- A: AnswerShort answer is yes. We have this installed in this way -- see attached picture. Make sure that the width of the cavity is no less than 22.5 inches (ours is 22.5 inches). When you open the door, it needs clearance to the left of the microwave. I was initially concerned about heat buildup to the point where I installed a little exhaust fan at the back of the cavity (exhausts out the side of the cabinet). The fan turns on when the temperature at the back is >100 F. It's never turned on, so in hindsight I wouldn't have done this as it it is not necessary.

- A: AnswerHi Tess- The microwave features Cooking Complete Reminder. The Cooking Complete Reminder is a beep that occurs once every minute after the normal cooking cycle has ended. It is designed to remind you when the cooking time has completed. Begins 1 minute after the 'Cooking Complete Signal' This is different from the 'Cooking Complete Signal' which is 4 beeps heard only once and directly at the end of the cooking cycle. To terminate 'cooking complete reminder', touch Clear/Off or open the door. This cannot be modified. Keep in touch! SUE@GEA

- A: AnswerDon't buy an LG for that pseudo 10-year warranty. It's purely a marketing gimmick. Our supposed 10-year magnetron went out at 6.5 months, while the full warranty was still in effect. We've been without our microwave for weeks. They drag their feet, promise and then fail to contact you, etc. until most people give up. And if you persist in the protracted process, in the end you must go out and buy another microwave yourself, and hope they reimburse you. Oh, and good luck trying to understand the people on the other end of the phone. As for the 10-year joke, there are all kinds of charges built in to that "warranty" to make it as expensive to repair as it is to buy a new microwave. LG customer service, despite all of their attentive and sympathetic-looking comments on negative reviews, STINKS.

Q: QuestionDoes the light go on when opening the door and when food is cooking?(5 answers)
A: AnswerYes, the light goes on when opening the door and when food is cooking. (It's not a super bright light, but it's definitely there!)Answered by HappyCustomer
Q: QuestionDoes the keypad light up?(1 answer)
A: AnswerThe control panel is NOT adequately back-lit. I pointed this out in my review. Although the unit works as expected, I don't recommend it due to the back-light problem. I have to turn up the kitchen lights to see the labeling on buttons that i don't regularly use.Answered by CarlG
- A: AnswerHi Lucy- This unit has a straight plug that will protrude from the outlet. Also, microwaves need adequate air clearance on each side, the rear and the top to function properly. This allows good circulation for the intake and discharge air vents. We recommend 3" of clearance on both sides and the top and 1" clearance in the rear. Also, the front edge of the microwave (measured at door) should sit at least 3" or more back on the counter or shelf to avoid accidental tipping.

Really nice microwave
I personally think GE microwaves are the simplest to operate and the controls just make sense. Has sensor cooking options including dinner plate, reheat, beverage, popcorn, etc which is nice especially for reheating. Has express cooking to start easily by 30 seconds or 1 minute through 6 minutes. The other thing that is really nice with this microwave is after it is done heating, if you don't take stuff out of the microwave it will beep every minute until you take it out. This is hugely helpful in case you are busy and forget you have something in the microwave, I love this GE feature. Nice glass turn table with a lip so if something boils out of the container it helps to keep it from going over the side of the turn table plate. Plenty of capacity, it'll actually fit more than a whole 12 inch frozen pizza in this thing. Overall I highly recommend this microwave.

Solid microwave oven; greta value!
We had a more expensive GE Cafe microwave in the exact same size, but with convection, that died. Never used the convection feature, and I was loathe to spend so much on a replacement. Instead we got this one. Significantly less expensive, and has the exact same microwave features. Actually runs cooler than the older one, too. And is slightly more powerful. Very pleased.

I didn’t find nothing better
You know when something is not for you? Well I had ordered a different microwave from Amazon and it came sent and scratched. They sent out a replacement and it got lost so I went where I knew I should have gone to (bestbuy) where I normally buy my kitchen appliances and got this one. I’m so happy I did. It’s beautiful. The design fits my aesthetic perfectly and it works great. It’s so easy to use although I only use it to reheat my daily tea and sometimes my meals. The time to heat up my food is shortened because of how well it heats up and I like that. I would definitely recommend.
