Very good Microwave for my purposes.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed a good microwave to replace the one I was using in my Class A Motorhome when the Samsung failed with a panel short. The LG was the right size and had the power rating I was looking for so I bought it and installed it. I just came back from a 5,000 mile trip and we used it daily, sometimes multiple times. The only problem I encountered was on rough roads we had to remove the glass turntable or it would bounce around and cause the door to open. It looks like it will hold up to the tough job of performing in an RV. I would buy this LG Microwave again. The clock is very easy to set on this one.

Love it! But...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a replacement micro for a bigger one we no longer wanted. For this purpose it's great. The power and features are all there. We wanted a stainless look. The only complaint i have with this and most every other out there is that they don't backlight the keypad. This sucks in a dark room. All microwaves should have this on the keypad. 25% of the time it's too dark in the room to see what you're doing.

Good microwave, but the door doesn't open enough.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, I am very satisfied with this microwave. I read reviews before purchasing that listed the flaw of a dim display, but I have no problem with it. The unit is easy to clean and plenty large enough for anything I have wanted to cook in it. The only flaw is that the door only opens to a 90° angle. It's not a problem for the smaller items, but when putting anything in that is nearly as wide as the microwave, it takes more dexterity than I have to avoid spilling whatever I'm trying to cook.

Very Good Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a replacement for the same unit which failed less than 1 month after purchase. Hopefully, this one will have a long life. We really like the size, features, and appearance. One big downside with the stainless finish is that it comes wrapped in a plastic film that must be removed before use. It is a major chore to take all off!!!.

Good Value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm happy with this counter top microwave purchased to replace older, larger unit. Looks nice and blends well with other stainless steel/black appliances. Cooks well. Relatively quiet. Easy to use key pad. Attracted to the "melt" and "soften" features, but in reality, for almost everything I use "Time Cook" and put in my tried and true number of seconds for each. I measured my favorite bowls and platters to be sure this microwave would accommodate.

Good Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good looking microwave. Works very well. Not completely convinced on the sensor setting. Seems to always over heat the food. One big down side for me is there is no numerical pad. All time is changed on 10" intervals. So to reheat something for 3' you have to do it every 10".

Good Balance of Price & Features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I won't name names, but the Previous microwave only lasted about 1 1/2 years in normal household use. Online research showed numerous reports of the same type of electronics failure for that brand. I can fix electromechanical failures, but electronics module replacements can cost more than than a whole new device. LG had better online reviews and a much wider variety of models than the previously purchased brand. LG reliability assessment based on brand name and online reviews only. The wide selection of LG microwave models available was confirmed when I arrived at Best Buy. I needed something bigger than for a college dorm and I did not need a microwave big enough to cook the Thanksgiving turkey, so I did not research features for other than the medium sized model I bought. For my needs, it has a good balance of cost and features. Advanced control functions provided are more than needed for everyday use, but the basic functions (time and power level) are simple and obvious. Might have to read the manual one of these days.

Very easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave has tons of room inside it's not that wide in comparison to most but it's deep. You can toss in a 12" pizza and it will spin. The height is also above average. Over all it's very simple to use. This microwave has a lot of power for the price that you pay.

Microwave does the job
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this microwave to install in a space above the oven. It replaces another microwave that didn't even last a year. This microwave is intuitive and easy to use. I like the rounded edges on both the outside and inside. It's easy to clean and looks stylish.

Good microwave, one small complaint
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this a few weeks ago, and so far so good. It is much quieter than my old one, seems to do a good job heating the food, and so far has worked well. It is also easy to clean, and I like the rounded out back in it. The size is perfect for us, not too big, not too small. So far I have not had any issues with not enough room. I love the EZ On button which allows for quick starting for small items. I haven't tried all the options on it yet (such as sensor cook), but I am glad I made this purchase. My only complaint is all the touch button keys (numbers, power, etc) have light print which can be a little difficult to see at times, so you have to look closely.

Great microwave, even better price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a replacement microwave that would properly fit into the cabinet space. This unit was perfect. The price was great and it's 100 watts stronger than its predecessor. It also has a curved backwall in the interior which makes clean up MUCH easier. Couldn't be happier with the unit and delivery was spot on, too.

Powerful microwave. Solidly built.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We've had this particular microwave for almost a year now. Its a 1300 watt model so its very powerful. Easy to clean inside and out. Only negative thing I have to say is the button you push to open the microwave door gets stuck in. It pops out when you touch it again or when you close the microwave door.

Very Nice Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We built a new house and needed an over the counter microwave. We were looking for something to match our other new stainless steel appliances. The salesman recommended this for the size space it was going to fit into. Rounded corners inside make it easy to clean. Many pre-programmed settings make it easy to use.

And it fits!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this microwave to fit in a custom cabinet. It was the only 1100 watt oven with a large interior capacity (1.3 cu ft) we could find that fit the bill. LG has a good reputation so we thought we'd try it. Very nice, modern and sleek design, interior is easy clean. How much energy is saved by turning off the clock?

Great choice for a microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave has a curved interior that makes any splatters easy to clean up without trying to scrub a tight corner. It's more than powerful enough to heat and cook anything that will fit in its roomy interior. Easy to use control pad with useful preprogrammed options. Great buy!

Great Microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Been nothing but happy with this microwave. Performs well heating anything from leftovers to microwaveable food in no time flat. The most spacious mid size microwave I've ever owned and looks pretty sleek inside and out. Easy to clean too. Gives you a reminder when your timer is done every 20 seconds over.

Looks nice, good size, functions well
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this microwave for my older parents. Mom likes the stainless steel look. It's a good larger (but not obnoxiously huge) size. Mom has a little harder time reading the words on the buttons, but she will eventually memorize the buttons, but for now, has to get her reading glasses out! The only thing I don't like is that when you close the door, no matter how gentle you are with it, it still makes a rather obnoxious 'slam' sound. Maybe it's not a problem for some people, but it's not our favorite.
