    If I could start over, I would *not* buy this LG microwave. A few months after we bought it, the interior light completed stopped working (not that it was bright enough to see well anyway; for such a cavernous interior, the light needs to be much brighter, and the LED just doesn't cut it.) Then, a couple months after that, we were running it and it made a loud vibrating noise just before it completed quit heating. The LG repair seeking process was also painful. You cannot get a live person, but only a chatbot. Eventually, they did send a repair guy, who was nice and punctual, but he couldn't fix it until more parts were ordered. We're now waiting for those to come and him to come back and install. We'll see if that fixes it, but come on. It's a microwave! It just be indestructible for *at least* a few years. POOR shoddy product from LG. Repair guy said LG "never replaces" anything, so buyer beware: LG sells lemons.

      Hi, there. We appreciate you sharing your experience with your LG Microwave (MVEM1721F) model. We understand your concern about having issues like a non-working interior light and heating problems. The repair process seems challenging, and we appreciate your feedback.

      The interior light may require disassembly to access the LED cavity light. If it fails quickly, it could be a control board or wiring issue. Heating failures and vibrations often indicate magnetron or capacitor issues, which your technician is likely addressing with ordered parts.

    This is a great Microwave. Easy to use, powerful and large enough for bigger containers. The bell that tells you that your items are done is very nice to hear, not obnoxious like a lot of other microwaves.

    I really liked this unit, but my wife hated that the fan runs all the the time when it on. I loved the controls. We returned it. When you boil water in it, at least it vents well.

    I needed a basic model to replace my GE, was pleasantly surprised by its easy to use cook settings, cooking time is just right, doesn't over cook, also love the light chime sound when it's done cooking, as well as when timer is done. The interior is good, nicely lit although it's gray. It's been 6 months since the purchase, I'm happy overall, the slick exterior design looks great with my other stainless steel appliances. Please note get a pro to do the install, instruction not clear.

    I’m not a fan of over the range microwaves, but our house came with one that I never liked, and after 3short years, no longer worked. The LG model we purchased to replace is quite an improvement! It is excellent quality, with much better features, (I.e. the underside has vents on both left and right sides). Changed my mind about not liking over the range microwaves, this one is a winner!

    Great microwave. Great bargain. Matches all my stainless appliances and black countertops. Cleans up easily. I like that you can push a # and it cooks for that many minutes with on button push.
