[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hi LG, I love LG products; all my appliances are LG brand. But I don't recommend this OTR. Very stupid product design for "Extend Ventilation" When you need to turn on "LIGHT" or/and "Extend Ventilation", you need to open the OTR front door first to activate "ON button" on the glass. There is no other option to turn on "LIGHT" or/and "Extend Ventilation". Question to LG Design Team, : It is a bad design. Why do you design like that? The "LIGHT" and "Extend Ventilation" should turn on / off via the on/off button without the front door opening. I couldn't believe how stupid it is.

I was very skeptical in general on over the range microwaves as effectiveness in the vent, but this one is an excellent choice. We have the exhaust going outside and basically we can do any frying and no smell inside. It is very powerful and we can see how the smoke is exhaust. The microwave is super quiet and the design we simply love it. Totally worth the money spent!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very impressed with this microwave, more than I expected. Most microwaves work the same and this one functions as it should but better. I love how the screen lights up when you use it and is dark when it is not used. I am extremely impressed with its exhausting ability. I can't stop recommending microwave to friends and family.

Love my new microwave! The integrated handle on the side (rather than on the front) makes for a minimal and sleek look. And I love the display panel integrated into the door. Feels so much bigger and definitely a visual upgrade to my old microwave.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best over the stove/oven microwave I've seen. I love that it extends over the stove if you are frying and need to pull up the smoke and fumes with just a push of the bar. The fan is strong, the lighting is nice as it brightens up gently and is bright enough to see the stove top well.

The surface of the slide-out hood has a defective painting. Basically, the paint peeled off. Please take a look at the pictures I've attached. Note, this is not a mechanical damage! The paint was removed during the regular cleaning by a simple kitchen sponge.

We bought this microwave 7 months ago. We had professional installation and use the microwave daily. The different functions are useful, especially the auto defrost and the sensor cook. I like the +30 seconds for short heating or to add time to one of the presets. Turning off the sound is easy; then we don't disturb one another when on different schedules. The extendavent is helpful when we use the range top that we have below.

ExtendaVent is a gimmick. I bought this LG microwave because I thought the ExtendaVent is a brilliant design. After installing the microwave and using it, when you open the ExtendaVent, the suction is so weak that you don't even see any smoke being vented out. The only way for Smoke to be vented out is when you close the ExtendaVent. This design is a total gimmick, please do not buy this microwave for the ExtendaVent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall the microwave itself is great. However, I have serious complaints about the install process. You need good studs AND good overhead/sides support to mount this thing proper. Additionally, they ask that you use an outlet. Not everyone can do that depending on how your home is set up. Installation instructions are vague at best.

Had this for just over a month, and loving it! Ended up purchasing for the extended vent feature and sleek modern design, but enjoying all of the other cooking settings, such as reheat, soften, defrost etc. Before this purchase, I thought a microwave was just a microwave, but have been proved wrong. 2 minor pet peeves....every finger print shows, but are easily wiped off, and controls do not seem to light up unless you open the microwave to wake them up. This is my first over the range microwave, but would recommend it all day long.
