GE Profile 1.7 Cubic Foot Microwave JVM1790WK
Rating: 5 out of 5
I needed a high quality, over the range microwave so I selected this GE Profile one. So far this has been a great microwave and I have no complaints.
I love its sleek design. It features modern lines and is very attractive. One of the main reasons that I selected this particular model was the design. I needed a black microwave to match my other appliances and this was one of the most modern looking ones that I was able to find.
One of the best features about this microwave is that it offers combination cooking methods. When I need a microwave it will quickly heat any items that I have. However when I need to quickly bake something, I can use the speed bake option. I have made cakes and cookies in this microwave and both have turned out great. That isn't something that you can get from a standard microwave. Plus it is great for baking during the summers because it doesn't heat up the house as much as a standard oven does.
I always have trouble knowing how long to cook things in the microwave and really appreciate the food sensors that this unit has. This microwave uses automatic sensors to determine cooking time and power based on food weight and the amount of moisture in the food. This takes the guesswork out of using a microwave.
It is easy to clean and wipes down very easily. It was also pretty install and I was able to do it myself in under an hour. It also offers ventilation when I am using my oven and has 3 separate ventilation settings.
This microwave is easy to use, easy to install and offers many features that standard microwaves don't offer. While it is much more expensive than a simple counter top unit, it is well worth the investment.
