Wifi setup took about 20 minutes. Must use SMARTHQ app to connect to wifi and then go through another setup process for alexa to discover. We use the microwave mostly to reheat leftovers and it works very well for that. I've preloaded the microwave and used basic voice commands to heat food while preparing meals; fun. Plug is 90 degrees which is nice for our builtin cabinet; its larger inside than the 10 year old appliance it replaced; and I like the larger display. We choose this microwave because it has a smaller footprint in comparison to other wifi/smart microwaves. My only negative is the smartHQ app; I dont need a notification on my phone everytime the microwave is done; and it would be nice if alexa could do its job when connecting to wifi, etc.
