Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Good looking unit with a bad clock

Micro714 6/23/2026

The unit works well and would look great except the clock has been on the fritz since we bought it. I don't mind but my wife complains about it all the time. Unit still functional but it does catch your eye. Had service out for our oven and he told me it was too expensive to replace

Working Good

Mail Carrier 5/9/2026

We bought this same microwave three years ago and the digital display started going out and so we had the warranty to replace it and just did. Hopefully this one will last longer. It does heat efficiently and is easy to use. The door is pretty noisy, but that is minor as long as it works right.

Expensive replacement parts

Min36 4/29/2026

The microwave is decent but the screen blinks in and out and the handle snapped off. I wanted to replace the handle, but according to my research I have to replace the entire door which is about half the price of the unit. Im better off replacing the unit.

GE microwave

lisainjax 4/16/2026

this is my 3rd GE microwave in the 20 yrs I've been in my house. given that, I would say they are typically pretty reliable. this updated version looks nice, the door is way easier to open and close but the controls/buttons are harder to push. overall I'm pleased and hope to get 6-7 yrs out of this new one.

Excellent Performance

johnnyb92 12/11/2025

I™€™m a new homeowner, and this GE 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven (Model JNM3163RJSS) came installed by Lennar. I absolutely love it! The stainless steel design looks clean and modern, and it fits perfectly with the rest of the kitchen. The microwave heats quickly and evenly, and the 1.6 cu. ft. capacity is great for everything from quick meals to larger dishes. The recirculating venting works really well™€"ideal for a new home where proper airflow matters. The controls are simple to use, the lighting is bright, and the fan has multiple settings that make cooking more enjoyable. Overall, I™€™m extremely happy Lennar chose this GE model. It™€™s reliable, stylish, and performs far better than other over-the-range microwaves I™€™ve used in the past. Highly recommend!

Not Working

jpeach 11/19/2025

microwave worked one time since we owned it in our new home. Vent fan never worked when we tried turning on. A few days later tried using microwave and the entire thing turned off. Now we are told we have to wait for a fan that wont be here for a couple weeks. I asked repair man why cant we just get it replaced and he said they cant do that. This is NOT convenient. 3 weeks without a microwave? Ridiculous- right at the holidays!

Love everything about this product, from the easy installation to the large capacity! The ventilation is great and it's also energy/power efficient. The control panel is easy to use, however, I am finding the need to push fairly hard on the buttons in order to get them to work, that could just be user error so I am not holding it against GE!
