Our verdict

An over-the-range microwave with sensor cooking and app features for a kitchen that wants the counter clear. Vent airflow and warranty are missing from the specs, so confirm them before ordering.

Overview

Kitchens short on counter space get this LG microwave mounted above the range, where it also serves as the cooktop vent through ExtendaVent. Sensor Cooking and Scan-to-Cook set times for you, while ThinQ and LG Range Sync add app features.

Mounting above the stove frees counter space and adds a vent in the same footprint. Sensor and scan based programs cut down on guessing cook times. The seller copy says nothing useful, so the spec sheet is the only source.

Who it's for

Homes replacing an older over-the-range unit get a stainless microwave with sensor programs and app control. Kitchens that need strong smoke extraction, or that lack a wall cabinet over the stove, should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Frees counter space above the range
  • Sensor Cooking adjusts times automatically
  • Scan-to-Cook and ThinQ app support
  • Stainless steel interior
Cons
  • Vent airflow and warranty not listed
  • Few power levels listed
  • Seller description gives no detail
  • Needs a wall cabinet above the range

Performance notes

Over the range, venting depends on the duct or recirculation path chosen at install, and the listing gives no airflow rating to plan around. Sensor Cooking adjusts time from the food itself, so results improve when dishes are loosely covered. Cavity size and the stainless interior govern how evenly larger dishes heat.
