    After purchasing 3 other microwaves that didn't fit the space, I settled on this one. It was a little more expensive but so far is working great and first the space. It has a lot of nice features including child proof mechanism that can be disabled if needed. I highly recommend.

    We loved this microwave. It was easy to use, I love that you can just pinch in the time and hit start rather than having to select time or power etc. it plays a not too loud pleasant tune when done and had no complaints u til it stopped working a month in!!! I’ve had microtonal lasted 10-15 years so this is a total bummer!!! Best Buy only gives you 15days to return so now I’m outside the window :( very disappointed in LG

    Best powerful, compact microwave. I had the older model for over 7 years and wouldn’t go to any other make. Fits perfect in my space and still has a lot of room inside, plus lots of power.

    I am not satisfied as LG claim this is one of best in market, makes loud noise, menu to select auto confusing, auto sensor cook not good, and worse of it terrible Best Buy customer service. I was out of 14 days return and exchange policy and BestBuy customer service even did not let me exchange it for bigger size or same size. I will not buy anything from BestBuy.

      Hi, IqbalR. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Microwave (MSER0990S) model. We understand how important it is for your microwave to operate quietly and for the auto‑cook features to feel simple and accurate. One helpful step you can try is to reset the unit by unplugging it for about 60 seconds, which can help the sensor recalibrate and improve Auto Sensor Cook performance. Regarding the noise, you may visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-microwave-troubleshooting-noises--20152329269153. If you’d like us to take a closer look at the noise you’re hearing or walk through the auto‑menu settings together, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're here to help. ^Juvy LG

    Not intuitive or easy to use

    I just bought this and I hate it. I have used microwave ovens for years, decades to be honest. The LG is confusing and diffuclt to use. There's a sticker next to the door button with instructions on how to open. You have to use your right middle finger. And ONLY your right hand, to press a small button on the side that releases the door button on the front. Here's a clue: If you need instructions to show people how to just open the door, you have made your product difficult to use. That sticker will wear off in short order and then every new person to use it will have to study the design until they notice a small black button on the side. This is dumb. Have something in your right hand and want to open with your left? No. Not physically possible. I tried auto reheat for a cup of water. It's a lot of steps to just set 2 minutes. The menu suggests that you can adjust the number of cups. But you can't as you try to find the +/- buttons or enter 1, 2, 3 or some other key to change the display. I have a broken microwave that takes several minutes to just heat a cup of water and I'm going to use it instead and return this one.

    The perfect replacement for the old microwave that we use in our recreation room. Took a little while to get use to the difference in settings, but we're very pleased with the purchase.

    The microwave oven is powerful to be so small, but it is somewhat difficult to use because the operational buttons on the front are hard to see. I saw other reviewers suggest that backlighting them would help, and I agree completely.
