We bought this microwave to complement our new range. The inside is large and has a turntable to evenly heat items. There is not a usable timer on the microwave which we had with our old one which we miss. Also, the light emitted from the underside of the microwave onto the stove is incredibly dim. Again, our older microwave had two high-intensity bulbs and made using the stovetop easier by seeing the foods while they were cooking without using the overhead kitchen light.

So far we have really enjoyed this microwave. It is a great size to fit numerous dishes, it was easy to install, and user friendly. The only thing I don't love about it is that I wish it's case was the same depth as my cabinets so that all you see from the side is the door.

Seems to cook well. It looks really sharp and matches the rest of our LG appliances. The color of the electronic display is a yellow-ish color rather than the glowing blue of the rest of our appliances. The only thing missing on this microwave is a timer.

We purchased a new LG range and wanted a matching microwave to complete the look. There were only two models on display in the store. The other model was more expensive, but I did not like that one because the door design would not allow me to see what was cooking. This microwave looks very nice and does function well. I just did not pay enough attention to how limited the options are. It does not have a timer, you can not turn off the carousel when you use a larger dish, and the light only has one setting. I wrongly assumed that multiple settings and a timer function were standard on microwaves. Other than the surprisingly limited options it does what it's designed to do and it does look nice with our range.

It is very nice but it is much noisier than I expected. I was disappointed when I got it installed and the door wouldn't open. Make sure you measure not only the width of your opening, but also the depth. Cabinets/walls can not be too deep!

Microoven looks works good. We had agita dealing with the delivery dates. We felt best buy didn't even handle our problem satisfactory. If you have a complaint, they ask you to fill out a survey. That is the last you hear from them!

This microwave is nice and very easy to use. Only issue is no express time feature (press # and instant min. Or more start) but all other options are great. As a replacement very close to our previous microwave.

Decent microwave. It's very loud but for $200 I'd say it's a barren. Looks as good as the expensive units and heats food the same from what I can tell. It was supper easy to mount over the range.

Love the look of this microwave. So sleek and modern. Inside the wire shelf allows for cooking multiple plates at same time. Great design and it was a great bargain for stainless steel. The black and stainless is a fantastic combination as you can either go with black or stainless with all your other appliances.

Beautiful product. This is my second LG Microwave. This one is for my vacation home. I renovated a small kitchen and did not want a counter unit. We ordered a shorter cabinet to fit over the range so the microwave sits a bit higher. Enough room for a large pasta pot underneath it and for stirring the pot easiy. I definitely would recommend this one. Classy, sleek. Works great!

Had to purchase a new a microwave in February because the previous one's motherboard was fried due to a power surge. Bought this one because of its dimensions, was on sale, and didn't have vent transition. Our kitchen wasn't set up for one. Had a friend of mine install it for me. He had a little trouble installing it, mainly lining it up inside the cubby hole where he could secure the microwave with the screws that were included.
We use the microwave basically for warming up things. It takes a little longer than the previous one to do that since it has less wattage. We took out the rack that came with it. You can only warm up a coffee mug with the rack installed. Overall, it is a good value.

This is a good product for the price! It is not a high end microwave but it works perfectly for the price. It does have a loud funny noise to it but it doesn't affect the overall performance.

Bought this microwave to match the oven I purchased at best buy. It looks nice and is much larger than my old one. The only negative I would say is that it is weaker than my old one.

Microwave works well, it is pretty loud though. Also no kitchen timer which we were sad to discover.
Works well and looks nice for the price though.

When our old microwave went out, we needed a replacement fast. This microwave does not even compare to our old one, but without spending $500, we were not getting that, so...
For under $200, this microwave is good. The only thing that keeps it from getting a perfect score is the fact that the automatic popcorn button will burn your popcorn. I do not know if this is common but our old microwave had a sensor that stopped the popping when it was done, before it burnt. This one does not so unless you stand there at the microwave waiting for it, you are likely to burn it.

We wanted an above the stove microwave for quite some time, but thought the installation would be difficult and it would be extremely expensive.
Fortunately we were wrong. This LG microwave installed in an hour, was reasonably priced and works great. We absolutely love it!
