I purchased my LG microwave oven based on product features and and looks. I wanted it to be sleek and modern yet without the trendy ultra-modern look that I would soon tire of. I love how the handle attaches, seemingly "disappearing" into the finish giving me a seamless and beautiful design. It's super easy to use, and I especially love the "one touch" features which I use every day, such as soften, hot water and turntable "off", a real bonus! Thanks, LG! I'll be back!

I bought this microwave in Aug 08. The construction of the door handle is very poor. Since Aug '08 the handle has broken off twice. The repair man has to replace the whole door because of the doors poor design. It was still under warrenty, but that will be up next month and I am sure the handle will break again. The repair man said he has replaced alot of doors on LG microwaves.

Comments about LG Over-The-Range Stainless Steel Microwave Oven:

I have had this unit for about 4 years. Works well, but the door cracked just below the door handle. This seems to have happened to others also, so I think it is a production defect.

Fell Apart

By Arklady

from Fayetteville, AR, USA

Comments about LG Over-The-Range Stainless Steel Microwave Oven:

I've had mine for 4 years now and it is just completely falling apart. The handle has broke off of it. And the cover up top for the fan has broke and won't stay on now. It still works ok. The defrost either doesn't defrost enough or too much and starts cooking the food. For basics like hot drinks or leftovers, it's fine.

I've owned this microwave for 2 years and have had no significant issues with it. What I don't like is that it's loud if you don't vent it outside and the door seems to not be attached properly.

Priced right, looks nice. Haven't used it a lot, but I like the soften feature. I wish it had a timer though, but that was easy to solve. It's much quieter then my old one.

Cooks Well, Poor Vent

By ttwitewolf

Pros

Easy to use

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about LG Over-The-Range Stainless Steel Microwave Oven:

Every thing works great except the vent. It has plenty of features, more than I need. But when cooking on the stove and steam is flowing and the vent is blowing, the steam just flows around the microwave instead of being sucked through the filters. I had a service tech check it out and he said the company switched to a lower power motor and that's the best it can do. It does hold a tissue up, barely. But other than the vent, it cooks great!

Comments about LG Over-The-Range Stainless Steel Microwave Oven:

This microwave looks great in my kitchen. I had to replace my old one and chose this model due to price point. However, it has many features that are a great bonus and it is very quiet in comparison to my previous vent hood microwave.
