GE Microwave - Profile JVM1790 Review

We got this microwave as a replacement for a brand new model by Jen-Air that never worked and had parts on "permanent backorder".

In re-modeling our very small kitchen we needed a multi-taker, combination Micro hood with convection oven.    This unit fit the bill nicely, and has impressed us ever since.

The fan has 3 speeds and can really move the air to the outside vent.  No more setting off the smoke detectors while sautéing onions!!!  It is not nearly as loud as other fans, but it is not whisper quite either.

The surface light is nice and bright in "High", you can actually see with it on!!!  The "Low" setting is only good for a nightlight.

But what I really love about this model is the Space!!!  It comes with 2 racks for the convection setting that span the width of the oven rather than being a holder that fits over the rotating turntable.  You can fit 2 13x9 inch pans into the oven and the convection works great.  It doubled as a second oven at Thanksgiving!

The dial interface took a bit of getting use to, as it adds time in 15 second intervals. So you for turning it for a while for a 5 minuet time setting.  All the sensor cooking features work as they are labeled.

We are very happy with this unit.
