Customers are saying

Customers consistently note the ease of use, performance, and appropriate size of the 1.8 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave. Many appreciate its attractive appearance and the range of features it offers. However, some users find the microwave noisy and have difficulty with the button and control panel responsiveness. The light's brightness is also a point of contention for some customers.

    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.

    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.

    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

    Like the fan/vent as it works efficiently. Sometimes the touchpad has to be pressed hard to set cook time.

    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

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

      Hello there, thank you for sharing your experience with us regarding the LMV1831ST model. We understand your issues you encountered, including uneven cooking and a malfunctioning display. We're sorry to hear about these challenges.

      For troubleshooting, please ensure that the microwave is placed on a stable surface and that the power source is secure. Sometimes resetting the unit can also resolve display issues temporarily. However, it sounds like Best Buy has already provided a solution by exchanging the unit, which we're glad to hear.

      If you have any further concerns or if there's anything else we can assist you with, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport. Our team is here to help explore any remaining issues or questions you may have. Thank you for your patience and understanding. —Mau LG

    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!

    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.
