Product Review

Professional design, professional cooking: The LG LMHM2017 Microwave Ovens. The microwave was one of the greatest inventions of all time, providing a faster way to cook a meal or heat up a dish. But what if you just need to keep a dish warm without overcooking it? This Over the Range Microwave with Extended Vent comes with a warming lamp so you can keep food warm and ready to serve for up to 90-minute. Catch the Smoke: Over the Range microwaves have always been great at capturing the smoke from the back burners of your stovetop, but not the front burners. LG introduces the Extended Vent, which covers the entire cooking surface allowing for even greater ventilation. Warming Lamp: LG revolutionizes microwave cooking with the introduction of the first Warming Lamp. The warming lamp uses a radiant heating element to keep food warm, as opposed to microwaves or a hot bulb. Keep Quiet: With an Over the Range Microwave Oven, strong ventilation is key. That's why LG has created the Quiet Power vent, which does the job quietly, without interrupting your life. Sensor Cooking: Eliminate the guesswork in cooking. Humidity-sensing technology determines when food is cooked and automatically turns off the microwave to prevent the over- or under-cooking of meals. Monitor Design: Moving the controls to the bottom of this microwave oven gives it a unique look suitable for your design sensibilities. Look like a pro: This microwave will help you cook the perfect meal every time and match your design sensibilities. Our Professional Design features ease of accessibility and a pro-style, asymmetrical design.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional Microwave, May 25, 2011

This review is from: LG OTR 2.0 CF 1100-Watt Microwave, White (Kitchen)
Bought this based on Consumer Reports' recommendations, installed and have been using this microwave for about 5 months. So far, the microwave has been exceptional in every single way.

PROS -

Heating - uniform and quick, just like you would expect.

Defrost - we defrosted cheese from the freezer, which usually crystallizes, and have to say, it came out pretty good. Not as good as if you just bought it, but much better than any other microwave defrosting that we've ever seen.

Ventilation - the pull out vent seemed like a gimmick, but that extra half a foot seems to make a big difference as it literally pulls the smoke away from the oven's front burners. A very nice feature.

Controls - pretty straightforward, although the more advanced features are something that we will have to get used to.

Light - this microwave has two lights on either side of the stove rather than one light with two bulbs in the middle. The lights...Read more

This review is from: LG OTR 2.0 CF 1100-Watt Microwave, Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
I originally picked this microwave because it had all the features I was looking for; powerful vent fan, multiple cooktop lights with dual level selection, extend-a-vent, and more. I almost didn't buy it because none of the product literature available, even on the LG website indicated that the unit could be externally vented. I finally had to do a random search for the installation guide for this model and found a third party website that collects this type of literature. There in the installation manual were instructions for roof, or through the wall venting.
Separately, I searched LG's website and found where others had asked the same question. I found several places that people were told units could not be vented to the exterior, when a search of install manuals indicated they could. I even challenged them on this model as they stated it could not, and was given their list of external vent models, this one not included. I am happy to say that it is installed in my kitchen,...Read more

I purchased this unit a little over 30 days ago. I had it running for 3 weeks. One night, I was baking some potatoes in it and it shut off, never to come back to life again. I followed the regular troubleshooting as defined in the manuals. No luck.

I purchased the unit based on the 10 year warranty LG offers on this product. Little did I know that getting the warranty service would be a challenge. I called LG's service provider and they told me that I was not in their region and couldn't service the unit (I live about 20 miles from their location). From the questioning I got, I could tell that they were not interested in providing any service once they understood that this would be an LG service job, they backed away. I've received feedback similar to this from some of my friends about appliance service companys doing this.

Stay away from LG product in general as they can't provide the warranty they say that they will. Thankfully, I purchased this thru...Read more
