GE GCST07N1WSS Microwave Oven, 700-watt 6 Auto Cooking Settings, Child-Lock Technology, Kitchen Essentials for The Countertop, Dorm Room or Apartment, 0.7 Cu. Ft, Stainless Steel

This is a basic 700 watt oven, a good choice for a dorm or a small kitchen. It cooks evenly and has clear controls for instant 1-6 minute cook times, add 30 seconds, popcorn, and it's turntable is big enough for a dinner plate.You can find cheaper ovens but the GE name suggests that you will have a US company backing it if it breaks.My only complaint is its small window.

This is a small but mighty microwave. It cooks food thoroughly according to frozen food package directions. Easy to clean.

Glass plate broken and customer service helped out great

Estoy enamorada de mi horno! Definitivamente cumple con mis expectativas. Es un producto que en mi caso que tengo niños me ha funcionado perfectamente, ya que este tiene un seguro para niños que no pueden abrirlo sin ayuda de un adulto. En términos de calentamiento definitivamente es muy eficiente ! Calienta la comida súper rápido y es muy potente. Las medidas son adecuadas y perfectas.

Microwave review.I know I am past the return option- I waited to open it and was out of town for a while, so that’s fair. But I believe it is important to put out my experience for anyone else’s information.Early on I wrote that I was concerned the even just heating up my coffee, the far back right corner of the top of the microwave would feel warm- no where else. Be aware, I have allowed much more that the required space all around the appliance. The response was that this was normal. Previous microwave must have been better insulated because that never happened, and it was a much higher power.A few time now I have encountered an issue putting in timed cook- I’ll start hitting numbers and the screen will just light up “food”. The first time this happened, it took a couple of times to get the input to clear. Had to totally back out (hitting pause/clear more than once).Most recently I cooked some ears of corn wrapped loosely in parchment (have done this before), had to break up the batch so didn’t do them all at once. Took out the first ones and put the next in as soon as oven was emptied. They cooked fine, but this time the entire top of the oven was warm. That is concerning- the first time it was three minutes for each of 5, so 15 minutes at full power. The second time it was 10 minutes- certainly nothing excessive.I called about a possible cookbook at one point, and was told you don’t supply one anymore, just the basic user’s manual, and that totally understandable, but there is no real chart for various foods and quantities, just the marked buttons for minimal help.All and all a disappointing result, and not comfortable trying to use the unit for the full range of possibilities it should have.Planning on buying someone else’s soon, but not even comfortable donating this for anything but absolute minimal use.Not a satisfied customer.G.C.Hirsch

Good proudest!

My husband and I had previously purchased this microwave about 3 yrs ago. It worked beautifully however the bottom inside finish started to peel away from the metal base and because we were concerned that it might be harmful to our health, we decided to turn it in for proper recycling at a center taking t.v.s. and other electronic devices. After looking at and trying a couple of other brands, this one was the winner again. Also, it is pfoa/lead free so it's a double winner for us.

I bought this microwave to replace an older one that stopped working. Unfortunately the model I had was no longer available, so I tried the GE. The GE has the same exterior dimensions as my older microwave, but the inside dimensions are quite a bit smaller. Check this on any microwave you order; I was shocked at how small this one was inside. In addition, it has this a very irritating child-lock. You are supposed to be able to disable the lock by pushing a sequence of three keys. I have never been able to get that to work so I have to push an unlock button and then open the door. Generally, everything on this microwave seems to require a sequence of presses; just bad design. It is too much trouble to return, but my advice is to look around a bit more before you buy this microwave.
