Not Reliable and Not Durable

The LG LMV1831SS microwave I have was manufactured in 12/2021 and is 2 years and 10 months old as of this review. At less 1 year old the display began to flicker. This has gradually grown worse and is now at the point where all digits flicker rapidly. The microwave will still function but it is unsightly and clumsy to use for timer functions etc. After looking at this microwave a repairman stated that he could not get parts for this unit for that bit of information I was out 200 dollars.
The only way that I believe LG can make this situation right is to replace it with an equivalent unit free of charge to me including installation labor.
Right now I would never recommend an LG brand of appliance to anyone. I would have left a 0-star review but that option was not available.
I doubt that anyone from LG will reply but this review includes my email.

Purchased the microwave stove and fridge. The microwave display has not worked correctly since day one. The numbers for the clock just make circles. Now part of the display doesnt work. Complete garbage. The stove has had issues since day one. You cant use the oven with the timer because it just turns off randomly. Service guy said it is an issue with the main control board. He said he only gets used boards so if he replaced it we might have other issues. LG said we should just buy a timer and not use that feature. Never buying LG garbage again.

After about 1.2 years the clock on my microwave started flickering. Its getting progressively worse the numbers are less visible. My stove has the same issue. They need to improve the digital clock display. I would not recommend an LG appliances.

We purchased our microwave 1 year ago. It has worked great since day one. However 9 months in the digits showing time would flicker constantly in the background So it was noticeable but faint. I called for warranty service and they were very quick and helpful They tried trouble shooting with me but in th end needed to schedule a service call. He cam and replaced the panel within 15 minutes at no charge and now all is good. I like the product the company and its service organization.

Before the warranty was up it had to be fixed. Now it is a little over 2 years old and it doesnt work at all. The first thing that was repaired under warranty is happening again and it doesnt heat anything. I have been waiting for weeks to get LG to send a repairman in case it is the magnetron. I am extremely disappointed.

Poorly Made
Scott Murray

The long piece above the door is attached to the microwave by cheap plastic. Heat from the stove ruins the connection which makes the long piece come off. After paying for a replacement part because the warranty had just ended the replacement part also broke off. Im using makeshift parts from local hardware store to keep it together.

Made cheaply
Scott Murray
11/12/2023
The microwave functions good. The issue with this product is the piece directly above the door connects to the microwave using cheaply made plastic connectors that are screwed in. Those pieces break due to heat and because they are plastic. I replaced the piece as it was just one year originally buying the microwave and the warranty didnt apply. The replacement piece also broke within a month. I would not purchase this particular microwave this is your warning.

I would give this unit a zero if I could. It is cheaply constructed and didnt last a year. Unfortunately for me due to renovation it was two months old prior to install so out of warranty.. NEVER AGAIN.

LED Display Fails
Mark Stri

I bought this microwave approximately 1 1/2 years ago and the LED Display has failed twice. 1st it was fixed under the warranty and now LG refuses to replace w/o charging me for parts and labor. The microwave itself works fine its just the display continues to fail.

We had a LG microwave before and it went out before 2 years. We are trying another one and it seems like this is an updated version of our last one. It is an under the cabinet model and the inside seems lower then the other one which makes it easier to reach inside. Also the ending tone is much quieter and the lights seem brighter. Weve only had it for 2 days so havent used many features but these stood out. Great Job LG

I choose this microwave for the name. I thought spending a bit more and getting a name brand Ive heard of would be a good idea. I thought it would last me a while. Where are the days of microwaves lasting 5 or 10 years? I called LG and no one was of any help?

Solid microwave but the display goes wacky

I bought this August 2021 and it had display flickering for a while but I thought it was my eyesight. I finally started taking videos with my phone and checking them and yes indeed the display goes wacky every now and then. Other than that it works great.

Display flickers with no easy $ repair

The display CONSTANTLY flickers with no easy $ repair: The circuit board needs replacing when the light flickers--and it WILL flicker eventually I hope that this issue is not present on my next LG Microwave.

Mocrowaves OK but the panel is hard to read
Rich Durkee

If you dont have a light on in the kitchen you cant see the panel. It is not back-lit. Also the panel is stiff and so it is difficult to set a time of use any other function without really pressing hard.

The microwave is attractive and well built with easy cleaning. We use this several times a day so it gets a workout.
The only problem we had was it just stopped working. After a call to LG a tech appointment was made quickly and easily. The tech we had was here in just 2days and right on time.
He came in and had it figured out in just a few minutes went out to his van came back with the part and was back up and running again. Very professional and neat.

Easy to use and clean

I like the printless stainless steel finish which matches our frig and dishwasher. The user panel is not on the door which I prefer. It is easy to operate if you have ever used a microwave before. The inside is easy to clean but is brown not white. We prefer white but brown is ok. The damper assy is rather flimsy and the installer had a difficult time installing it. I am still not sure the damper is opening like it should.. other than the damper it is working great.
