Author's Review
Purchased the unit at Sam's Club on 3/27/04 for $158, on the basis of the stainless interior and grill & brown features.
Cook times were acceptable, but less that the microwave we replaced.
Brown and grill features are marginally helpful. Perhaps I did not use them in the right manner.
The primary reason I am entering this review is due to the poor reliability of this model.
Purchased in March, 2004, the power supply was replaced under warranty in February, 2005. Now, January, 2006, the Magnetron has gone belly-up. GE will stand the cost of the part, but it will cost no less than $50 for the service call. I think it not unreasonable to expect longer, uninterrupted service from this product than 22 months!
We have put our former microwave back into service, that actually heats more quickly, but does not have a stainless interior, which does not show discoloration over time as white interiors do.
