    Overview

    LG’s NeoChef 42L Smart Inverter Microwave Oven is packed with innovative features designed to add more convenience to your life and to get the best cooking results. The Smart Inverter motor varies the power delivered during cooking for excellent, energy-saving results.

    The spacious 42L interior provides plenty of room for larger dishes. Boasting 28 auto-cook menus, with this one appliance you can warm, defrost and cook. Precise temperature controls are in place to ensure even defrosting of your frozen foods.

    An anti-bacterial coating in the interior eliminates 99.9% of harmful bacteria from the surface, and makes cleaning easy. Plus, the hexagonal ring design of the turntable ensures it remains stable. Finished in black stainless steel, this microwave offers a modern, stylish appearance.
    Inverter Heating

    While a typical microwave simulates a lower power level by switching the maximum power on and off again, an inverter microwave such as this one provides a constant flow of energy at the selected power level, a bit like a gas burner on half heat. This helps to ensure that your food is evenly and consistently heated, for more delicious results.

    LED Lighting

    Modern LED lighting runs efficiently, providing bright, even illumination, and allows you to easily keep an eye on the cooking progress.

    Anti-bacterial Coating

    Improves hygiene within the microwave by eliminating 99.9% of harmful bacteria from the interior’s surface. The coating also makes cleaning a breeze. Just a few wipes are all it takes to keep it clean.

    Auto cooking menus

    Choose from a range of multiple automatic cooking settings, including selections for bacon, jacket potatoes, fresh vegetables, and yogurt proofing.

    LG microwave
    I had an LG microwave for 15 years, when it stopped working I decided to buy another LG microwave. So far so good. I have several LG appliances in my home, never disappoint.

    Works Well but Frustrating to Use
    As far as I can tell after a couple of weeks the microwave performs well in terms of heating/cooking. However it is not intuitive to use and often requires quite a few button presses to accomplish simple settings. The control and finish tones are loud and annoying. Suspect it is a good product let down by poor user interface.

    Questions & answers

    Hi - can this unit be built in with a kit. I am considering it together with a double oven in one line and want it to look seamless. The other option I'm looking at is a single oven with a microwave combination oven in one line. The look is important. Kerrie · 2021-05-26
    Hi Kerrie, Thank you for your question. Please call us on 1300 000 500 and one of our customer service representatives can help you with your request. Kind Regards, Appliances Online matilda.carr, Appliances Online
    Hi will this work on a cabinet of480mm deep or does it need more air circulation? Mich · 2020-10-12
    Hi there, Thank you for your question. For safe ventilation you must ensure there is at least 15 cm of space on the top and 10 cm at the left & right and 5 cm at the rear. The front of the oven should be at least 8 cm from the edge of the surface to prevent tipping. Kind Regards, Appliances Online Milly, Appliances Online
