Awesome

Had a good deal at JB and decided to get this model. The inverter feature is good. Heats up food in a minute! The settings are easy to understand and the touch screen is easy to operate. The machine is not too loud. The built is also good. Highly recommended.

This oven is a great size and so simple to use and keep clean. The front is stylish and the easy start in 30 second increments is all I need to use. If I had to complain it would be the annoying ring tone when it finishes, but this seems to be the norm with many appliances.

Amazing!

Bought this microwave as our old one died. This microwave is fantastic!! So easy and basic to use. Very quiet and has a solid build. Love the fast heat button and how simple it is. Definitely worth the few extra dollars that was spent on purchasing it. Cannot fault this product

We love it for its quickness and how easy it is to use although different from our recently old microwave it fits in the home well it also didnt come with a microwave dish and lid so thats also a difference but all over we're happy with it so far

Great little microwave!

published

We recently got a new microwave as we moved house and this microwave is great! Makes a cute sound when it finishes and its super powerful you dont have to put food in for long as it heats it up very quick! Nice and compact too. Only negative is it wont fit a square plate as the microwave is too small.

Perfect microwave

published

I managed to fit in my cabinet which is a requirement for us. It has a cool beep when it finishes. The look is stylish and it suits my kitchen really well. It's super easy to use and it's hot enough. I make rice in it and heat food up so just the basics but it's good enough for me. It's not very loud but it takes some time to cool off after it finishes.

Great product! recommended

published

We bought this microwave 4 moths ago, it has always been very reliable. The microwave is very quite and sturdy, it has easy to use features that present well. It looks nice and I believe is one of the nicer looking microwaves around, sleek with most buttons hidden. Highly recommend this micorwave.

A good microwave

published

I selected this microwave for its one touch start and simple front, I didn't know it has a loud and persistent finished tone, that does not let up until you open the door! Function wise it works well, is simple to use and quite powerful, elderly people have trouble with the touch screen, no problem for us so far :)

I love this little gem

published

I wanted just a simple microwave, nothing fancy, no bells & whistles so after a brief look around I settled on this model & I couldn't be happier. Super quiet, super fast & oh so easy to use. This baby has alot more oomph than my last one, I love cooking in it.

Top microwave

published

My new LG microwave works just as I expected, it heats up quickly and evenly and it runs very quietly when heating. I love the stainless steel look and it blends in beautifully with my other stainless steel appliances. The menu options are easy to read and the controls are well titled and appointed.

Great Microwave - efficient

published

Replaced my 10 years old microwave with this little gem. Stylish looking. Have it for over 6 weeks, basic stuff, just warming food. Easy to use. Still learning on how to use all the functions... The finish "ding" is very soft that though musical, no way able to have it if I was out of the kitchen. Reasonable value for money. Hope it last.

Crap

published

Worst microwave I have ever owned. Sick of whinging to my wife about our old Panasonic being so much better, and her saying, just go and get another one. This weekend I will. Does not cook or heat food up quickly or evenly. It has taken 20 minutes tonight to cook sweet potato to mash up for dinner. Complete and utter waste of money. Never again!!

Not Satified with the cooking result

published

I am not satisfied with the cooking result, Using the provided time table and volumes etc. does not end up a well cooked or well heated foods. Most of the time, I have to re-start it with a new schedule to get the wanted result. In term of loudness is medium

Does what it is meant to

published

Replaced our old 1100W microwave with this LG NeoChef, over all good does the job pretty well. To reset clock during summer / winter change need to turn it off and on again and set clock which is something I had to figure out on my own. Sometimes after little use during summer it will want to cool itself and will start a fan that runs for about a minute till it cools down. That unwanted fan can be annoying at time.

Good product over all

Love it! Sleek design.

published

Use this for reheating food, so easy to use with even distribution of heat, no more random hot and cold spots!
Also easy to wipe clean on the inside with just 1 wet wipe.
Simple to use with the glass door touchscreen panel. Noise level if relatively low.
With the stainless steel finish, the unit seems sturdy and very well-built.

Love the modern, stylish appearance!

published

I'm attracted by the sleek minimalist design at the first sight, the design is so simple but stylish and modern, and it's so convenient that you can simple control the microwave on its door. It feels like you are using the touch-screen phones. The tempered glass door can be easily touch controlled and you can adjust the cooking period anytime to satisfy most general cooking aims. When you open the door, there are more different comprehensive cooking models to choose. It doesn't create much noise at all and the music is nice when it finishes working. The interior coating is anti-bacterial and super easy to clean, the 25L volume is big enough for every daily uses.

NeoChef MS2596

I bought my MS2596 26/12/2017 had few issues other than working out how to use different features. Have rarely used it to cook anything for more than 15 minutes on high mostly reheat. Noticed about 12 months ago that food would not heat as much on second heat application like a 5 minute application then the 2nd 5min heat application was noticeably lower in temp. Last night my 6 minute frozen meal was still very cold in centre after the cooking cycle what could be the problem because this machine has had little use. Thanks...John K
