This unit was installed as a replacement for another GE Advantium unit.  We needed it to match the other Advantium appliances we had.  I ordered a black unit, but when it was installed, in my mind is was not even close to black, it looks gray.  Big disappointment and our kitchen has this thing in our kitchen now (the new unit), that everyone's eyes go to immediately to because it doesn't fit.  It would be nice for GE to stick with what they call black across their product lines or at least through a series line of production.  The unit works okay although I have to say initially the control panel was not responding correctly.  Even the installer said it wasn't working properly.  We kept messing with it and it finally started to work.  So hopefully that lasts.  I can't recommend this unit to someone who is thinking they are buying a unit that looks black.  It is gray!
