  • Better Than The Last LG Microwave

    This one was purchased to replace another LG microwave that stopped working 2 months after the warranty expired. So far this one works very good and I was able to just remove the old one and just drop it in place, as they were very similar. The only gripe is that I don't think it cooks popcorn as well as some of my older microwaves. For that I just use the Insignia microwave in my basement.

    I love how this product syncs with my stove. The fan and lights come on every time I use my stove. I was even able to customize the fan speed. I can push the exhaust hood and it would extend out over my stove a bit further than normal.

    This solved an issue that annoyed my wife with the one it replaced, and that by itself made this one a good purchase. It is an elegant addition to what is becoming an all-LG kitchen. It is big, powerful, and easy to keep clean. I don’t use the extended vent much, but it's nice having it. LED lighting inside and underneath is very good. It's loaded with cooking features. If I'd change anything, it would be to have a lighted keypad.

    Simple to operate. I like the extend a vent feature to cover the range better. Works like most other microwaves. Plenty of features that add to its value like + 30 seconds, more modes to name some. Got it on sale too!!

    So easy to use for elderly parents and I love the slide out extension for the vent fan. In the future we also have the option of turning this into an exhaust to the outside with this particular model
