Nice microwave November 11, 2008
The microwave is fine. I miss having a "one minute" button that you can push for 1-? minutes. It may have one but I haven't read the instructions.
Good, but not awesome, microwave October 27, 2008
I'm totally enamored with my LG washer/dryer and had really high expectations on this microwave. I've had it about a month now and while it's a good microwave, I have to admit I'm not completely overwhelmed by it's greatness.
The good: It has the sensor cooking, it's very powerful, it has a shelf so you can cook a number of items at once and I can fit my 9 x 13 casserole dishes in there!
On the other hand: It's loud (louder than my dishwasher and wash machine), the sensor is a little hit and miss and the shelf is a bit low and gets in the way whenever I place a no-splatter cover over items I'm cooking.
The sensor bases the cooking on the amount of moisture in the microwave, so the problem could be that I'm covering the items too tightly or not tightly enough. But it's been undercooking on the Sensor Cook items and overheating on the Sensor Reheat items. It's not a huge issue. I can still leave the kitchen and know that the food will be somewhat close to what it needs to be if I'm not back in time.
Overall, it's a definite upgrade from what I had. And if you're searching for a sensor-cook over-the-range microwave at a good price, this one will work for you.
As a side note, Amazon provided great customer service. We received the microwave about a week after ordering, but it came with a big dent in the corner of it. (Whoever shipped it didn't provide any extra packaging and I'm sure it happened during shipping.) I contacted Amazon and they provided a return mailing slip and sent a new microwave that arrived days later in great shape.

This microwave is wonderful. The quick heat buttons are convenient and easy to use. If you read Consumer Reports, it says this (or similiar) microwave has only a useful space of 0.9 cubic feet. Not so. This has a full 2.0 cubic feet of space which is great for cooking a ham or a large casserole dish. Very sharp design, useful and adequate lighting underneath. For the installation/do-it-yourselfers: It's 60 pounds and you have to lift it above your shoulders if you are installing over a stove. Follow the instructions to the letter, and all will turn out great. The directions are very good. Note: If you can, remove your stove before installing the microwave. The mfgr doesn't mention this, but it made things a lot easier (and I got to clean under it!)...2-3(-3 preferred) people are definitely needed to install this safely due to its weight and awkward size. I recommend this microwave highly!
Decent oven, inexpensive, not too bad to install. October 9, 2008

I bought this oven to replace a Whirlpool of equal size. I like the LG. It's a little more powerful, and the moisture sensor seems to work pretty well. It's a heavy beast and you will want to use the template that comes with it to lay out the installation bracket positions and holes for the support bolts. Get those right and the installation is no big deal. It does take two people to horse this 60 lb. appliance into place while starting the bolts, threading the cord etc.
It took me a couple of hours from opening the box to firing it up and I was a cabinet installer in my youth. Still, no big deal.
Tip: use a light spray adhesive to attach the layout template to the bottom of upper support cabinet.
 Broken microwave September 22, 2008

This microwave broke 1 week after I received it. The plastic on the key pad also lasted less than a week. Couldn't get a service person here to repair for 1 week after. Not a good experience!!!!
