Completely rubs me the wrong way
This trim kit is not cut right. The door DOES rub in two places at the door hinges/swing. I have removed and reinstalled three times and cannot get this to NOT rub. It does still function for now but you can clearly see the rub marks and it creates friction that effects the swing motion.

    Very poor design,difficult to align with door which resulted in one side rubbing To fix it you must remove the whole microwave what a pain!

    The interior of the frame is not built to accommodate the microwave's door hinge. The older trim model had a recessed portion of the trim kit to allow the hinge room and swing freely. This trim kit version has no recess and pinches the door so it sticks and doesn't open all of the way. You can open the door all of the way by pushing it, but generally bad design. Bought for microwave PES7227. Looks great but needs old recess design update.

    Missing screws, and the directions were incorrect, and I had to call the GE tech. For how expensive it is it should be perfect.

    Hello - Thanks for bringing to our attention. We recommend that you review the installation guide for this trim kit to ensure that it is installed properly: https://images.thdstatic.com/catalog/pdfImages/b3/b39337b0-a5a6-4c7c-ad3c-92d37c9e6cda.pdf. Let us know on social media via private message if you need assistance in the future. Warm regards. -Don@GEA GE_Appliances

    Easy installation although you might have to modify the cutout. In my case the cutout was 16 inch tall whereas the trim requires a 16 3/4 inch cutout. Be careful which model of microwave you order with this trim. Check the installation guide for the microwave oven to be sure it’s compatible with this trim kit. Originally I had ordered this oven: PES7227SLSS but it doesn’t work with this trim kit and I had to return it. The one that does that I eventually purchased is PEB7227DLBB.

    Was not what I expected. I was replacing a GE Profile microwave that an all stainless trim. This is a stainless coated PLASTIC base. Very hard to mount and get centered because of the plastic mold not rigid enough to not flex. Very disappointed for the price.

    Poor quality
    Just had this trim kit installed with the associated ge microwave. It is warped in 3 places. Have notified the retailer. Have a feeling it will be difficult to find one that is not warped. It is really a flimsy unattractive trim. Its not like you have a lot of choices. Have to buy what fits. Do better GE

    Hello there! Thank you for providing us with your feedback. We are extremely sorry to hear that your trim kit was warped in multiple places. We understand the frustration this causes. This is in no way the consumer experience that we strive for. The retailer should be providing you with a solution for this issue. If they are not able to, please reach back out to us and we will get this handled for you. We appreciate you choosing GE Appliances for your home, and we hope you enjoy your new microwave for many years to come! - Adrian@GEA

      Ugly plastic
      Plastic trim kit does the job but is FAR inferior in aesthetics to former GE trim kit which was metal and well ventilated. It is expensive considering it is made of plastic.

      This trim goes well with the new microwave (replacement) since the new microwave was not available in stainless steel to match the other appliances in our kitchen. The trim made it match everything nicely.

      It's a little difficult to install, but once it's installed it looks great. When installing the lower screws on the outer frame be sure to magnetize them and the screwdriver first otherwise they drop into a crevice that makes it hard to see them and get them out, plus you have to remove the top screws if you already put them in.
