LG over the range microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this microwave. Have owened it not about a montha and we love. The vent on high is loud but it does the job
I would recommend this to a friendRated 5 out of 5 stars
Works great and looks great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great microwave, and a great value for the price point. LG is a good product. The inside is also a very pretty dark gray, so that splatters won't show so much. It's nice it has an optional rack, as well.

Too basic for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overpriced. Too basic for the price. For example, you need all lights on in the kitchen in order to see the different functions. Would not buy it again or recommend anyone to buy it.

Great microwave
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the microwave but will not order open box again. It was delivered to my home but had no instructions, no manual, no template to hang the microwave and no hardware. I had to call LG and they shipped everything to me at it took 2 weeks. Never again

Great value.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like the fan/vent as it works efficiently. Sometimes the touchpad has to be pressed hard to set cook time.

Looks Good, fits good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looked at and bought this unit to replace a different microwave. Although the interior size is just as large, the exterior box is smaller than many units. This allows it to fit better over the stove. This was a problem solved for me

First LG microwave quit working in 2 weeks
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced our Frigidaire gallery series microwave (12 years old) with this LG. It quit working within in 2 weeks. We had the Best Buy protection plan, Best Buy replaced it free of charge in 3 days. The quality is ok, but doesn't have all the options like a higher end microwave does. Won't purchase another LG microwave when this one quits.

Not a great purchase for a range hood
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Maybe it's my fault but because it is over the stove, I thought it would work like a range hood, not the case, it's completely worthless for that, however works great as a microwave and looks nice, but I don't suggest you get it for over the stove.

Overall
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good for an inexpensive microwave, I purchased it to replace a defective Samsung. The fan is extremely loud and it only has two speeds, loud and louder.

Great sensor
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced a GE Spacemaker over the range microwave oven with the LG because the GE oven always overcooked food when using sensor cook. The new LG sensor works just right. It is also quiet and was easy to install.

Do not recommend
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This model no longer made and having had it I can understand why. Thankfully Best Buy exchanged. Performance was poor, uneven cooking at best, display stopped working. Cost of repairs more than replacement. Thank you Best Buy for addressing issues.

Very Loud
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a LG microwave that broke after 3 years. This was supposed to be the replacement model. Way too loud and does not heat nearly as well as the former one. Pretty disappointed and would replace it if it wasn't already installed. I'm sure this one will break in a few years too so I'll replace it then. UGH!

Good microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The installation was quite rough -- despite the big price for installation, I wish I had just paid it. Otherwise the microwave is great and does everything I needed.
