    Wish I could give this 5 stars, but.. the door is the entire front of this microwave. It is nearly impossible for me to open it and stand clear of the door. Cannot tell you how annoying this is! Would be fine for taller people with long arms. Otherwise, has large capacity, functions well and has more features than I need.

    Mine is a lemon, and return policy is lacking

    We ordered this microwave for a condominium unit and it was kept safely in the box for 2 months before the renovation was complete and it could be installed. It worked twice then failed to heat at all. Power, vent fan, lights, rotating platter all working, but absolutely no heating. Because of the time elapsed between purchase and installation, the return date has expired. Geek Squad came out and replaced the magnetron but that didn't work so a 2nd visit will be required after waiting for more parts to be shipped. The microwave has to be uninstalled every time they service it, and it takes 3 failed repairs before Best Buy will just replace the unit. I called and asked for a new unit and was denied. I called LG at Best Buy's request and they said they cannot issue a return authorization until they send their own technician out to attempt repairs. All this when trying to use the home one weekend out of every couple of months, and the repair team requires someone the unit during repairs. Tricky when we are not there and the only times we can be there are when we are trying to enjoy a little break from work (without a functioning microwave). No new microwave should fail after 2 uses and in my book is a lemon without having to suffer through up to 3 repair visits and months of inability to use the unit. All reps have been friendly and professional, but if this is what "Total Rewards" buys you, the program could be FAR more forgiving on products that fail out of the gates. Just offer a replacement unit---at $300, it's far less expensive than sending a team of 2 technicians 3 times, and unmeasurably more convenient for the customer. Questioning my choice of LG and Best Buy for the first time ever....

    this microwave is a piece of garbage and the LG support is even worse. After 2.5 years the unit stopped heating for no reason (usually the magnetron). The magenetron has a 10 year warranty but LG will not honor it unless their technician visits for a flat rate of $370 WHICH IS MORE THAN THE MICROWAVE COSTS. unbelievable that Best Buy would sell such a piece of junk

      Hi, there. Thank you for reaching out. We understand the importance of having your LG Microwave (MVEL2033F) model operate reliably. When a microwave runs but does not heat, one helpful step you can try is performing a power reset. Unplug the unit for about 60 seconds, then plug it back in to allow the internal safety switches and control board to reinitialize. It can also help to check that the door is fully aligned, as a misaligned door switch can prevent the heating system from activating even though the light and fan still run. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/lg-microwave-why-is-my-microwave-not-heating-properly--20153229630502. We’d like to take a closer look into your experience and review what options may be available for your unit. Please send us an email at [email protected]. We're here to help. ^Juvy LG

    I love the sleek look. It took me awhile to get used to not having the handle on the front, it looks so much better without it. I’m very happy with the purchase and highly recommend it.
