General Electric JVM1750SMSS

Pros: Reasonably Priced, Feature Laden

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: There’s no surprises here, the GE JVM1750SMSS is a reasonably priced microwave that delivers on the features that today’s consumers demand.

Review: Over the range microwaves are becoming the norm these days, once only a high end feature that few of us could justify until our first generation behemoth microwaves bit the dust. When they first came out, many folks had great aspirations to do all their ...

Pros: great looking microwave that works great

Cons: slight delay after using a quick setting button

The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a stainless steel over the range microwave, look no further. GE still brings good things to life.

Review: Our over-the-counter microwave that came with the house finally broke down one day. It stopped heating up food, even though the exhaust fan still worked. It was time to get a new microwave. The previous microwave came with the house, lasting a good ...

Pros: Nice appearance, roomy interior, reasonably quiet, good feature set for price. Knowledgeable technicians.

Cons: Unreliable beverage/cooking sensor. Poor quality control. Recurring problem with turntable stepper motor.

The Bottom Line: GE over-the-counter microwaves are not as reliable as some other makes. Unless you are replacing a GE and need to reuse the mounting hardware, go with another brand.

Review: I purchased a GE EVM1750SMSS (same as the JVM1750SMSS) on December 17, 2007. Out of the box, it had a defective door with a large blemish on the inside clear plastic. It should have never left the factory like that. GE replaced the door without any ...

Pros: almond color avail, looks good, blower fan is fairly quiet

Cons: unreliable sensor / faulty design, incorrect installation instructions, disappointing defrost

The Bottom Line: Recommend choosing a different oven. The sensor cooking feature of this oven has limited cooking options, and above all is unreliable and potentially dangerous--definitely not worth paying for.

Review: The microwave that came with our house (a Sharp sensor model) finally quit. I chose this oven of same wattage as the old one because: 1) A certain consumer magazine gave GE good marks for reliability; 2) It has a cooking sensor; 3) It's ...
