    We bought this microwave because it has a completely smooth front (no handle) and looks really sleek in our kitchen above the stove. The Exta Vent increases the surface area for the venting. The only con that some other reviewers have mentioned is that all the lights for control panel are completely off when not in use and I just knock on the microwave with my knuckles twice to get them on

    Absolutely love this microwave, it’s so sleek, so easy to clean, and so user friendly. It does take a little longer to warm up certain things so instead of 30seconds is put it for 45 or a minute but that’s just my preference because I like things extra scorching hot. Personally, I don’t mind the extra time needed because over all this is the best microwave I’ve ever had that just pulls my kitchen together

    A sleek and classy design with bells and whistles

    So far, I really like this microwave. The display is big and backlit, which makes being able to see in the dark very easy. The sleek design is still classy, so it pairs well with my old black appliances and doesn't look to out of place. It's wifi enabled, which is nice when I need to turn the fan or light off but don't feel like getting up, but not really a necessity. The fan extension has been incredibly helpful in adding additional coverage over the range, especially in my tiny home. Installation was very quick, and the Best Buy installation team did a great job of installing and cleaning up. They even fixed my vent, as it hadn't been properly attached by the previous installers to filter out through the duct and out, but was actually blowing the air back into my kitchen and living room (defeating the purposes of a vent)! Very happy!

    We've had this installed for about two weeks. We are very happy with it so far. The extend a vent feature seems to work pretty well. That was what steered me towards LG and I'm glad I bought it. My wife wasn't sold on the modern look at first but now that she's been using it she loves it. Her square dinner plates go around without hitting the door like they did in our old OTR microwave. I would like much brighter interior lighting when it is running so I can see better what's cooking. The controls are easy to use and mostly intuitive. If it is reliable then I will be even happier that I chose this one.

    Beautiful, high tech and lots of presets. I love that this microwave looks so good and performs so well. The fan is really effective especially with the extending vent. I like the alerts in the app when the food is done. I also like all the presets and smart sensor cooking. The only issues I have are that while the stainless steel doesn’t show fingerprints (awesome) the glass of course does so you’re still wiping it down frequently and the touch sensitivity could be a tad higher to match what we are used to with our phones and tablets.

    So far this microwave has been nice to have in the house. It heats the food evenly and doesn't seem like it overcooks a specific area. The wifi connectivity is also a plus!

    Just installed, but love it already. It looks amazing and so modern along with our LG range. The illuminated touch panel is a perfect match. Completely blacked out except click when idle, and when on they are nice and bright and crisp. Honestly, it was very hard to tell in the pictures and was worried they would be printed on, but they are exactly as hoped for. Also, connecting to wifi and LG app was a breeze, and linked easily to the range to turn on fan and light when burner is activated. Super happy, and highly recommend.

    It's the first microwave someone will compliment

    First lets state the obvious, it's a microwave. LG did not reinvent this technology nor am I convinced with the gimmicky scan your food for automatic timer. With that said, as far as being a microwave, it does that well. I also do not think you need to connect this to your wifi to control your fan speed or turn on your lights, but I did. Where this microwave stands out is the looks. My friend came over and honestly asked what was above my stove. Its a stunner appliance. I also like the extend vents which come in handy when you use the front burners. The LED light is also a nice touch and looks nice when turned on. The no handle was diffrent but we got used to it quickly. My only complaint! The window is so dark its really hard to see the food when you are microwaving, but thats where it ends. I would buy it again if it died in a few years.

    It is absolutely stunning, and such a huge upgrade to the look and functionality of my kitchen. I cook a lot, as I have a large family, and I love how this has HUGE vent hood power! What a game changer! The main reason I chose this one over others was the extra extend-a-vent feature and that it has Turbo vent! My kitchen smells less then it ever, ever did with the way this vents! I love this soooo much! The microwave ins absolutely beautiful, roomy, and I love the sleek, minimalist look it has. I love how I only see the touch screen buttons when I want to, not all the time. I love the interior- how it is enamel and not plastic like my old microwave. I also love the cool, bluish interior light--very cool! It is also a very powerful microwave! It cooks quickly and thoroughly! I am sooo happy I decided to upgrade my microwave! I recommend this one 10/10!

    I do not like using microwaves for cooking, mostly bought it for the vent and to complete my kitchen. Looks amazing and vents well. I find myself using it for prep work now, it has some great features like soften.

    I love how clean it looks, with no handles. Works well. With the slide-out vent, it might be taller than comparable units. The buttons on the bottom were a selling point for me as a vertically-challenged individual. I love it so far, just wish it was a little quieter. (maybe all microwaves are the same?)

    The microwave looks great and installation by Beat Buy was a breeze. It’s a little noisier than I expected but I can definitely deal with that vs the not working thing my old Whirlpool did.

    This is a great microwave, it’s big and spacious. My family loves it. The only thing I don’t like is that it’s not fingerprint proof. I love the lil music it plays when your food is done. I love the ability to connect it to the app.

    So far so good. Very modern design with a great ventilation feature. Only downside is the glass needs to be regularly cleaned due to fingerprints. Not surprising at all but something to consider since the controls are on the actual glass. It seems all appliance manufacturers have there reliability issues but I’ve had a lot of luck with LG vs. Samsung (utter garbage) and others. I’ll be sticking with them for a while.
