JVM1665DNWW Spacemaker Grilling Over%2Dthe%2DRange Microwave Oven %2D White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It has all the functions a modern Microwave should have. It needs to be mounted very carefully, otherwise the vibrations of the metal housing create the most frightening noise your kitchen ever has experienced. My problem was the automatic fan which should prevent the oven from overheating: it run from the first second and never shut down. Ordered through Amazon, delivered by AJ Madison and manufactured by GE I first had to find out who is actually responsible for warranty and service. Once the GE service appointment was arranged, the technician came two hours too late, did not have insurance with him, did not find out what was wrong, had no spare parts with him and left without doin anything. I still have my microwave with the fan continuously running, consuming electrical power for nothing....

Over the Range%2DProfile Spacemaker Series%2DMicrowave %2D Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This microwave looks good, but as a microwave that cannot generate microwave, it is useless.
I had used several microwave stoves before, some of them around $50, some around $100, but none of them stopped working within 3 yrs--except this expensive one. We called GE customer service, they told me the magnetron tube was broken, and they also told me this happens because, statistically, the failure rate of this magnetron tube is 3-4 percent. I don't need to be a magnetron-tube engineer to understand this rate. As a regular customer, I just know this failure rate is too high to be accepted.
If GE continues to make this kind of products, it will become another GM soon, and they can only depend on the government bailout to survive.

Whirlpool : WMH2175XVB 1.7 cu. ft. Over the Range Microwave - Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After ONE YEAR it's broken. We MAYBE use it one to two minutes per day. I've seen other reviews on Whirlpool as well and it seems the quality of their products is horrid. If you do buy PLEASE get whatever service plan is available to you as it is the one time you may actually be happy you did. Just an absolute piece of junk. Very crappy plastic, cheap sounding door, loud machine that doesn't last. Will NEVER buy Whirlpool again. There are reports all over the internet about how these break down after a year or two - do your homework and look at the customer reviews. We saw reports this was a good microwave - well it was a new model at the time. You could offer me one for free and I wouldn't take it - like the free couches you see on people's lawns - genuine JUNK. It's embarrassing that I can go to my mother's house and they're still using their microwave from 15 years ago w/o problem and here I am replacing mine after a year.

KitchenAid Architect Series II : KHHC2090SSS 2.0 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwav Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had a maytag over the range microwave that died after 4 years. I replaced it with the stainless steel kithenaid convection over the range microwave and I am definitely pleased. After reading review after review of other brands I decided to go with this model and I am glad I did. This microwave offers everything and then some. I probably won't use half of the features on here, but in the event I need them I have them! The convection is amazing, it literally cuts my cook time in half with out overcooking my food. Kitchenaid is reputable for producing quality products and I already own thier restaurant quality mixer. This microwave is highly recommended and the price I paid for it on Amazon blew the competitor's prices out of the water.

Maytag MMV1164WB 1.6 cu. ft. 1000 Watt Over-the-Range Microwave - Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Maytag sells this microwave as a replacement for model # MMV1153AA, so I bought it when my old microwave blew up, hoping I could just drop it in. However, the wall mounting bracket is completely different, so is the location of the screw holes on top that holds the microwave oven to the bottom of the kitchen cabinet. It is also 1 1/8 inch taller than the older model, so make sure you will have room for it! Also the power cable has to go through a hole in a different location than model MMV1153AA. None of the holes in your cabinet for model MMV1153AA will work with this model, you will need to drill new holes. Apart from that inconvencience it is a great microwave oven.

Samsung SMH8165B 1.6 cu. ft. 1000 Watt Over-the-Range Microwave - Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Purchased this last July, and all was fine until December when the microwave would not turn on. The clock started to count down when I pushed "start." Repaired under warranty in December, and the problem was a "loose wire" because when the service tech opened the front panel, he reseated the wire connections. Worked fine then until June when the same problem happened again. Same service tech was convinced that a new circuit board was needed, but when he installed it, it did not work. He wiggled some wires and it worked again for three weeks. Now that we are ten days beyond the 1-year warranty date, I cannot get Samsung to admit that this model is defective.
Service company tells me that we are not under warranty and are responsible for cost of the parts and labor. Piece of junk. Will not purchase a Samsung product again. However, from reading many online reviews, I would recommend that you consider two ways to deal with this problem.
Option #1: Purchase an inexpensive model with the plan being that the microwave is a disposable appliance that is to be tossed as soon as it inevitably breaks. Being wall-mounted, this is not a simple option.
Option #2: Purchase from a store that offers a 4-year warranty. That way, when the microwave breaks after 6 months, 11 months, and 13 months, you are fully covered. The problem with either approach is the inconvenience of losing a microwave oven.
Lucky for us, we still have a Whirlpool countertop model from 2002 that has worked faithfully. That has allowed us to wait 3-4 days for the service tech to arrive to fix the problem.

Whirlpool : WMH3205XVB 2.0 cu. ft. Over the Range Microwave - Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We were asked to pick out appliances for our new home. I picked this one for three basic reasons. It was the same brand as the stove and fridge I picked out, was black, and went over the stove. I had no other criteria. Microwaves in the past, for us, have never been used for much more than reheating leftovers, microwave pancakes for our son in the morning and maybe a bag of popcorn every now and then.
Had I consciously decided to research more functionality in a microwave, this would have been it!! I cannot believe how awesome this microwave is.
Functions I've used:
* The "Dinner Plate" function is a thing to be awed. Load up a plate of leftovers, pop it in and hit ONE button (Dinner Plate). The microwave's internal sensor automatically adjusts the cook time to ensure the food is heated evenly throughout. WORD OF CAUTION: Do NOT stop the cycle to check the progress, then cancel and hit "Dinner plate" button again. For some reason it will get way too hot!
* The "Soften / Melt" function has been used numerous times already. You're able to select to soften different products (butter/ice cream/cream cheese). I've used it for both butter and ice cream. The butter selection truly softens your butter without having half soft and half melted. The ice cream selection is another thing that awed me. Our freezer was set too high, so our ice cream was like a rock. Put it in the microwave, selected the "Soften/Melt" button, hit "1" for soften, then "2" for ice cream, then key in the number of ounces. The consistency of the ice cream was perfect!!
* We just used the "Steam / Simmer" function last night to steam fresh asparagus for dinner. Again, we were thrilled with the outcome. We put 2 large bunches of fresh asparagus in a glass baking dish, drizzled with olive oil and seasoned with lemon juice, salt and pepper. Hit the "Steam" selection and steamed for about 10 minutes. Again, AMAZING!!
We've only been in our house just under two months and have already gotten so much enjoyment out of this microwave. I give it the highest recommendation and cannot wait to further investigate the other functions this oven has to offer.

Maytag : Over-The-Range Microwave Oven Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this microwave just over a month ago from one of the larger home improvement stores. My condo is smallish, so I decided to go with this less expensive model. It worked fine the first few times I used it, but after running it for more than 4 minutes at a time, it would shut off completely. The display would not even light up. The power would eventually return after about a half hour or so.
As it is still covered under the manufacturer's warranty, I was able to arrange for free service through Maytag's website. The technician just left and told me that the problem was "poor design." Apparently, there isn't enough cooling for some of the internal parts when the microwave is being run for more than a few minutes. To remedy the situation, he suggested that whenever I had the oven on for an "extended" amount of time, I should turn the vent fan on high so that the internal parts can remain cool. The technician said that this was a problem with many brands of over the range microwaves in this price range including LG, Kenmore, etc. He did say that GE was likely the best brand to buy.
As I spent a significant amount of money and effort between the initial purchase and having it installed, I will keep the oven and just remember to run it with the vent fan on. It works fine otherwise.
Update: 1 Year Later
After the initial service call, the original problem of the microwave overheating and shutting off after about 4 minutes of use continued regardless of whether or not the fan was turned on.
Just before the 1 year warranty expired, I decided to try and have it serviced one more time. The service person determined that the problem was improper installation. I helped him pull down the microwave and then he was able to move the fan housing cover into the proper position for external venting, the instructions of which were actually printed on a sticker right next to the housing cover. Go figure!
I'm upgrading my rating on this because the microwave oven has been working perfectly since then. I can recommend it without reservation, but just make sure it's installed correctly.

Whirlpool Gold : GH7208XRS 2.0 cu. ft. Velos Speedcook Over the Range Microwave Oven - Stainless St Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After considerable research online, we chose this model of convection/microwave vent hood for our kitchen remodel.
WOW.
Let me reiterate.
WOW!
Being a 'car guy' automove similies seem to fit here, so I'll just say that this oven is like a balanced, blueprinted race motor in your kitchen. Sleek, powerful, responsive. We researched several vendors, and believe me, reviews and feedback are VERY important;and when ordered, the unit was delivered within 4 days. Packaging was secure and unit arrived without incident. Documentation was excellent, installation was straightforward and took less time than expected. Performance has been flawless, just as advertised. The controls are well thought out and logically placed. We really appreciate the multiple levels of lighting and fan speeds, and the accessories packaged with the unit all work well. Large interior volume makes for LOTS of options, touch screen menus are simple to navigate. The styling is both contemporary
and reminiscent of streamline moderne esthetics. The unit is quite heavy and will require at least two strong people to install, and the price is rather hefty, also. We feel, however,that we have gotten great value with this unit.

KitchenAid KHMS2040WSS 2.0 cu. ft. Over the Range Microwave - Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What really upsets me is that our new Kitchenaid Microwave KHMS2040WSS-0 only lasted 2 months before the magnetron blew up. The previous reviewer's lasted 6 months. Three times as long!
Boy am I sorry I didn't read his review before I bought my own piece of crap. Beautiful on the outside but blew up in my face.
Our previous microwave, a run-of-the mill GE, was still working after 19 years. But nooooo, I had to have a pretty one.
Kitchenaid's Warranty is a huge scam. This lovely piece of do-do has been sitting on my family room floor for the last month. The repair tech showed up, and could not take it off the wall to test it, look inside it, etc. My husband had to help him pull it off the wall and there it sits. The tech, from Domenco, had no parts with him and lots of excuses why it was necessary to perform service calls without repair parts. No amount of phone calls to Kitchenaid or the repair company has motivated them to take any action. Kitchenaid warranty department says they have no proof that a tech ever looked at it. The fact that they SCHEDULED THE APPOINTMENT IN THE FIRST PLACE WITH THEIR PREFERRED SERVICE VENDOR "is not proof." "Ma'am," they say, "We have no proof that a technician ever verified that your microwave is not working." Not only does their microwave not work, neither does the Kitchenaid warranty process. Perhaps that's on purpose. MY word and MY payment on MY credit card means zip, zero. I must be a moron. Why in the world would anyone lie about this? You have to wait a week to get the repair appointment, then the guy shows up 6 hours late, can't fix it and then falls off the face of the earth. You can't make up stories like this.
So now I have a new $550 piece-of-crap coffe table...and an 18 year old functioning microwave in a landfill somewhere.

Magic Chef 1.6 Cu Ft Over the Range Microwave White MCO160UW Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 10 year old over the range Hotpoint microwave suddenly died. I needed a replacement. I came across this Magic Chef unit and couldn't believe the price: A replacement for $150? I ordered the unit and didn't expect that much. What I got is a great working microwave with features I didn't have on my old unit. It has more internal space and with he recessed turntable I can cook and defrost much large food items than before. The fan is extremely effective although it's quite noise on full, but so it was on the old unit as well. I have noticed that some of the details like hinges and such seems a little bit more flimsy than on the old unit. We'll see as the years go by and this unit is used several times a day to feed my four kids if it holds up. But the first couple of months has been a great experience, and I can replace this one twice without it costing more than some of the units I saw at the appliance store.

GE JVM1740DMBB 1.7CF Over-the-Range Microwave 1000W Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)About 6 months ago, we upgraded from an ancient GE spacemaker - might have been 10 years old. So anything was going to be better. I wanted one that had a revolving turntable to spin the food and I wanted a stronger microwave. This one delivers. But Please - take my advice and don't try all the silly "auto sensor" features. Use manual choices and you can't go wrong. If you are upgrading from a lower watt microwave, be sure to adjust and lower your "usual" cook times. I burned popcorn and Weight Watcher Smart Ones meals at first so I speak from experience. My husband has yet to understand this concept and still burns food!
I have the black color instead of the bisque which I think looks nicer and is relatively easy to keep clean. However, I wish I had stuck with bisque color instead of getting black finish for our stove and dishwasher though because keeping those clean is MUCH MORE DIFFICULT.
I like that there is two optional racks for those holiday family meals when we're heating up multiple large items.

PVM2070SMSS Profile Spacemaker Over%2Dthe%2DRange Microwave Oven %2D Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We got this as part of the Profile set to match our range/oven. It has some great features, like a push display, and a boost feature to REALLY get some air OUT! Love that. But when I went to push the button for the vent, the whole button panel behind the stainless steel moved back- I broke something. The repair guy just left after telling me I had broken the processor assembly which costs $500+ to replace, and then there's labor. So we're looking at $750 to get a new one? I don't think so. I'll just get a different stainless steel microwave with better reviews!

1.8 Cu. Ft. OTR Microwave - 1000 Watts, Side Controls-professional group Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A decent microwave, looks nice, spacious, which also makes it larger.
Things that work well:
Cooks very evenly
offers alot of space (possibly unnecessary space)
Quick start buttons
Soft start and quiet when it operates, which is very nice.
Lights are bright.
Installation was easy and sensibleThings that dont:
Clock is kind of dim. Hard to see at even reasonable distances during the day. Also the numbers are not centered in the LED space, looks off.
You can not program the micro to cook when the timer is operating. This is really uncommon, most microwaves offer this, so keep it mind. Basically the Micro becomes a giant kitchen timer and nothing more when you use the timer feature. Terrible design if you ask me.
Alot of "convenience" buttons that quite honestly are not very convenient. Makes you have to refer to the manual alot to remember what exactly they do and removes control from the user often overcooking the food.
Sticks out from the cabinet face a little more than most Micro ovens, and the handle is comfortable but obtrusive.
I personally only use a MIcro for basic cooking and reheating, this one is a little more than I would have ever needed as far as features go. I bought it mainly to match off with the range, apparently Frigidaire uses a coating on the certain SS appliance (professional and Gallery) it is has a different look than their regular (non-coated) SS models. Overall I am satisfied with it, but if matching is not your important, go for something else at this price point. You will probably get convection and the logic for operating the machine will probably make more sense.
