We review recent results of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) observations toward galaxy clusters. Using cm-wave receivers mounted on the OVRO and BIMA mm-wave arrays we have obtained high signal to noise images of the effect for more than 20 clusters. We present current estimates of the Hubble constant and cosmological parameters and discuss the potential of conducting statistical studies with large SZE cluster samples.
