    With versatile cooking options, you can warm, defrost, and cook effortlessly. This powerful 1200W microwave delivers fast cooking results, complemented by the versatility of Inverter technology. Whether you’re delicately proofing yoghurt, thawing steak, or popping popcorn, the Inverter enables a more even distribution of heat throughout foods with more precise temperature control. Cleaning the interior is easy thanks to the anti-bacterial EasyClean coating. Just a few quick wipes will have the walls new again.

    Elegantly designed with minimalism in mind, the tempered glass and touch controls create a modern, stylish appearance.
    Anti-bacterial EasyClean interior

    The interior is built with an anti-bacterial EasyClean interior. This coating makes cleaning the interior quick and easy, just a few wipes is all it takes to have it looking new again. The coating eliminates a range of harmful bacteria from the surface for a more hygienic environment.

    Stable turntable

    The turntable’s unique hexagonal ring design is stabilised with six support points. This helps prevent off-centre items from tipping and spilling during cooking.

    Inverter technology

    Rather than traditional methods, Inverter technology precisely controls the power output for more desirable heating levels. This helps avoid overcooked and unthawed areas, promoting better distribution of heat for a better end result.

    Bright internal lighting

    The interior white LED lamp in the microwave oven is three times brighter and more energy-efficient than outdated incandescent lights. Keep an eye on your cooking progress at all times and enjoy your dishes how you want them.

    Microwave oven MS5696OMBS
    I have to say it's been the best one I've had so far. The size is perfect for my needs and the operation is incredibly easy. But what really sets this microwave oven apart is its cooking performance. The food heats up evenly and quickly, and the preset cooking options are very useful. I also appreciate the quality of its construction - it feels sturdy and durable. However, I did encounter a minor issue with the control panel, it's in a process of getting repaired by LG. Overall though, I'm very satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend this microwave oven to anyone in the market for a reliable and easy-to-use appliance.

    Worst microwave followed by poor customer service
    We purchased this microwave 3 months ago. Microwave stopped working. Contacted LG and sent all the model and serial number details, after the microwave stopped working. A couple of days later, no response. Followed up with an email, and a prompt apology for the delay. Another week and no further response. We should have stuck with the ever reliable Panasonic.

    Questions & answers

    What is an inverter microwave please Kaaren · 2024-01-28
    Hello< An inverter microwave is a type of microwave oven that utilizes inverter technology to control the power output and cooking intensity more precisely than traditional microwave ovens. Unlike conventional microwaves, which cycle on and off at full power to achieve lower cooking levels, inverter microwaves can vary the power level continuously. This enables them to provide more even and consistent cooking results, particularly when it comes to delicate tasks like reheating leftovers or defrosting. Inverter microwaves are known for their ability to maintain a constant, lower power level for longer periods, which can help prevent overcooking or overheating certain foods. This technology makes them a popular choice for those seeking improved cooking control and versatility in their microwave appliances.
