ConsumerReports' best in class - actually lousy

Date of Review:  Jul 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: Don't get it. Too expensive and it just doesn't live up to the hype.
Review: NOTE: I bought and tested the General Electric JES2251SJ in April 2005.

-------

I decided to take a shot of healthy tomato juice today. Why tomato juice in particular? Because of its perfect viscosity for my purpose: testing the...

only lasted for 17 months

Date of Review:  Jun 22, 2008
Review: I have the GE JES2251SJ02 in stainless steel. I have to agree with several of the other posters. My microwave only lasted for 17 months (Feb 7, 2007 to June 22, 2008). Now it doesn't work.

No inside light, no display, no response to the...

Looks and Works Well

Date of Review:  Nov 30, 2007
Review: We have had this model now for about 4 months. There are no faults that I can see except that it does take up a lot of counter space. It also has a LOT of interior room. It heats evenly and quickly overall...

Review: i bought this microwave on ebay after reading it was top rated by consumer reports. the unit arrived and didn't work properly (smelled like burning plastic and shut itself off after 20 seconds), but a call to GE had a service tech out to the house...

Disappointing right from the start

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2009
The Bottom Line:

Wish I'd believed the bad reviews on this model, it truely doesn't work well at all. I cannot recommend it, despite our previous GE Microwaves being great.

Review: The first thing I tried was heating water for a cup of tea, which seemed a nice and easy way to begin, using the Lunch/Soup setting. We were amazed at the utter silence of the unit. More about that later. After too short a period of time, the unit...

Great........if you don't mind doing without popcorn

Date of Review:  Jun 26, 2007
Review: This microwave excels at everything except making popcorn. For some reason I've never been able to turn out a decent bag of popcorn. No matter how long I let it cook, it burns the popcorn in the bag from the inside out. It's outstanding at...

Very Unreliable.. don't trust Consumer Reports

Date of Review:  Nov 19, 2007
Review: Ditto on all the reviews here.

I purchased this microwave nine months ago. It stopped working after one month requiring major repair. After repair, it worked another seven months and failed again. Another repair. Both repairs were covered...

Excellent Microwave

Date of Review:  Dec 28, 2007
Review: I'm not sure why so many people have complained about this model. It's actually very durable, large, and cooks anything you throw at it! Maybe some of the complainers didn't take the time to read the user manual?
For the size, wattage, and...

Disappointing Quality

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2007
Review: When I purchased this microwave in January 2007 I was looking for an affordable stainless steel microwave. When the microwave first arrived I noticed how "cheap" it felt. The door is flimsy and the whole unit just felt like it was poor quality. In...

Date of Review:  Nov 13, 2007
Review: We had a Panasonic Microwave that would last 11months and die. The problem appeared to be a poorly designed latch system.

We got the GE to avoid the problem. imagine our surprise when the unit arrived and it appeared to have the same...
