GE Microwave - Profile JVM1790 Review Summary

Reviewers love the GE Profile microwave and convection oven. The unit is compact and can be installed over a standard oven. Although the unit is small, the space is used well. Reviewers say you can have your cake and eat it too. Patriciastevens says, "There are so many things I do with it from cooking breakfast to cooking dinner and even making dessert." In other words, this small micro-stove will bake cakes as well as heat items like a standard microwave oven. Sawallish says, " It has so many features, defrost, cooking level, express cook buttons, reheat and they all work the way they are supposed to. " The cooking features can be used together to cook fast and still add the browning that most microwaves fall short on. If you're looking for a high quality microwave that can also be used as a second small oven as well, then this is a good pick according to our unbiased reviewers.

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...

I love my GE Profile microwave. There are so many things I do with it from cooking breakfast to cooking dinner and even making dessert. Oatmeal is healthy but I cant be bothered with cooking it on the stove. I pour some in a bowl, add blueberries and skim milk, then have an extremely healthy breakfast. I love all the different settings to defrost meat when I have forgotten to do so before dinnertime. There are so many different things I love about this microwave that I cannot imagine life without it.

MY GE MICROWAVE HAS GOT TO BE THE EASIEST TO OPERATE. THE KIDS CAN DO IT BECAUSE IT IS EASY TO READ AND UNDERSTAND. IT IS SAFE. AND VERY INEXPENSIVE. I HAVE HAD MINE FOR OVER 6 YEARS AND IT IS STILL LIKE NEW.  I COOK, BAKE, REHEAT, MAKE POPCORN WHICH THE SETTING IS PERFECT FOR. NOT HARDLY ANY SEEDS IN THE BAG BECAUSE IT POPS SO WELL.  IT'S A GOOD STARTER  AND DOESN'T TAKE UP A LOT OF SPACE.

I've had to replace this machine twice through the manufacturer's warranty and GE still gave me a very hard time about swapping out for new! The Profile spent more time not working than working. It was noisy and downright scary! The biggest problem wasn't so much the Profile but GE and their unwillingness to provide customer service. Please don't waste your time on this appliance. Your family will thank you!

The GE Profile microwave is one of the best I have ever owned.  It has so many features, defrost, cooking level, express cook buttons, reheat and they all work the way they are supposed to.  The fact that I see this microwave in so many homes is a testamony as to how good this unit is.

I have a kitchen full of 6-year-old appliances, all Jenn-Air, Maytag and Whirlpool.  Only two have functioned well, and the GE Profile Microwave is one of them!  It's great. Two tiny complaints, as with all stainless steel it's difficult to keep smudge free and seems to be a bit scratched.  Also, was difficult to find replacement light bulbs at first.  Not carried in stores, but got a special order at an appliance parts distributor.  First one cost $35!!  On subsequent visits, they charged me a more normal $4 to $6.

GE Microwave -Profile JVM1790  I have tried other GE prodects and was on happy but I did try again.  What a mistake that was.  They just do not hold up.  Many years ago there were better but in the last 30 years they have gone down hill.  And it is not just me I have had friends and family have the same problem also.
