      Hi, Nicholas. Thanks for clearing that up! It seems like your feedback is really about Best Buy’s 14-day return policy rather than the LG Microwave (MVEM1721F) itself.

      If you want to make sure your voice is heard, you can easily submit feedback directly through Best Buy’s customer service portal or reach out to their customer service at 888-237-8289. Just a heads up, return policies are set by the retailer, not LG. If you need more help with your unit, feel free to send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're here for you! ^Juvy LG

      Hi, Daniel. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG Microwave (MVEM1721F) model. We understand how important it is for your unit to heat efficiently and for the internal light to function properly.

      One helpful step you can try is to test the microwave’s heating performance by placing a cup of water inside and running it for 2 minutes. If the water does not heat adequately, this can indicate an issue with the magnetron or power supply. For more help, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-microwave-why-is-my-microwave-not-heating-properly--20153229630502. For the light, the bulb may need replacement, which is serviceable on this model. If you need further assistance, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com so we can continue supporting you directly. ^Juvy LG

    Vent fan comes on automatically everytime I use microwave. Old microwave never did this neither does anyone else I know. I spoke to two LG customer support reps on the phone and one LG chat session. None said this was normal. repair ticket was made. Tech came out and said needed new control board and will order. Got call 2 days later from tech. LG says this is normal for this unit. Why didn't any one know? Why isn't this mentioned in owners manual? POOR customer report. POOR advertising. I would have never bought if I knew. Loud fan every time microwave used... NO THANK YOU!!!

      Hi, Verona. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the LG Microwave (MVEM1721F) model. We appreciate your feedback and understand how important ease of use and comfort are when it comes to kitchen appliances. For the auto reheat and cook functions, we recommend checking out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPI7Fy93aII, which includes step-by-step instructions to help simplify the process. As for the fan noise, it's normal for the unit to produce sound during operation, but if it seems unusually loud, make sure the microwave is installed on a stable, level surface and that the vents are clear of any obstructions. For more information, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-microwave-troubleshooting-noises--20152329269153. If you'd like us to take a closer look or share more tips, feel free to email us at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're happy to help. ^Juvy LG

    Do not buy this brand (LG) Best Buy does not repair this brand. I have spent all morning trying to get someone to repair because it over heats and shuts down. You have to go to LG who tells you to schedule with Mr Appliance that could not help without a authorization letter from LG, after 3 hours I still have not resolved. Just bought this a few months ago

      Hi there, VickiD. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand that your LG Microwave (MVEM1721F) isn't performing as expected, and we truly appreciate your feedback. We would be more than happy to assist you with this issue.

      For the overheating and shutdown problem, we recommend checking the microwave’s ventilation and ensuring it is properly installed with enough space around it for airflow. A blocked vent or inadequate space can sometimes cause overheating.

    I wouldn't buy this microwave again. I wouldn't buy this from Best Buy. I had it installed by Best Buy and they left without it working. It ended up I should have looked further into my outlet and kept my old microwave. Instead this breaks about a day after the return period is over. Best Buy even with support won't help. LG won't help as they use Unique Service Repair. And they keep rescheduling and say their system is down.
