What customers say
This GE overthe-range microwave is praised as a reliable workhorse offering excellent value for basic heating needs. Consumers appreciate its straightforward operation, standard sizing for easy replacement, and dependable 1000-watt performance. The core functionality and brand value are strong selling points. However, a significant drawback is the noise level; users consistently report that both the cooking cycle and the exhaust fan are noticeably loud compared to other models. Furthermore, the ventilation system is often deemed underpowered, struggling to clear steam and odors effectively, particularly in recirculation mode. It is a functional appliance if you can overlook the high operational noise and modest venting capabilities.
Know before you buy
The GE JVM3160RFSS measures 29.88 inches wide, 16.13 inches high, and 15.25 inches deep. Be sure to measure your existing cabinet opening and the distance from your cooktop to ensure proper clearance for over-the-range installation.
Yes, this unit features an integrated ventilation system designed to clear smoke, steam, and odors from your cooking area. It is intended for over-the-range installation, which allows it to function as both a microwave and a hood.
Yes, the 13.5-inch turntable is removable. This makes it easy to clean up spills or remove the tray if you need to fit a larger, rectangular dish that doesn't rotate.
With 1000 watts of power, this microwave provides sufficient energy for quick reheating and efficient cooking. It is well-suited for standard daily tasks like defrosting frozen items or heating up leftovers.
The stainless steel exterior is durable, but it can show fingerprints. We recommend using a dedicated stainless steel cleaner or a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to maintain its appearance and prevent streaks.
Absolutely. The unit includes dedicated auto cook menu options and a defrost function, which help take the guesswork out of preparing specific foods like popcorn, beverages, or frozen meats.
