terrible ventilation fan, food design, good cooking and reheating functions

This OTR microwave is good in every way but its weak ventilation fan. The fan barely pulls cooking fumes while cooking on the range top burners. I expected more, especially with the filters that are part of the microwave to remove some of the greasy cooking fumes from the kitchen. Is this a defect of design or of my individual OTR microwave oven?
Pros: Inexpensive, Bright display, good design, good cooking function, eco button to turn off display when not in use, coordinates with my gas range design and color
Cons: Did not meet expectations, weak ventilation fan
I would recommend this to a friend!

Should have the ability to change power levels without turning off machine and restarting if you want to change power levels on the go
Should have the ability to turn the turntable off if standing is the preferred way to micro wave.
Should have more than two fan settings. Lower setting is too weak for most stove top uses.
Pros: Bright display
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
