this is the third LG inverter that we have had - two of the same model had an issue with the magnetron and so we switched to this current model 18 mths ago - now have the issue of the microwave suddenly not heating - don't buy

I love this microwave, it's functional, stylish, and cheap. For me, I only use my microwave to reheat a meal occasionally so this is perfect for me. If you need a small, cheap microwave that doesn't look or function like a cheap microwave this is worth a look.

Bought just over 14 weeks ago and was delighted with its performance and sleek design. The defrost function left meat evenly defrosted without the cooked edges, and food cooked quickly and evenly. I quite enjoyed the end-of-cycle chirrup/melody, even though it was persistent. The unit was very quiet, and was easy to clean.
Unfortunately it developed a problem with the magnetron. After conversations with LG, this issue was resolved to my complete satisfaction.

The black design on this microwave looks sleek and modern. The manufacturing materials are of high quality. It is very reliable and cooks food evenly. There are a number of programming features but honestly I just use the quick start mode. I like that this microwave has a single button start. You don't need to enter the time or turn dials like some other microwaves.

1. There is no timer. ie you can use it to time boiling an egg. What the!? This is the first microwave in history without this feature.
2. The chime is really annoying. You can turn it off (Hold the Stop and press the inverter cook button), but the instructions aren't in the manual. Give me a nice single ding when cooking is done, not a tune that keeps playing until the door is opened.
3. The Inverter Defrost, Cook and Warm settings are extremely complicated. You need to keep the manual next to you. Or a cheat sheet.
4. Cooks ok. No better or worse than our old Panasonic unit.

This microwave looks very sleek in our kitchen. Lots of different heating/cooking/melting options available. The one I most frequently is the re-heating of a dinner plate meal - it takes around 7 mins and works great. Also softens butter without melting. Can't be beat. Would recommend to family and friends. Purchased from Good Guys online for $143 in July 2019 (+$10 delivery).

We are very happy with this microwave. You can heat things up using one-touch 30 second timer or hit the + sign for ten seconds more. Makes a lovely music sound when your item is finished heating up, which is better than hearing a bell or a loud DING like from most microwaves. Its very stylish, and has an easy to open front door, and its very easy to clean. Highly recommend.

The microwave is a fairly good appliance, the food generally maintains original texture And it does cook food evenly most of the time (pasta needs some stirring etc) but I find that the microwave heat doesn’t match what things say on packets. Like if a pie says ready in 3.5 minutes it never is!
I normally just find myself pressing the start button and using the standard setting, which I guess could be why things don’t cook in the right time sometimes.
The washing machine type jingle is also worth every cent I paid for it!

Great little 23L microwave.. does what I need it to do. Easy programming, re-heats really evenly and defrosts evenly without cooking the edges. It looks quite smart in the kitchen too..

For a microwave that is 1000w I thought it would heat food better/quicker/evenly.
We’ve had this microwave for over a little over a year and it blew up last week while I was cooking part of our dinner.
One feature I did like was it doesn’t have a loud ding when it’s finished heating food, it has a little musical tune which is good if you’ve got a sleeping child near by.

Happy with this microwave and believe that it was worth the price paid, which was about 150 dollars or so - not bad for a microwave outside of Kmart and Target, etc. The little jingle is kind of funny and I don't really mind that you can't put in an absolutely exact time because ten second increments are precise enough for me. Would recommend.

Purchased this microwave in August and unfortunately it did not last more than 6 weeks!!! I loved the design of the microwave and ease of use. The microwave cooked evenly and the texture of the food was good. Features that the microwave had were great and I was looking forward to using all the features over time. I was so disappointed when the microwave blew up after 6 weeks of use. Took it to the LG service centre and it could not be repaired.

This unit is a perfect size when you don't need something huge but still want the ability to do the basics as well as cook a few things. It doesn't take long to master the controls, it's easy to clean, and it looks nice in the kitchen for those who love aesthetics. It's also quite affordable/well priced for what you get, standard warranty, and appears reviews mostly agree, which is always reassuring. Purchased from The Good Guys (Adelaide SA).

Good affordable microwave, large microwave plate. Buttons are basic and minimal but does everything needed of a microwave. Place a happy tune at time which is unique. Looks nice and easy to clean.

Good microwave. Good size for small kitchen space. Very nice and stylish to look at and very easy to use. Nice , compact and affordable microwave and works very well. Recommend

excellent jet-black kind of finish,doesn't create any weird odor, heats fast, like the alarm that reminds to take the food out. it's extremely quiet, perfect size. easy touch buttons. very user friendly.
