    Features make this a standout

    There are several features that make this microwave stand out from the rest. The extendable vent fan is actually quite effective. Ours vents through the top to outside, other configurations may vary. We have found that supply air with a cracked window or door to the outside is necessary depending on how "tight" your house is. The multiple fan speeds, including turbo power likely add to the effectiveness, yet are all quieter than other makes and models we have had in the past. The lighted controls on the door face are a great improvement over the plastic covered buttons of our previous oven. The face shows the clock only until you either open the door, or touch anywhere on the controls, then lights up to reveal all the options. The directions for the cooking features are just inside the door for reference. The only negative for me installing this was how flimsy the case frame has become. The mounting screws can visibly distort the frame if your cabinets are not perfectly level. Otherwise, the additional cost of this unit over lesser priced models was worth it for us

    The option to just turn on the burner and the otr kicks on on ur setting. Also to control the units through ur phone on an app it makes things so much easier. Just wish they add a camera inside to see the food or a sensor to check the meal temp lol yeah it’s getting close to that.but over all I am loving this unit.

    After 14 years we finally had to replace our LG studio series over the range microwave. Well this model ushered us into the future. The ease of use along with wifi connectivity makes cooking and heating a breeze. Not to mention it's sleek and modern design. Also we got it at a rally great price.

    We both really like the appearance, the smoke colored stainless steel is beautiful. We also like the no handle appearance. After opening the unit, we see our digital choices. The black face without digital readouts all the time, provides a sleek appearance.

    Fantastic microwave

    This microwave is fantastic. From the sensor cooking to the pre sets. It works great. The extend a vent is way better than a standard vent system. It actually vents what you are cooking outside. One disappointment - do not use Best Buy installation services. Their contracted vendor MN Plumbing and Home Services is a terrible company. The tech that did the installation was a hack and just slammed it in. He didn't line it up right and did not install the flange for the vent. He said it didn't line up. I took the microwave down when he left and remounted it with the proper flange installed. I'll be going back to Best Buy customer service to get a refund on the installation. Do it yourself or hire someone on your own. DO NOT USE THIS VENDOR.

    Suggest avoiding the extend a vent option

    Purchased this microwave two months ago and had it installed by best buy.. Great product, great service until I recently noticed a crack in the extend a vent. I contacted LG and was told that the warranty does not cover this issue.. Very dissappointed in LG for not taking care of fixing a manufacturing issue not even two months old.

    This LG microwave is great. It sucks up all the smoke from below on the stove with just the low or med fan. Have never had to use High or Turbo fan. No more grease on ceiling and cabinets above. The settings on the microwave are very accurate. Cooking is accurate with the minutes and food tastes great. The panel and the pull out fan is absolutely supreme.

    This model has the best feature, extent-a-vent. The old microwave did an ok job with the exhaust, but this model really catches it all and vents it out.

    We're redoing our kitchen and didn't want a microwave sitting on the counter, so an over the range microwave is the best option for our space. We're in a mid-century farm house, so it's not a huge kitchen. We chose this for two reasons: it was the top pick by a leading consumer agency (wink wink) for it's even heating, and because it isn't obviously a microwave sitting over your range. It also has an exhaust fan which is powerful and quieter than many dedicated range hoods. We hate noisy appliances. I put Panasonic whisper green exhaust fans in our bathrooms for that reason. The "extendavent" allows you to remove more of the odors/steam too. The thing we do miss is the inverter function we had on our old microwave. I couldn't find anyone who makes an inverter over the range microwave for sale in the US, and I can't figure out why. The controls work well and has a good capacity. If it had an inverter, it would get 5 stars.
