[C320-list] Fwd: Re: microwave

[Joe Abbagnaro]

I just installed a GE Microwave JES0736SMSS This has a Stainless Finish.
I paid   $79.00   for this unit.
Like others Have mentioned I had to cut   1/4 inch off the top of the cabinet.
The other microwave was the original the Key pad stopped working.
