LG NeoChef brings a new sensibility to countertop microwave design. The look is minimal and elegant, one you’ll be proud to showcase in your kitchen. The performance is impressive, with the power and precision of the LG Smart Inverter combined with the ease of Sensor Cooking. It senses optimal temperatures and automatically turns off the microwave, eliminating the guesswork. Generous capacity and the splatter-resistant EasyClean interior elevate cooking and cleaning convenience to a new level.
- Smart Inverter: Try defrosting in ordinary microwaves and you’ll get alternating blasts of full power followed by periods of no power until the timer ends. LG Smart Inverter replaces this all-or-nothing approach with precise, variable power providing more even cooking and better defrosting.¹
- EasyClean: Spills? Splatters? Don’t sweat it. LG’s EasyClean interior - assisted by Anti-Bacterial Coating - resists stains and buildup, so cleaning your microwave doesn’t have to be a chore. Simply wipe with a damp cloth—no chemicals, no scrubbing, no problem.²
- SmoothTouch Glass Controls: The intuitive SmoothTouch glass controls deliver sleek style and easy operation, with just a touch of your finger. Plus, the smooth surface easily wipes clean for a design that pays off in its practicality.
- Hexagonal Ring: Using your microwave shouldn’t have to be a balancing act. The hexagonal-shaped stabilizer ring on LG NeoChef microwaves provides 6 wheels for the turntable to rest upon instead of just 3.
- Sensor Cooking: Eliminate the guesswork in cooking. Humidity-sensing technology determines when food is cooked and automatically turns off the microwave to help prevent the over- or under-cooking of meals.
- LED Interior Light: Bright LED lighting makes it easy to check on the progress of your food while offering greater energy efficiency than traditional lighting.
- 10-Year Warranty on Magnetron: When you buy a microwave, you want something reliable that you can count on. The Inverter Magnetron - which provides the power source for the microwave - is confidently backed by a 10-year warranty so you can depend on your LG microwave when you need it.

A: There is a youtube video on how to turn off the annoying sound of an LG microwave. It is slightly a different model but we followed the steps by guessing which similar buttons to press and it worked!. Here is the youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ci0c-K3sJyc For our LG microwave (LG NeoChef MS2596OS) press and hold the 'Clear' button then press the 'Keep Warm' button for 5 seconds then the display will show the changing state 'On' or 'Off" of the beep sound. Here I uploaded the picture of the microwave panel and which buttons we pressed. I hope this help.
A: From the back bulge of the microwave to the front edge surface of the microwave door, the depth reported in the question is correct at 17 inches by my measurement. However, from the back bulge on the microwave to the forward edge of the front feet is 16 inches by my measurement. That would mean that a 16 inch shelf would provide support for the microwave, but the door of the microwave would project farther forward than the front edge of the shelf (like 1 inch-worth). Hope this helps.
Q: CAN YOU HAVE A LEFT OR RIGHT HAND OPENING DOOR on microwaves and fridges
A: Need a left to right open door microwave over the range
Q: Is the door easy opening? Is it quiet?
A: YES! Very easy and Very Quiet! It also cooks VERY quietly too! A+ in my book!
Q: Does the light go on when you open the door and while the food is cooking ?
A: Yes, it does. On both occasions. The light looks pretty cool, too.
Q: What’s the difference between this model and the 2.0 besides size and wattage?
A: The controls are completely different. There is no number pad, so to get to five minutes, you have to either slide your finger along a line, or touch and hold the "+" sign until you get to five. Many people find it cumbersome, though we were willing to put up with it for the sleek look of the oven. The bigger problem is reliability and LG's lousy customer service. Our magnetron went out at 7 months--2.5 months ago--and LG has yet to honor the warranty. They wanted us to go out and buy another one on our dollar, with the promise that they would reimburse us. They haven't. I wouldn't advise anyone to buy LG products. I just posted a 1-star review. If it gets published, you can read the whole story there.
A: The overall dimensions are stated as 21 7/16" W x 12 1/8" H x 17" D. I know you didn't ask this, but in case you're interested, the oven cavity dimensions are stated as 15 9/16" W x 10 5/16"H x 16" D.
Q: What is the power of this microwave? How many watts? (And why isn't the wattage given?)
A: The owner's manual states it has a "Rated Power Consumption" of 1250 W, and "Microwave Output" of Max. 1200 W. I don't know why the wattage isn't more clearly stated, I had to do some research before making my purchase.
