Elevate the look of your kitchen with a classic microwave featuring modern style and technology. The convenient handle bar design, WideView window and SmoothTouch glass controls offer a refined look, easy access and intuitive operation. With scan-to-cook technology, send cooking instructions for ready-made meals to your microwave with just a scan of the barcode, or use sensor cook and auto cook options to eliminate the guesswork. For extra convenience, sync the microwave with your LG smart range to automatically turn on the light and vent when the cooktop is in use. Plus, clear the air with ExtendaVent 2.0, which expands to provide powerful ventilation over more of your cooktop's surface area.
Q: How loud is the exhaust fan? Our current Maytag model sounds like a jet plane.
A: You know the fan is on, but it is not obnoxious
A: 17 3/4" is the MAXIMUM height, which is in the middle of the microwave, not the front. The front is only 17" high, and that seems more like 16.25" as the vent tilts back. On the mounting backplate, it's only a smidge over 16" high. Basically, it's not 17 3/4" high on the back or the front, only the midway back. The mounting and visual dimensions are less. Those saying they measured the front to be 17 3/4" are incorrect or didn't actually measure. See picture.
A: 1-6 are express buttons
A: No, it does not. Best Buy says it does but "microwave" isn't listed as one of the appliances in the LG Skill and it doesn't show as a device in alexa. I contacted LG and confirmed there are no Alexa commands for this microwave
Q: What is the weight of the microwave? Do I need special support to hold it over the rang?
A: 61.5 lbs as indicated in the specs for the microwave. You should not need any additional support than the bracket that they provided you with in the box. The instructions and templates that is provided was more than adequate for the install in my case.
A: This replaced a LG LMH2012 OTR version. I was able to use the existing wall bracket as it appeared to be universal. It fit within my cabinet dimensions. I had to drill new holes for the top securing screws. I didnt drill a new cord hole and was able to use the existing one. I may have issues with removing a top screw to replace the carbon filter.
Q: Can you exhaust this outside?
A: Yes I bent mine to outside
A: The vent on the bottom when you press in on it it comes out about 6 inches to extend the amount of area that the fan will help remove the heat and also gives you a bigger lip area. But unless you have a well lit, kitchen control panel is not back, lit and it makes it extremely difficult to see the numbers so much so that you have to have a flashlight handy to shine on it
