Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Sleek modern design

MVEM1721F 11/28/2024

New home came with this unit and I have to say these OTRs have come a long way. Quieter and so simple to use. Looks great and very modern.

Terrible Service

Tom OB 11/14/2024

3 month old over range microwave went completely dark. Called LG for service under warrantee. Tech arrived w bad attitude. He Ordered 3 parts and told us to call back when received. I have made 3 calls within past week attempting to schedule tech back to complete. Still not scheduled. All Cust serv agents said they would call us back within a day or 2. No calls back. Terrible service. Continuing to call for Tech to return. Complete waste of my time.

Microwave oven review

SRHHDD 10/16/2024

Clean sleek looking. Has worked great so far. The only thing I had to figure out and didnt like at first was that if you put something in the microwave and let it sit for I think its longer then 3 Minutes it wont start again unless you open and close the door. Might be a new safety thing Im not sure.

great features not great service

gary63 10/13/2024

I bought this unit 6 months ago and overall am very pleased with it. The interior LED light went out within 3 months of purchase. The warranty repair process was nothing short of a complete farce. Totally unacceptable. Finally got it repaired after over 2 months.

VERY POORLY DESIGNED

John Reno 9/10/2024

3 Months an interior light does not work. Cannot just change the bulbits an LED light with a board that must be ordered and replaced by a Tech. Very poor design. Panel display is very hard to read. Will never by again. Still waiting 3 weeks for them to come fix the light.

Lighting is poor to terrible.

Frustrated123u 9/6/2024

Under cabinet light is pretty dim. After less than 1 month. The non-replacable interior LED whose idea was that is so dim you have to stare directly at it to even know it still has some power going to it. Completely useless at this point. The microwave seems to heat food like you would expect a microwave to.

MVEM1721F Over Range Microwave

Dee_Cee 9/4/2024

3 major things cost a review negative star. The LG Thin Q APP is not supported and display buttons require a hard press to work. Another negative is this unit did not include the free 2nd year warranty.. Majority of retailers advertising LG free 2nd year warranty but this model is not on fine print list that is included. Pro: Cooks evenly and quick quiet bright under light powerful exhaust fan looks nice door latches tight and smooth soft music instead of Beep Cons: inside light is dim buttons have to press hard finger prints very noticeable on pad wall template good-under cabinet template was wrong when installing NOT COMPATIBLE with LG Thin Q app grease filters vibrate loose and fall out

NEVER order from LG. Overpromise and underdeliver.

muttdog497 8/26/2024

Cant really review the product because it is now 11 days past the promised delivery date and we are still waiting for our microwave to arrive. I called last week to discuss and it was explained to me that LG uses another company to manage their product delivery. I checked tracking and it was sitting at their delivery companys warehouse not 1 hour from here. I offered to make the drive myself and was told in order to do that approvals had to be obtained and that could take several business days. Were talking a microwave oven. It boiled down to the fact that they only come to our area on certain days. In other words youll get it when it is most convenient for us no matter what we promised. They certainly charged my card promptly. Do yourself a favor and just go to a big box store. Personally I have bought my last LG product and I dont care if it is the best microwave ever.

Ray2024 7/30/2024

Our new 1.7 cuft is a little smaller than our older LG. We merely a newer microwave in stainless steel. This one is quieter in all regards and works perfectly. We love our new LG products.

great value

stikkmann 4/30/2024

Have owned this microwave a little less than one month no problems simple to use. Would be nice if the various manufacturers would standardize the wall mount/cabinet mounting brackets and layout for keeping the location of the holes drilled thru the underside of the cabinet in the same location. I have installed 3 different microwaves in the same location - the underside of my upper cabinet is staring to look like Swiss cheese
