Cute and looks durable.
The size is perfect for our small kitchen that we recently updated. Looks nice and works good. The hanging kit under the cabinet is not included on the purchase.

Compact microwave
It's the perfect microwave for a small apt. I have it hung into my wall over my kitchen counter. It has many cooking options and works great!

    Nice looking
    It is the right size for our space. It does take a little longer to heat things up but no problem. I knew that when I bought it, it was not as powerful as the last microwave I had.

      Love this Microwave that you can actually HANG!!!
      I love this microwave. The smaller size is great and the fact that you can actually mount it under a cabinet is fantastic. i researched so many microwaves that were advertised as able to hand under a cabinet but it was not true. This microwave is one of the FEW that can. It has holes already in the top of it so you just buy a standard hanging bracket to hang it. Works great too. Lots of features.

        Just perfect
        Fits in my small shelf area, a full size dinner plate fits inside, has enough power, love that I can turn the beeping sound off!

          Space-saving microwave oven
          Height is just a little shorter than my last 700w GE microwave, better keypad features

            Perfect for reheating & making popcorn
            It's adorable & will serve my needs nicely (reheating leftovers, a cup of coffee, a bowl of soup) while taking up little space. Thanks GE for keeping spacesaver products in production.

              Great Microwave
              I love it! Very easy to use and it looks great on the counter.

                Really great features!!!
                We really loved our previous Microwave. We had it about 3 years and that was the 2nd under cabinet model we had. We hope you don’t stop making them.

                  New Under the Cupboard Microwave
                  This new "little" microwave is just what we needed. Satisfactory for small needs.

                    This microwave was purchased to replace a Spacemaker 2 which, to my great disappointment, is no longer made. NO comparison. This is smaller; turntable keeps falling off indentations when something is removed, very weak, tinny sound when door closed. DEFINITELY not recommended!

                    Do NOT recommend!
                    I was not thrilled with this microwave from the beginning because it does not heat food well and the door closure is so loud. The deal breaker is that at 2.5 years of minimal use it is rusting on the inside despite being kept very clean. Also, its ability to heat food has only gotten worse during that time. GE is not what it used to be.

                      Small and efficient
                      Works great and gets the job done. Wanted a smaller countertop microwave that looked good and heated as well as a larger model. I have a GE wall oven that has to be at least 30 years old so needless to say I trust GE appliances. I plan to replace my dishwasher and fridge with GE appliances when I can afford to do that. I might keep the old wall oven. It still works great and looks good.

                        GE 700 Watt under-the-shelf Microwave
                        Love our under the shelf microwave. Same model as our previous microwave. Definitely a space saver.

                            Too Small Replacement Microwave
                            The oven is, and will be fine, but I would have preferred that a 1,300 Watt unit like my old one had been available. Certainly would have been willing to pay for the extra size.

                              Good Job
                              It took me a while to get use to all the settings and codes, but once I did understand these features my food came out very nice. My other GE microwave was very old and didn't have such features to help secure the best reheating situation for the different kinds of food.

                                Perfect for my needs.
                                I have only had this item for a short time, so I really can't comment on its performance. However, it's not easy to find a small under the cabinet microwave so I was very pleased to find this one. It is attractive, the controls are easy to use, and it appears to be well made.

                                  It excellent design and I wish it was 1000 watts instructions good

                                    Doesn’t last more than 2yrs
                                    Works great but after2 yrs the past 3 same microwave failed. I have to keep buying same one as you’re only mnfacturer making small under counters & that’s the only space available in my small kitchen. Either door failed to lock or motor burned out or it just stopped working!! Plus, price has escalated.

                                        I love it! Does the job! It’s a nice, little compact microwave.

                                          Great size for under cupboard but not much power. My last microwave had so much more power.

                                            Perfect size and works great!
                                            I don't have much counter space so this compact microwave is perfect! It's works well for warming up and defrosting meals and drinks and hardly takes up any space. I kept my larger microwave/convection oven because not everything fits into this small one.

                                              The ONLY compact microwave that you can mount inside an RV with an undercabinet mounting kit. THE ONLY ONE.

                                                Nice and small
                                                Just what we needed, something small that would fit under our spice cabinet. Great for heating up products, although it does have a few less watts then a standard size microwave.
