The microwave feels like it's solid and built well, cooks even and well. But it does lack a few features I loved and took for granted in the cheap LG that came with the house when it was built 13 years ago, like the hold warm feature, the ability to see the current power level being used by pressing the power level while it's in operation and the ability to dim the clock.. The interior is bright and easy to keep clean as is the exterior. The lighting inside and and out is bright and wonderful. I sure hope it lasts at least as long as the LG. It's a beautiful appliance.
