Excellent upgrade and happy for it
Microwave was just a bit smaller than our old Samsung microwave. But it isn't an issue with the foods we put in there. The install was rather easier than I thought. Only issue was the top mounting holes are different from the old microwave so be prepared to make new holes if you're replacing an old Samsung. PROS: -The build is excellent and feels quite sturdy. -Door is not wobbly or weak when I have it open. -Food cooks well all around and i'm still trying out more features. -Internet connectivity. Using the LG app, I can connect my microwave to it and time a cook, set what to cook, set clock etc... It also reminds me for cleaning or any other issues. -If you're a microwave popcorn person, this is the 1st microwave I ever owned that practically popped about 100% of all the kernels without burning the popcorn (I use Orville Redenbacher). CONS: -Like I said, if you're replacing a Samsung, be prepared to make new holes. Also the power cord is on a different location. -Just a bit smaller internally than a Samsung of this series. But not by much and we didn't even notice when we started using it. -The lights underneath are a bit dim and I wish they used LED lighting. Although the interior is LED. Overall we're very happy with our purchase and the cooking and or warming up of foods is what matters and this LG does it very well!

LG 1.8cf OTR Microwave
Best Quality with Modern Elegant Design. No Nonsense Microwave which I find perfect for a modern minimalistic kitchen. EasyClean feature is a great plus.

Slick looking microwave
Looks nice and slick with the glass front and no plastic buttons. Seems like more power than our “old” GE. No difference in noise of operation or exhaust fan (probably one supplier to for those across all brands). I installed myself and found no issues with the template, take your time to measure and it should go up easy. I’m using this in an IKEA kitchen renovation and I used the filler bracket for over the range microwaves from IKEA. Be sure to cut or bend off the tabs you don’t need on this microwave or it’ll get stuck. Obviously you can use the supplied bracket for a standard install and won’t have anything else to do.

Great design and Functionality
I love the sleek design plus it’s very quiet during use. It connects to Wi-Fi and sends and sends alert to my cell letting me know when my food is ready . Overall, it is a great product. Just for mention, I Installed it myself and that too was not very challenging. I would hope that the installation papers where more cardboard like. I sometimes use the door glass as a mirror when I’m in the kitchen:)

Great microwave
I absolutely adore this microwave. The only downside is that the turntable keeps getting out of place, so I’ve had to keep it turned off. If it weren’t for that, I would have given it a perfect 5-star rating. It looks fantastic in the kitchen.
