LG - NeoChef 2.0 Cu. Ft. Countertop Microwave with Sensor Cooking and EasyClean - Stainless Steel

I thoroughly am enjoying this microwave. Aside from its outstanding design and appearance on the outside, it is very spacious and powerful on the inside. Now that I’ve gotten a taste for the smart cooking sensor, I’ll never buy another microwave without it. I do recommend not using a lid to cover your food when utilizing the sensory cooking. The sensor works by measuring the steam coming off your plate of food as it starts to heat up. It then adjust the temperature and time amount accordingly to ensure you have the perfect balance of heat the moment you grab your plate from the microwave, ensuring you don’t burn yourself. With a lid covering the foods I’ve noticed that the accuracy gets thrown off by the lid trapping a lot of the steam. Other than that, great product.

Got this a little while ago and I have to say its performance is very good. Heat's very evenly and quickly but it's a very big microwave oven (at least compared to my old one). Takes up quite a bit of counter space and didn't realize just how much until I brought it home but the interior is huge. An 18 x 14 in tray almost fits inside lengthwise, and I have a feeling a large pizza box will fit as well. The touch pad is not as quick as my old one so you do have to wait just a tad to tap in the next number but since it's got 30 second interval one touch starts, it's not a big deal. Won't say the sensor cook and sensor reheat is a gimmick because it does work and it does exactly what it says it does. The problem is, you really have to know the exact weight of the item you want to heat up. Seriously, how many of us really know the exact weight of a leftover meal? I used it several times just to test it out but in day to day life, I don't use it. The only real complaint I have (and it's a minor one) is that the door is very loud when you close it. When it's heating something, it's very quiet and there's a really fun melody letting you know when it's done. After you take the food out and close the door, you really can't close it quietly. Believe me, I've tried but it's just not possible (work on that issue on the next model, LG). Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend this, though you may want the smaller one if your countertop space is limited. Hope this helped!

Our JennAir microwave went out and I wanted something nice without being expensive. And this did the trick. This one is much, much bigger. A little overkill on size, but will definitely come in handy during the holiday's. Looks great in the kitchen. And has a cute little tune when your food is finished cooking. Super easy to use. I love the fact i can type in the time without having to push a "time cook" button before hand. Also has a quick 30 second cook time button too. Wouldve loved to have had the dark stainless steel colorway, but didn't think it was worth the price difference. Best Buy had the better pricing compared to the "home improvement" store and it was available the same day. I did opt for the Best Buy protection plan for four years since it wasn't very much. And with the luck of the (new) Jenn Air appliances we have, I didn't want to take a chance. I'm sure we will have better luck with the LG.
