LG - NeoChef 2.0 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave with Sensor Cooking and EasyClean - Stainless Steel

I thoroughly am enjoying this microwave. Aside from its outstanding design and appearance on the outside, it is very spacious and powerful on the inside. Now that I’ve gotten a taste for the smart cooking sensor, I’ll never buy another microwave without it. I do recommend not using a lid to cover your food when utilizing the sensory cooking. The sensor works by measuring the steam coming off your plate of food as it starts to heat up. It then adjust the temperature and time amount accordingly to ensure you have the perfect balance of heat the moment you grab your plate from the microwave, ensuring you don’t burn yourself. With a lid covering the foods I’ve noticed that the accuracy gets thrown off by the lid trapping a lot of the steam. Other than that, great product.

Got this a little while ago and I have to say its performance is very good. Heat's very evenly and quickly but it's a very big microwave oven (at least compared to my old one). Takes up quite a bit of counter space and didn't realize just how much until I brought it home but the interior is huge. An 18 x 14 in tray almost fits inside lengthwise, and I have a feeling a large pizza box will fit as well. The touch pad is not as quick as my old one so you do have to wait just a tad to tap in the next number but since it's got 30 second interval one touch starts, it's not a big deal. Won't say the sensor cook and sensor reheat is a gimmick because it does work and it does exactly what it says it does. The problem is, you really have to know the exact weight of the item you want to heat up. Seriously, how many of us really know the exact weight of a leftover meal? I used it several times just to test it out but in day to day life, I don't use it. The only real complaint I have (and it's a minor one) is that the door is very loud when you close it. When it's heating something, it's very quiet and there's a really fun melody letting you know when it's done. After you take the food out and close the door, you really can't close it quietly. Believe me, I've tried but it's just not possible (work on that issue on the next model, LG). Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend this, though you may want the smaller one if your countertop space is limited. Hope this helped!

Our JennAir microwave went out and I wanted something nice without being expensive. And this did the trick. This one is much, much bigger. A little overkill on size, but will definitely come in handy during the holiday's. Looks great in the kitchen. And has a cute little tune when your food is finished cooking. Super easy to use. I love the fact i can type in the time without having to push a "time cook" button before hand. Also has a quick 30 second cook time button too. Wouldve loved to have had the dark stainless steel colorway, but didn't think it was worth the price difference. Best Buy had the better pricing compared to the "home improvement" store and it was available the same day. I did opt for the Best Buy protection plan for four years since it wasn't very much. And with the luck of the (new) Jenn Air appliances we have, I didn't want to take a chance. I'm sure we will have better luck with the LG.

This microwave is a little pricey but it’s worth every penny. It’s super spacious inside to fit whatever size plate you have in your house. It’s powerful enough to heat your food fast and evenly with the smart inverter it has in it. One of my favorite things about this microwave is that the sound it makes when finished warming is not obnoxiously loud like other microwaves are. Instead, it’s a kind of a quiet little jingle that’s loud enough to hear. It does cost more to get the dark steel finish by like a couple more dollars but it’s worth it because it looks amazing. I definitely fully recommend getting this microwave if you’re looking for the best out there for countertop microwaves.

We got a great deal as it was on sale when we purchased. Super quiet and very easy operation . And looks sleek in our kitchen. BE AWARE the width is actually about. 1/8” to 1/4” wider than described by the OEM. And if you count the door swinging open, it adds about anohter 1/8”. We have a built-in space for a  microwave , and I had to cut out 1/8”from each side in order for it to fit . Which was no big deal, and easy for me to do.  overall, very happy with the purchase. 

Plenty of room in this microwave! Easy to clean. Love the smooth front no handle look. Push to open button works great.

Love this microwave and the unique chimes. Not the usual sounds and beeps when done. Really pleasant. I did blow a fuse I believe by accidentally blocking the intake vents about 7 months in—- so be wary! Best Buy doesn’t warranty their items for one year so good luck. Buy their silly warranty! Or use a credit card that does! I love the touch buttons— it’s like a touchscreen not push like most microwaves. It’s hard to really get used to! I use the easy “30 second” add button and easy start for that. The popcorn button ACTUALLY works too. The inside is HUGE so bonus for these hefty microwave users like myself. It is quick and efficient Moreau that other units before and after the fuse blow while I wait to fix it. The interim microwave sucks in comparison for a slight price drop (sharp model). The whole thing is huge, though— twice a normal microwave size but beautiful! If you live in an apartment this will take up an ENTIRE good sized counter so measure! It is HUGE I cannot understate that. I attached a photo. Overall wonderful if not for constant dings to get food (preference there). But lovely sounds and great performance. Can’t figure out the self clean function though. No button for it either?

I gave read negative reviews on this microwave but I honestly don’t see why. I needed something that would be able to take square plates so that is where my search began. I had purchased a Samsung during the remodel of my kitchen and that thing was a piece of junk. This microwave is solid, heats evenly and looks great on the counter. It is large in size but doesn’t look overpowering on the counter. It is not heavy to move but has a large interior for bigger plates and dishes. It will serve my needs well.
