Overview
A sensor cook system and the ExtendaVent fan setup do the heavy lifting in this LG over-the-range microwave, which mounts above a cooktop. Touch controls run auto cook presets, auto defrost and Scan-to-Cook through ThinQ, behind a PrintProof stainless steel front.
Smart cooking features are the reason to look here: sensor cooking, presets and barcode scanning through ThinQ cut most of the guesswork from reheating. The listing is thin and partly odd, with a width figure that does not read like a standard over-range opening, so check the installation sheet first.
Who it's for
Kitchens with a cooktop below an upper cabinet get a microwave and a vent in one unit. Shoppers who want a countertop model, or who cannot confirm the cabinet opening and wiring, should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Sensor Cook and auto cook presets
- Scan-to-Cook through ThinQ
- ExtendaVent 2.0 venting above the cooktop
- Large turntable for wide dishes
- Listed dimensions do not match a typical opening
- Listed voltage needs checking against your circuit
- Short one year warranty
- Vent airflow rating not listed
Performance notes
Cooking results depend on the sensor cook logic, which reads conditions inside the cavity and adjusts time instead of relying on a fixed timer. Venting depends on how the ExtendaVent ducting is set up, and the listing does not say whether it exhausts outside or recirculates.
