Great vacuum
on January 1, 2022
Posted by: John3976
Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent vacuum, can be used in a smaller home or apartment as the primary vacuum. A larger home will still require a full size vacuum but this vacuum makes a great secondary unit to get places a larger vacuum just won't reach. I am amazed at how well this little vacuum preforms as it does pick up dirt in areas a full size vacuum just can't get to.

Atlantic DVD/CD rack
on February 6, 2021
Posted by: John3976
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an OK rack but it does have a couple of short comings that are fixable, you have to attack the top three racks to the bottom two and they use two wooden dowels on each side and two screws. The screws strip out way to easy, you will need to source to larger screws and glue the top half to the bottom half. Once you do this the rack works as designed.

If you like the Back to the Future Trilogy this is the set to buy, they come in three SteelBook cases instead of the cardboard sleeve the over version comes in, the SteelBook cases protect the disks much better and look way better, the movies are the same other than the cases.

Range Cord
on January 23, 2021
Posted by: John3976
Verified Purchase:Yes
Not a bad range cord, if your house was built in 1996 or older you need a three prong cord, if your house was built in 1997 or later you need the four prong cord. People don't understand why they have to buy the cord but the reason is because of building codes the manufacture of the Range has no idea if you will need the older three prong cord or the newer four prong cord, that is why you have to purchase a cord.

You and your guests know good taste is about more than big flavors. Thanks to LG's sleek slide-in induction range with ProBake Convection, you won't just entertain - you'll wow. The generous 6.3 cu. ft. capacity oven handles that impressive roast and all the accompaniments, while ProBake Convection achieves baking perfection. And with the SmoothTouch glass controls and induction technology focusing the heat towards the bottom of the cookware only, it guarantees you quick and even heating as well as energy savings, and safe operation from start to finish.

LG LSE4616ST Induction Top Convection Oven
By John3976
We purchased this range in November 2020 when it was on sale so we saved $700.00 dollars on it, the induction burners are amazing, they allow you to control the heat immediately up or down resulting in better prepared food. We have Allclad Copper Core Stainless Steal pots and pans and with this induction cook top food just tastes better. The oven is very good as well, it preheats very fast and it cooks very well. We made cookies in it and they came out perfect no over baked bottoms like our old range would do. Water will boil in no time at all when on boost for the burners. We are very pleased with this induction/convection range and would recommend it.
Prices are still on the high side so if you can get it when a sale is going on it makes it a better deal but induction cook tops are the way to go.

Update on our LG induction cook top range
June 18, 2023
We have now owned this range for over 2 1/12 years now and it is awesome, the induction cook top is easy to clean with spray ceramic cook top cleaner sprays, what makes it easy to clean is because the cook top itself does not get as hot as a normal ceramic flat top range. Clean up is only 10 to 15 seconds and your induction cook top is clean. LG did a fantastic job on this induction cook top range and the oven works just as good with its temp control.
You won't go wrong with this LG LSE4616ST Induction Top Convection Oven. We highly recommend it.

If you think a refrigerator with top-of-the-line features means sacrificing style or space, this will make you reconsider. With nearly 25 cu. ft. of space, this 33" wide refrigerator has a large capacity. It also has Smart Cooling technology built-in, designed to help keep your food fresher. With that, and much more, you get the peace-of-mind of a 10-year warranty on the Smart Inverter Compressor.

LG Fridge
By Mike
Overall LG makes a great product and no exception with this fridge, The only thing missing on this fridge for those of you that like filtered water is a spot to get water, it has an icemaker so why not include a filter water spout.

LG makes other models with water and ice in door
June 24, 2023
You do know that LG makes other models with ice and water in the door right? Further the two biggest repair problems for refrigerators is those water and ice dispensers. For the best reliability you do not want water and ice dispensers in the door. There are some good review sites that explain this in detail. I just purchased LG refrigerator and picked it because it does not have water and ice in the door.

Magnets and stainless steel
June 24, 2023
There are different grades of stainless steel, the best grades are not magnetic while the lessor grades of stainless are magnetic. We have a Bosch micro wave and it uses the higher grade stainless steel and is not magnetic, it was manufactured in 2007 and still going strong. We just purchased a Bosch 800 series dishwasher and it uses a lower grade of stainless steel as it is magnetic. If this LG stainless steel refrigerator will allow a magnet to stick then it is using a lower grade stainless steel, there is nothing wrong with that as the higher the grade of stainless steel the more it costs.

Where do I find the F/ Serial Number?

Open the door and you will find a white label on the top left front of microwave frame as you are facing it, the model and serial number are located on this label with other information.

How do I turn on the task lights and the exhaust fan for the stove top below?

There is a button for tuning on the lights and the fan, you just push the light button once for its bright setting and push it again for the night light setting and push it one more time to turn off the lights. The fan button works the same way you push it to turn on the fan and push again to change the speed of the fan and push it again to turn off the fan.

Does this work with the same mounting bracket and top vent position as the Bosch HMV5053U? My HMV5053U just died and they are not available for order. I'd like to make reinstallation as easy as possible and use the existing mount and vent.

I am going to say no because we had the HMV9305/01 Bosch 1.8 cu ft microwave and this Bosch 800 Series is the replacement for that old Bosch series. The back bracket is different size wise, the same basic design but just enough different our old HMV9305/01 wall bracket did not work and we had to install the new wall bracket in place of the old one. Also the top mounting holes for the three top mounting screws are not in the same exact locations so you will have to drill three new holes.

I have a cut out in my kitchen to put a microwave oven. With this over the range microwave convection oven, what issues might I have to install or ventilate it.

The install is straight forward, no gotcha issues, there is a plate that mounts to the wall behind the microwave that has a lip on the bottom of the plate. Once the plate is installed on the wall the back of the microwave has a lip that will connect with the lip on the plate so you install it with the front are a downward angle then rotate the microwave upward to the bottom of the cabinet above it. You have drilled holes for the three mounting screws to go through the bottom floor of the cabinet and a larger holt for the plug and cord to fit through so you can plug the microwave into the 110 volt electric receptacle that powers the microwave. The unit does weigh just over 50 pounds so pull out your range so you can lift the microwave into place and have a help to insert the top mounting screws and pull the plug through its hole so it does not get pinched.

Since the dimensions are not exactly the same, will this 800 series fit properly (without any gaps on the sides) as a replacement for the Bosch HMV9305/01?

Yes this is a direct replacement size wise for the old Bosch HMV9305/01 microwave, they are both a 1.8 cu ft and the outer dimensions are very close to each other, any gap will be very small as this Bosch 800 Series is designed to fit in the same size cutout.

The interior of the 800 Series has a 14 inch rotating glass plate vs the old HMV9305/01 on having a 12 inch rotating glass plate so you will get more interior room with the Bosch 800 Series microwave.

can you toast bread in this microwave

No it is not a toaster and does not have an exposed heating element, it does have a convection oven so you could make frozen Texas toast style bread in it using the convection oven feature.

If the unit vents to room while mounted underneath a cabinet where does the airflow come out into the room? Is it out the top in the front part of the microwave not covered by a cabinet?

Yes the air will vent from the top front of the microwave blowing upwards.
