No, I would not recommend this to a friendStopped functioning after only 2 months
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only had this microwave for two months and it completely stopped functioning. It does not turn on at all and there is nothing wrong with the power outlet. Now I find out that the returnable date was two days ago. What a waste of money.

Don’t Recommend At All.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this about a year and a half ago and don’t use it everyday and the handle broke off!!! It is above our stove and I’m wondering if the heat from stove caused this but our last one lasted at least 5 years!!!

Bought and returned it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When you turn on the exhaust fan, it had an unbearable whistling sound. We were told by the installer that they all did that. I said, nope! We were also told that one from another manufacturer would be quieter so we bought the LG. Our rating is already posted for that unit.

worthless product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worthless product! Had for just over 2 years and it quit working. A lot of money for only 2 years worth. Called Geek Squad and they are unwilling to help figure out what needs to be done to get it working.

Loudest Ever Microwave/Vent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very loud and high pitched fan. By loud I mean really really loud. Louder than any other vent fan I've heard. And it comes on whenever you microwave. I'd stay away from this one.
