A few days after purchase the door would not open unless you press on the button really hard and re-align the door a bit. Also had a electrical burning smell every now and then. I returned the product within 2 wks.

What's great about it: Nice design
What's not so great: Very loud
The microwave looks nice but it was very loud. I placed it on different surfaces to see if the problem was my countertop. Regardless of the surface, it was still very loud. Returned it for a cheaper Sharp microwave that I really like.

What's great about it: Quick cook time, good price
Powerful, spacious, handles like a dream... Oh wait, this is for a microwave, not a car. Still, the first two apply. Cook times are fast, so you may want to use a lower cook time than packaging suggests

This unit stopping heating food about 2 months after I got it. LG's service department has been very difficult to contact. Their on-line service web site returns a error every time I try to submit a warranty claim. Contacting their service department by phone gives you a telephone number to call for drop-off service, but the shop in Irvine says they can no longer service microwaves and the next closest shop is 30 miles away. Forget It! I guess I will buy a different brand somewhere else.

What's great about it: LG Brand is usually a good thing
What's not so great: Lasted only one week.
Usually buying an LG product is a safe choice, but when it comes to microwaves, the unit looked sturdy and nice, but performance was pathetic. It was hardly used but died within a week. If this were the first LG microwave I've had problems with I would chalk it up to being the one bad unit in the bunch, but unfortunately it isn't the first poor quality unit I've seen. I returned mine for a much better (and cheaper) Panasonic.

Very good microwave

The popcorn button actually works well for miniature (100 calorie) bags.
Cooks evenly and well. No cold spots on prepared foods.
Do not forget to remove the plastic coating from the oven before you use it the first time, or it will never come off later, and you can damage the oven because the air will not circulate through the vents on the left side.

What's not so great: Stops heating after 3 months!
I had the model below this one for a couple years, when it stopped heating, so had to buy a new one. I upgraded to this model because of the features it offered. The microwave worked fine at first, and here, only three months later, it stopped heating, just lke the last one! Now I have to jump through hoops in order to get it serviced. I'll never buy another LG microwave again, and probably will not buy any other LG product, either. Quality not what it used to be.

What's not so great: they both were broken.
The first one was delivered with a smashed door, so we quickly returned that and got a second one. When we got that one, the door was not on great. The hinge side of the door was not shutting properly. There was a gap there. I placed a flashlight inside, shut the door, and I could see clearly the light through the hinge when the door was closed. We quickly returned that one too and chose a different brand and model.

Complicated features / Broke :(

What's great about it: I don't have it anymore.
What's not so great: Stopped working after 2 months.
My wife and I spent a lot of time looking for a microwave and landed on this one. The features seemed nice, the size and power were great, but when we got it home and turned it on, we were a bit disappointed. It was pretty loud, the custom cook features weren't intuitive (needed the manual to discover that punching number 4 brings up the liquid option), and most gut-wrentching of all, the brown interior looked a bit depressing when the microwave lit up (okay, I'm being a little sarcastic), and the true reason I'm writing this review is because it stopped working after 2 months. Best Buy was great with letting us return it, and my "like" for LG hasn't changed, though now I'll stick to phones and TVs.

What's great about it: Looks good / right size
What's not so great: Stopped working
We liked the size and looks of microwave. It worked very well for 43 days - then microwave stopped working. You could select numbers and functions - but when you pressed start - it functioned as a timer - nothing inside microwave. Since it was working good - we did get a replacement - but will watch for 45 day return if needed again - then rating would drop lower.

This was to replace our broken old microwave, and it is far better then any I've ever used before. I ordered it online line for store pickup, and 1 hour later it was waiting for me at the front of the store. It's really the best microwave we've ever had.

LG MICROWAVE TO THINK 2X BEFORE SELECTING
Customer Rating
1.0
What's great about it: IT LOOKS GREAT AND EASY TO CLEAN WHEN IT SCORCHES THE FOOD
What's not so great: THE SENSORS NEED TO BE SHIPPED BACK TO CHINA AND REPLACED WITH SENSORS MADE IN THE USA.
The first LG microwave I purchased shut off in 10 seconds of less. Then, I lugged it back to the store and exchanged this for another unit. The product is very large for a countertop. This 2nd unit needs to be returned because of the followng reasons: Food was burned into a Corelle plate since the sensors do not work properly. The only somewhat safe way to use this requires supervising: I stand nearby and guess when to shut off this piece of junk. On the other side of these issues, it is difficult to heat a cup of coffee. Go figure?? I have checked and Best Buy has not restocked this unit so an exchange has not been possible. I will most likely buy another Sharp with sensors that work everytime.

What's great about it: Fast cooking, easy to clean, looks great!!
What's not so great: wish it had a minute/2minute button but thats all so far!
I hesitated to buy a new microwave because I saw so many bad reviews. After a couple of months I gave in to this one. I had a sharp before for about 12 years. I decided to stay away from sharp after reviews from others like me who expected the same quality as older models and had the opposite experience with the newer ones. I am very happy with this microwave so far! Its only been about 1 1/2-2 months, but great so far!

What's great about it: Overall good product.
What's not so great: Have not found anything I dislike about the product.
I like the sensor touch for various foods, for example, frozen entree, popcorn, etc. I like the gourmet options features, for example, one is 1 lb. defrost. I also like that it sounds when time is up, and also for the cooling period it sounds again I know that product is cool enough to handle. I had never bought an LG product before and was looking more at name brands. Two persons in store said they owned LG microwaves and they had been reliable, so decided to try this LG product.

What's great about it: Good Price
What's not so great: display screen
I like all the different settings, the manual was very useful and easy to understand.
The only thing I have problems with is being able to read the display when standing up to the microwave, you can not see the whole display, the upper part is cut off, ex. 7 looks like a 1.

I've only had this for a short time, but everything is as I thought it would be when I purchased it. Ease of use, large interior, and the power for quick cooking are all good. Like the reheat option, although it would be better if it was 1 touch reheat.

What's great about it: Looks nice
What's not so great: Turntable won't turn, brand new out of the box
Looks nice. Numbers on pad are kind of a gray color and are hard to see in low lighting. Installed it per manual instructions. When trying to use it for the first time, the turn table would not turn. This microwave is Made in China. Will be returning it for a refund.

What's great about it: Power, shortchut keys, size and price! Definitely worth the bang for your buck!
My mom's Sanyo microwave finally died 26yrs. Yes,26yrs. You can imaginge the size. We went shopping for a new and were surprised and shocked at the size and price of the newer models. I came across this LG model and loved the size, watts, and features. I ended up buying one not just for my mother but me as well. My mother loves it. She really loves how powerful it is. She loves the fact that she can make a quick breakfast before work and that the food stays hot even when cooking food at 50% power. She can't wait to cook other foods in it. I myself used it for the first time this morning and I have to agree it is a great microwave. I love the melt feature. Can't wait to cook a baked potato for lunch. Keep up the good work LG! P.S. I do have previous experience with LG products. I also own a 55in LG LCD HD flat screen..
