    The extended vent is amazing. I really like this microwave. I find it irritating that turning on the stove turns off the light on the microwave but that is supposedly a safety feature. I love the microwave and tolerate the stove.

    Overall I am happy with the new microwave and it looks super nice. Only thing I am concerned is that…whenever ever I turn it on, I am hearing loud noise during startup. Which I have called the technician to fix it next week.

    We are really liking this microwave. We had the Samsung Chefs Series and it was the worst from day 1. It finally and thankfully brok after just a few years and we switched to LG. This is our 4th Samsung appliance breaking in under 5 years (Washer, Dryer and fridge broke previously) and all have been replaced with LG. We will never buy Samsung appliances again.

    We had to replace an older model when the Geek Squad said it would be cheaper to replace it than to try and repair it. Only used it a few times, and am still learning some of the bells and whistles, but so far it works well.
