwave. The 1st lasted 7 years. We wanted to replace it with the updated stainless version but really did not like the new stainless color. It looked more like pewter. Bought the all black...now we can barely see the front panel options.

I bought this microwave to replace a 2 year old GE built in microwave that came furnished with our newly built home. This microwave is better built than the one the builder put in that recently gave out. It would have cost us more to repair than to replace. All the features are easy to use and the display/buttons on the front are well built. It is an easy touch display with no hard pressing required as the previous GE model. This microwave is quiet and not loud while cooking which we do not miss from the previous GE model. The only issue we have with this microwave is the light it is a bit dull but not a big issue. My family has always used GE products. All of our appliances are GE in our home. Keep up the great work GE

Poorly designed control buttons
9/25/2018
I bought this particular model because it fit in the space where the old one was. I did so reluctantly because I read the other reviews of the problems with the button to open and reading the control panel. I have to echo those though my latch isnt quite as bad as some of the others. Why would GE use gray lettering on a black panel? The matching oven has white lettering which is very easy to read but the gray is almost impossible to read without a very bright light focused on it.

A fine microwave
8/25/2018
This microwave is a big improvement over the one I owned previously. its easy to use and important to me allows me to silence the chime. My previous microwave couldnt be silenced it was constantly screaming at me and when I wrote the manufacturer to ask how I could silence it they wrote back saying it couldnt be silenced. I hated that thing the new GE unit is much more pleasant to use.

Was pleased to find GE Profile series still going so I could match my GE Profile oven. Oh well...no match design is angular rather than easy curves and clock lite is bold white rather than easy to read green. Its a tad dark inside. Love the melt/soften reheat express cook and power levels.

Nice Microwave but...
5/25/2018
Most all features about the microwave oven is very nice but.... I was disappointed to find the latch to open the door is a little stiff. I have arthritis in my hands and pushing the mechanism to open the door actually hurts my fingers. Had I been able to see the oven in person and found this issue ahead of time....I may not have not bought it for that reason alone. Pushing into a little plastic boxed area with a hard clicking latch in my case makes it a bit more difficult someone slightly handicapped to use. I know there are more quality and sturdier openers with an easier smooth mechanism because my previous oven had one. Still I do like all the other
features about the oven....

very nice overall
5/22/2018
I was sort of forced to buy this as it was the only thing that fit the built in hole I had. Its good overall but leaves fingerprints after EVERY use you have to wipe the external keypad. The car manufacturers have figured out how to have touch screens in all cars that dont leave fingerprints why cant GE? My only other peeve is that you cannot add more time after cooking as stopped without opening the door and closing it again - annoying the old GE model I replaced did not do this. If the thing is still cooking you can add time but not after it stops...open door then close again.

Lacks ease of use
4/20/2018
I find this a very frustrating appliance to use because of how the buttons are arranged and that there is no backlighting so not easily read. Also buttons very sensitive and more than once I have lightly touched a button by mistake and had to cancel and start over. Also find the reheat feature frustrating because you cannot open the door to check on the food and then continue the reheat. I had to get this model because of the wall space and the model it was replacing. Would have liked another choice.

4/14/2018
I bought this microwave to replace the built-in we had so it had to be a certain size and match the built-in oven. It fits nicely but the installation process is so difficult you need an appliance person to install which GE does not provide. We used the old trim and wood strips instead. The oven itself makes more noise than the old one. A lot of steam comes out after most uses. The Reheat cycle takes too long to heat.

The first GE microwave was installed in 2007 as builder standard and died around 2011. I had to buy the same one to match the built-in closet and save builtin kit. I also bought 5 years extra warranty. the 2nd one died in 2018 at a good age. That model was discontinued. The same reason for the 3rd ge microwave. Lets how long this one will last.

Not a big fan
3/7/2018
On my third one of these built in microwaves in 9 years. These should last much longer than 3-4 years. The only reason I continue to purchase is to avoid purchasing another trim kit that costs about $150 more than it should. This review must also be moderator approved so keep that in mind and read between the lines here of my experience and opinion with their microwave products.
All in all Id avoid a GE microwave and find an alternative thats built to last over this disposable model.

Replacement microwave
2/18/2018
My GE Profile microwave oven model JE2160BF03 that I bought January 2007 stopped heating. Instead of repairing it I decided to replace it with a GE Profile microwave oven PEB7227DL1BB that was very comparable size watts touch panel etc. to the one that failed. I could have gone with a different brand based on reviews that I read online and based upon what Consumers Report reported in their latest evaluations of microwave ovens but decided to stay with GE since the older model worked very well for 11 years and I was very familiar with the the layout of the buttons on the touch panel. I didnt want to learn a different touch panel layout.
The new microwave oven performs well but Im disappointed in the interior color of the cavity inside compartment and the brightness and spacing of the touch panel numbers/letters. The cavity is a dark gray and is not as easy to see the items that I put in it through the window of the door--even when the oven light is on. The older model had a white interior and would have been a better color for the new one.
The brightness and spacing of the numbers/letters on the touch panel is my other complaint. Even though the old touch panel and the new panel are identical in size the newer model numbers/letters are smaller and not as readable and distinguishable as the older model. The color of the numbers/letters are fainter on the newer model than the older one. Also there are some slight differences in location of words/features on the newer model but that isnt as bad as the size and faintness of the letters/numbers.
So I do recommend this brand and model overall but a thumbs down on color of cavity and size and brightness of numbers/letters on the touch panel.
