Take the guesswork out of cooking with LG's 1.8 cu. ft. over-the-range microwave. Sensor Cooking's humidity-sensing technology detects when foods are cooked and turns off the microwave to help avoid under- or over-cooked dishes. And when it's time for cleanup, you won't spend hours scrubbing - LG's EasyClean interior comes clean with just a wipe, no scrubbing necessary. Plus, Energy Savings Key saves energy by turning off the display when it's not in use. Dinner's never been so easy.

Deceptive Stock Photos....
on January 17, 2023
Posted by: RacerX
Verified Purchase:Yes
I can't comment on how well this unit works, because I didn't keep long enough to test it. However I can comment on the fact that LG really should consider using more accurate photos for thier appliances, in particular their microwaves. This particular model, based on the photos, gives the impression that the keypad features white numbers/names, etc. This couldn't be further from the truth. When I recevied mine and installed it, the keypad digits are actually grey in color, over a black background, made it extremely diffciult to see clearly unless standing up-close to it. In no way is the keypad in the stock photos an indication of what it looks like on an actual unit. I quickly returned it and got a different LG model that does in fact feature a white keypad. I am a big fan of LG, all of my new appliances are LG (first time customer) and my soon to be television will be LG as well, the only thing that bothers me is deceptive photos that don't truly represent the product.

Barcode Removal & Other Tips for Collectors
on April 5, 2022
Posted by: RacerX
Verified Purchase:Yes
For those who qualified to get this case here is some helpful info:
1. Not all steelbooks come shrinkwrapped, in the case of this one, they aren't shinkwrapped.
2. There are reports of these shipping with bar code stickers. They should not sticker an item that is not shrinkrapped as the sticker can cause damage, as some are experiencing. The best way to remove these stickers without damaging the case is to heat up the sticker, with a heat gun or hold under a lamp. Don't have it too close or too hot, you just want to heat/warm it up enough so the adhesive material on the back of the sticker looses up and then you can peel off the sticker SLOWLY. Any residue left over Goo Gone should work to remove any of it.
3. Packaging needs improvement when these ship out, yes everyone agrees on that. The people who pack these don't understand that these are a collectible to many. If you log into your Best Buy account and go to "Orders" see if yours has shipped out, if it hasn't, you may have the ability to change yours for local store pick-up as most stores are getting some inventory in this weekend (April 9th) based on what the site says and when they ship to the stores they generally come in with regular stock on their delivery trucks and are in better condition.
Just some helpful tips, hope this all helps everyone.

Someone needs to remind Best Buy they are charging $200 over the MSRP price set by LG which is $1799.99 for the CX 55". The bigger CX 65" model has an MSRP of $2799.99 which is what Best Buy is charging but the 55" they have listed or $1999.99. Perhaps an error with their site, but anyone who paid $1999.99 is paying $200 over what they should have. Just an FYI.....

4 out of 5Great movie but no Digital copy
By Ty24
So this movie I bought was $32.99 only a blue ray and 4k DVD version. Don't get me wrong the movie is great but my two biggest issues with it were there was no Digital copy of it and when I buy blue ray, DVD, and Digital copy it's the same price as this movie. Usually with blue ray or 4K DVD, DVD and with Digital copy being this price I completely understand and it's ok because come on you get three things in one DVD stuff but it only comes in two like the 4K version and Blue-ray that's kinda too expensive of this DVD player. So that's my biggest issue with it. It doesn't come with a digital copy and it's too expensive without the Digital copy.
RacerX

It's Blu-ray, not Blue-ray. The reason there is no digital copy is because HBO wants people to stream it on their service and have people subscribe to that. If a film will feature a digital copy insert it will state so on the front of the packaging so future reference if you don't see it mentioned on the packaging, chances are there won't be one inside.

Only preordered from bestbuy to get the steelbook, when I pick it up they tell me there’s no steelbook bonus, which is a lie.
RacerX
April 5, 2022
When the game was first put up for pre-order on the Best Buy website back in January 2021 the steelbook pre-order incentive was for both versions of the game, standard and deluxe. I noticed up until a few months before the game's release it was still showing as such but then the incentive was removed from the Deluxe version so anyone who had pre-ordered either version would have gotten it, but those who pre-ordered the deluxe version within the past few months it wasn't available as a pre-order. Also, the steelbook is shipping separately from the game so if you qualified at the time you pre-ordered, it still could show up in the mail. Best thing to do is log into your Best Buy account, go to "orders" and check your order for the game, the steelbook should be listed there and may give you an update on if it is shipping by itself. If you qualified and still don't get one, contact customer service over the phone.

By Neal
Only reason I bought the game through best buy was for the steel book. Shipped separately from the game itself and arrived before it, which is strange. When I opened the package there was no plastic seal on the case itself, instead it had a barcode sticker on the back of it kind of ruining the point of this decorative case. On top of that there is an inch long scratch on the front of my case, and the case doesnt quite shut right, almost like the front and back are misaligned.

That isn't true there have been plenty of steelbooks that have come shrink-wrapped, which is done by the manufacturer of the steelbooks not Best Buy. Elden Ring, Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy, Ghostwire Tokyo and Halo Infinite are all recent examples of steelbook cases that did come shrinkwrapped. Cyberpunk 2077 however wasn't. The scratches can be avoided if all steelbooks would be shinkwrapped at time of manufacture, but some aren't.

As of today, you can go in store and order the steelbook to have it shipped for $9.99. For some reason you cant on the app but if you go in store and they input the sku number, then they can. Got one today for myself. Just a tip for those who missed the preorder window.

Good tip but it shows sold-out on their end now according to an employee. More than likely pre-orders exceeded the amount of steelbooks produced.

5 out of 5LG C3 OLED Evo Review: A Stunning Upgrade
By DiamondEyez
LG has done it again with its latest OLED TV, the LG C3. This ultra-slim TV is succeeding the highly regarded LG C2, and it’s already shaping up to be a contender for one of the best TVs of 2023.
The LG C3 features a slim design with a composite back and thin bezels, making it a sleek and elegant addition to any living room. The TV comes in a range of screen sizes from 42in to 83in, so you can find the perfect fit for your space. Additionally, the stand that comes with the TV is almost identical to its predecessor, but now there's an optional bracket designed for the SC9S Dolby Atmos soundbar that turns with the TV.
When it comes to picture quality, the LG C3 is a cut above the rest. The Alpha 9 AI Processor Gen 6 and OLED Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro technologies help to enhance the picture quality significantly. Additionally, the TV has Dolby Vision IQ, Dolby Atmos, HDR10 Pro, and HLG. With AI Super Upscaling Pro, sub-4K content is enhanced to look like 4K, and the OLED Dynamic Tone Mapping Pro enables the TV to break an image into 20,000 zones, giving you the most accurate picture possible. During our demo, we noticed the C3 had punchy colours, deep blacks, and an overall brighter appearance than its predecessor.
The LG C3 has upgraded webOS, featuring fewer pages and Quick Cards to make navigation easier. The Personalised Picture Wizard is a new feature that helps you to get your desired picture settings with ease. This feature presents you with six sets of eight images, and for each set, you choose your two preferred images based on colour, brightness and saturation. At the end of the Personalised Picture Wizard, the TV calibrates the picture image based on your preferences.
In conclusion, the LG C3 is a fantastic TV that delivers incredible picture quality, ease of use, and an ultra-slim design that will impress anyone who lays their eyes on it. If you’re looking for a TV that will elevate your viewing experience, the LG C3 is definitely worth the purchase.

Reads more like a copy-and-paste review from a professional site than a typical BB customer who purchased it for themselves. Still, a person can't go wrong with the C3 if they want the latest and greatest, despite the fact that LG made only very slight changes to it over the C2 models from 2022. The biggest difference between the C2 and the C3 is the price. Save some money and go with the C2, or if you must have the newest television, and money is not an issue, the C3 is the way to go, unless you want to get the G3 where LG mad most of the changes for 2023.

The advanced LG OLED evo C5-Series is better than ever. The LG OLED evo C5 is powered by the next-gen Alpha 9 Gen8 AI Processor ~exclusively made for LG OLED~for ultra-realistic picture and sound along with boosted brightness for luminosity and high contrast, even in well-lit rooms. AI-assisted deep learning analyzes what you're watching and uses your preferences to choose the best picture and sound setting for your content. The C5's almost invisible bezel, ensures it blends with your surroundings. When you're finished watching, display art, photos and other content make the C5 a versatile statement piece. Search less and stream more, thanks to the next generation of AI technology from LG webOS 25. Every LG OLED comes loaded with Dolby Vision for extraordinary color, contrast and brightness, plus Dolby Atmos~ for immersive sound you can feel all around you. FILMMAKER MODE allows you to see films just as the director intended. Packed with gaming features, the LG OLED evo C-Series comes with everything you need to win like a 0.1ms response time, native 120Hz refresh rate, with VRR for PC gaming and four HDMI 2.1 inputs.

No dts anymore, and no dolby vision on chip anymore means this tv is completely worthless. Dolby is a joke when it comes to consumers. They are always trying to squeeze their customers for every last penny they have it seems like.

LG, you need not waste your time responding to people like Blahblah who clearly have zero idea what they are talking about. They posted two reviews saying the same thing. How and why Best Buy allows people to review items they know nothing about is beyond me.

RacerX's Questions
Best Buy Totaltech~ is the membership you and your tech deserve: around-the-clock tech support, up to 24 months of product protection with active membership,~ free delivery and standard installation,~ plus so much more. It~s the plan you need to protect the tech you love.
Looking at buying six home appliances, will one $199.99 Totaltech membership cover ALL six appliances for 2-years? When the 2-year coverage is up, can I renew the Totaltech membership for another 2 years of coverage after that?

Will it coming out with 8K also??
No disrespect intended towards LG, but 8K is nothing more than a marketnig gimmick. There is no 8K content out there, and prices are quite high. There is also next to zero difference in quality compared to 4K, the only slight benefit is if you sit very close to a large screen (90" or larger). The average consumer doesn't have the wall space to display a television that big. Electronic manufactuers are always finding new ways to improve, naturally there was a huge jump in quality from VHS to DVD, then to Blu-ray, and now to 4K Ultra-HD but we are at a point where the human eye can't really tell any differences, unless as mentioned you have a very large screen and you sit very close. Sadly, there were will be a ton of people who fall for the "8K" thing and waste their money on it. Put the money towards a very nice 4K television and you will be set. You can't go wrong with LG's C-series or G-series, the new C3/G3 line is hitting now. The G3 is where you will see a nice improvement over the G2 from 2022, but the C3 is not really an improvement over the C2 from 2022 so if you want to go all out, the G3 is very nice, but the C2 would save you quite a bit. I am going with the 65" C2 within the next week myself.

LG makes laundry easier with a modern update of the familiar top load washer. Mega capacity handles more clothes in every load, paired with TurboWash3D technology that delivers a powerful clean in less time than ever. With the ThinQ app, you can get alerts on your smartphone the minute clothes are clean, and control key washer features from anywhere, at any time. And with Smart Pairing, the washer can even tell the dryer to select a compatible drying cycle, making it the ultimate laundry hack.
Which cycle should be used for towels and sheets? Normal, Heavy Duty or Deep Wash are the options. The bedding cycle seems to be for non absorbent items.
In the past I would simply go with Normal but if you have a lot of sheets and/or towels together, go with Heavy Duty, just don't over stuff the washer, rather split it up between two wash loads.

What is an impeller?
There is no traditional agitator in this washer if you choose an impeller which means there no tall center shaft in the washing machine. There is a much shorter one, it raises up only slightly in the center. I decided on the impeller model having one before, and I enjoying being able to fit more bulkier items in the washer like blankets, a comforter, etc.

What's the height with the lid flipped up?
I just had this washer and matching dryer delivered recently but have not used them. With the lid up on the washer, from the ground I measured 58 inches and that is leaving a tiny gap, so I would say 57 to 58 inches with the lid open fully if you are measuring because of cabinets over them, etc.
