The Alexa compatibility is also mixed, with some reporting it works with Alexa for about a month while others find the Alexa and phone app integration completely useless. Moreover, customers disagree on the value for money, with some saying it's not worth buying for 900 watts. Additionally, the noise level receives negative feedback, with customers describing it as incredibly loud.

Panel is dark, WiFi is sketchy
The microwave works well for a 900 watt. It cooks evenly. You need the lights on to see the panel, even in the daylight, even better with a flashlight. I wish it would light up. The picture advertised is deceiving. WiFi was slow to set up. I looked for it on the app this morning and it is gone. I’ll try to set it up one more time before sending back. If you have a very bright kitchen and don’t really care for the smart features, then this unit will work well for you.

    I needed a replacement and wanted something that worked with Alexa, this is the perfect size for me and far exceeded my expectations cooking or reheating food. Easy to use and control with or without your voice. It's just as powerful as my last one, but with so many updated features. This is one amazing offer and I have to recommend this to anyone especially if you have an Alexa enabled home.

    Setup is a two-step process.

    First, you get the oven on your Wi-Fi network (using the GE app).

    The "scan and cook" feature is part of the GE app (not Alexa). I tried scanning the bar code from a Stouffer's box and It worked pretty well. It worked, but we never use it.

    The real deal is getting Alexa to control the oven with voice, which is a little tougher to set up.

    You need Alexa to learn the appropriate "skill", then she needs to find the oven on your Wi-Fi network. Once she sees it, you're good to go.

    Obviously, you need an Echo in the kitchen, near the oven, to make it work.

    This setup is especially good for older people, or those with vision problems, as you don't need to see the display, or the buttons, on the microwave to use it. Just say "Alexa, microwave on high for three minutes" and away she goes. Another nice feature is that she repeats the cooking time when the oven starts, just in case she misunderstood you and has programmed the wrong cooking time.

    The recently released Amazon oven is probably easier to setup than this one, but it has a lot less power, so I think one is still the best. It's more than double the price though, so if you're on a budget, the Amazon model may be the way to go.

    Size: OLD 0.9 Cu. FtVerified Purchase
    So, to start things off, I did not buy this microwave for its smart home functionality. I needed a microwave of these specific dimensions to match our GE suite of appliances. There was one hiccup during unboxing in which one of the plastic feet popped off with relative ease just from being moved around on a living room rug. The feet are not very robust and I cannot place a lot of faith in their longevity. Fit and finish on the microwave is fine save for the fact that that door sits about 1/16" uneven with the rest of the unit with the door closed. Just enough to catch your eye if you're looking for it.

    I got an itch to try out the wifi functionality and was more than a little let down. I thought the scan to cook functionality would be a neat novelty but was only able to get it to actually read 1 of the multiple barcodes that I tried scanning. In the time that you stand there futzing around with a box of frozen food and your phone out, you could have just punched the time into the microwave. That said, the Alexa integration that this unit supposedly has seems to be a boon to the vision impaired community and I would recommend it based on that.

    To set up the wifi functionality, you need to download the Smart HQ app to your device and create an account with GE/Haier. After doing so and getting to the home screen of the app, you need to select add a device and select Haier on the brand list. After doing so, select Microwaves from the list. In the meantime, press the wifi connect button on the microwave panel. Follow the prompts and input the ID and password of the microwave, located on the lower right corner of the unit behind the door when prompted. It should find your device and connect it to your home network with little difficulty. You will have to know your network password to do this. I hope this helps someone out.

    I have to say, setting this up was very, very simple. Same thing on integrating with Google Assistant.

    The only thing I believe is missing, is a QR Code to a direct download of the Smart HQ app from the store. I had to guess and download the first GE app that appeared, but its not the only one, as there is an older app in the store. After the app was installed, it picked up for bluetooth pairing and WiFi setup.

    I hardly write reviews, but I do install a lot of smart devices, that sometimes are a PITA to setup and make it work.

    This microwave sounds a little tinny when the door open, more than what I’m used to. As I get used to the settings, I find it easy to use and does the job so far

    Works well with Google assistant in Canada. I have not tried Alexa because I always use my Alexa device to tell me if there are Amazon packages at the door. I have been quite happy with it so far. The voice control will be extremely useful for me as my vision continues to get worse.

    We purchased this microwave from Amazon and when we tried to register it GE Canada said it is a US product and they don't cover it. So we are left with out any warrantee.

    took forever (and many attempts) to get the microwave to connect to my WiFi. Then when I finally did, Alexa app couldn't find the necessary skill to talk to the app for the microwave. Lots of online searching to see if the name changed. Then called Alexa help centre (very helpful), who did much of what I had already done, then confirmed that the skill is not available in Canada. He suggested I call GE to see if there's a workaround. GE Canada was terrible. Nobody understood my problem, and just transferred me to another person. Eventually they trasnferred me to wifi support in the US, where I was told that the skill was not available, that there is no workaround and that I should contact Apple (yes, they said Apple). Being returned.
