Sharp R-1520LK Over The Range Microwave Review

We had the lower model of R-1520 and we really liked it. Because of an accident we had to replace it (I didn't do it. I wasn't even home). We have a certain look in our kitchen and we like a microwave that has the control panel hidden. (Most controls look cheap and flimsy.) Although this model is not the highest rated out there it still does everything we need it to do. All I can see that it's missing is a center rack so you can place two items inside at once. I installed it by myself and found the instructions to be easy to understand and the installation simple. It is a bit heavy so you may need some help lifting it. My doctor says I should regain full use of my legs when my back is out of traction. (Just kidding.) If you are looking for a good-looking, well built, easy to operate, nice featured, easy to install microwave I say this is a good choice.

Maytag : Over-The-Range Microwave Oven Review

I purchased this microwave just over a month ago from one of the larger home improvement stores.My condo is smallish, so I decided to go with this less expensive model.It worked fine the first few times I used it, but after running it for more than 4 minutes at a time, it would shut off completely.The display would not even light up.The power would eventually return after about a half hour or so.

As it is still covered under the manufacturer's warranty, I was able to arrange for free service through Maytag's website.The technician just left and told me that the problem was "poor design."Apparently, there isn't enough cooling for some of the internal parts when the microwave is being run for more than a few minutes.To remedy the situation, he suggested that whenever I had the oven on for an "extended" amount of time, I should turn the vent fan on high so that the internal parts can remain cool.The technician said that this was a problem with many brands of over the range microwaves in this price range including LG, Kenmore, etc.He did say that GE was likely the best brand to buy.

As I spent a significant amount of money and effort between the initial purchase and having it installed, I will keep the oven and just remember to run it with the vent fan on.It works fine otherwise.

Update: 1 Year Later

After the initial service call, the original problem of the microwave overheating and shutting off after about 4 minutes of use continued regardless of whether or not the fan was turned on.

Just before the 1 year warranty expired, I decided to try and have it serviced one more time.The service person determined that the problem was improper installation.I helped him pull down the microwave and then he was able to move the fan housing cover into the proper position for external venting, the instructions of which were actually printed on a sticker right next to the housing cover.Go figure!

I'm upgrading my rating on this because the microwave oven has been working perfectly since then.I can recommend it without reservation, but just make sure it's installed correctly.

Frigidaire FMV152KB - Black 1.5 Cu. Ft. Over The Range Microwave - 1000 Watt, Side Controls-Gallery Mono Group Review

We bought a combo set:microwave, stove top, oven, and refrigerator.The stove and oven work fine, but the microwave went out only after a little over a year of usage.We payed a couple hundred dollars for the microwave and it went out!!I've bought cheap microwaves that do the job almost as good that have lasted more than 8 years!!

On another note I would not buy their refrigerator freezer side by side because the refrigerator part does not keep your food cold.If you have a "good" refrigerator and you turn up the fridge part it normally makes your water and milk turn to icicles.But this one did not.I turned up both of them and the freezer was really cold, but the fridge part did not seem colder, very bad!

GE : JVM1540DNWW Microwave Review

Bought microwave 3.5 yrs ago.Recently the Microwave started reseting after running for 2 seconds.The first really annoying part is that you have to reset the time and date to get the microwave to function again (I hate this!!!) You cannot use until time and date are set.

Found out that RF(Radio Frequency) Mag tube inside of microwave is leaking and the RF is reseting the circuit board causing the microwave to reset.

The cost to repair is greater than the amount to buy another one.GE should make a better product.

Purchased the unit for around $200 so you do the math as to how much it cost per year to use.I will not buy another GE Microwave These things should last longer than a few years.

GE : JVM1540LNCS Microwave Review

The product arrived perfectly shipped and timely, no complaints.The microwave itself is very nice, I like the strengths of the fan and the light for the over the stove use.The only problem I had was the instructions were really vague on mounting the back panel.It's really difficult to do the measurements and get the unit to line up correctly, and if you're like me, installing into mostly sheetrock, you can't really go back and correct a hole by a quarter of an inch without repairing the old hole and trying again.Quite frustrating, and confusing, because the instructions for aligning the top were perfect.I just put the layout up, marked and cut my holes, no problem.I highly recommend getting a piece of cardboard and making screw holes first, as a template before you install.My final project ended up tilting slightly downward, but not enough to make the unit unusable or unsafe.The product, packaging, and shipping all get five stars, but the vague (and important!) instructions, maybe a three.

Also, MAKE SURE you have at least one stud above your oven before you install.It doesn't matter where, and two are actually recommended, but with the three supporting bolts at the top, and the mounting bracket attached to at least one stud, I had no problems.

It's a great price, but take your time installing!Good luck!

GE JVM1540DNBB SpacemakerR Over-the-Range Microwave Oven Review

Extra inches were added to newly rounded door for no good reason leaving less space between the bottom of the microwave and the top of the stove.This makes it difficult to maneuver tall pots and pans or to use a long spoon for stirring.This is potentially hazardous to the cook which in my opinion is a safety concern. GE needs to return to the earlier straight-edge design.

Whirlpool : WMH1162XVD 30in 1.6 cu. ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven Stainless Steel Review

We purchased a new home several months ago and upgraded to a Whirlpool stainless steel appliance package and this microwave came in the set. I love the stainless steel and I think it really adds a lot to the appearance of our home. Not to mention that it's a lot easier to clean but you do have to clean it more often because every little fingerprint shows. You can clean it with any type of cleaner that's non-abrasive but stainless steel cleaner really works the best in my opinion. It has lots of options like quick select buttons for common foods like popcorn, pizza, baked potato, frozen entree and beverages. It also has a temperature holding option that comes in handy to keep food warm while you finish cooking other food. It cooks really fast so we always have to cook for less time than what the instructions say.The hood also has a three-speed fan that is very powerful, a light with three different settings and it gives you the option to turn on or off the turntable.I am very pleased with the microwave and look forward to using it for many years to come.

LG LMV1680ST SS 1.6 cu. ft. stainless-steel over-the-range microwave Review

I bought this for my new kitchen renovation.I was getting rid of the huge vent above the stove and wanted a nice place for a microwave that would vent.You can use it to vent up and out, or it can recycle the air and let it flow back in the room.I'm using it for the latter.The fan is very loud, I find, but not so bad that I wouldn't use it.The microwave is nice and has a lot of nice features on it like quick start (also known as Add 30 Seconds).I would recommend it.You probably won't find a better one for a price like this.

The unit features 10 power levels, auto and rapid defrost, auto reheat, add 30 seconds, and more/less control, as well as hold warm for keeping food warm until it's ready to serve and a low-wattage melt/soften setting for making hard butter soft or for melting chocolate without boiling or scorching. In addition, the microwave oven comes equipped with a two-speed 300-CFM (cubic foot per minute) exhaust system with a hidden vent for reduced smoke and food odors caused by cooking.

Electrolux : EI30MH55GS 30in Over-the-Range Microwave Oven - Stainless Steel Review

The gun in our 1400 watt GE over-the-range microwave gave out after just 3 1/2 years of use. SO, we decided to shell out the big bucks to buy this Electrolux. (It matches our new Electrolux range, which we actually love).

The problem is that there is no turn table in this unit and the "cook-2-perfection technology" is, in a word, *PITIFUL*! The way it cooks reminds me of the $100 units you give your kids to take to college.

Breakfast sandwiches (from the freezer) burn in the center and are still cold on at least one edge. Two hot dogs for one minute wrapped in a paper towel were nearly burnt on one end and just warm on the other.

I tried the "sensor cook" for a mini-bag of popcorn and it shut off after about 10 kernels popped! The "sensor cook" settings appear to be trainable so I think I can add more (or less) time, but it's not clear to me from the manual if the microwave remembers those, or if I have to add more time every time I use the "sensor cook" buttons. (If it can't remember the tweaks, what good is it?)

Electrolux must use this manual for a different microwave oven too, because it constantly references the turntable that I only wish it had.

We're *extremely* disappointed and I wish I could send it back. I guess I'll have to go find a 3rd party turntable, or cook everything on 60% power. Oh, and just so you know, "Electrolux is not responsible for any damage to the oven when accessories are used". Does that mean that aturntable invalidates the "FULL ONE YEAR WARRANTY"?

Note: This was purchased locally and with installation, not from Amazon.If you're handy, and have help, installation is typical of over-the-range microwaves. ["Made in USA from domestic and imported parts". January 2008?]

UPDATE: 1/28/2009
I called Electrolux to complain about how badly this microwave worked. (Invoking the one year warranty). They attempted to tell me that I needed to use the rack for cooking popcorn. (I could hear them quickly flipping through the user's manual). After I pointed out to them that page 17 of their manual specifically says "do not use the rack unless you are cooking multiple dishes" they sent a repair man.

Well, there are two rotating discs under the floor of the microwave, (supposedly to scatter the beam) and they were both rotating. It boiled a cup of water within 3 minutes. The company rep said that I might have better luck if I elevated food a couple of inches off of the bottom. But, the overall conclusion was: Works as expected. (Gee, thanks).

I tried a micro-go-round. It helped, a little. Very annoying to use however.

Finally, after 3 short months, sick of my food ending up both burned and frozen at the same time, I JUNKED the Electrolux and bought another GE. (Pssst - the repair guy said not to buy anything but GE! We also bought the extended warranty - not that it would have helped with the Electrolux!)

My conclusion: Electrolux microwaves are junk - a total waste of money. And, Electrolux was ABSOLUTELY NO HELP in resolving this problem. (Do you think I'll ever buy anything from them again?)

Sharp R-1514 1-1/2-Cubic-Foot 1000-Watt Over-the-Range Microwave, Stainless Review

It may look pretty, but as an over the range microwave oven it provides nothing but headaches. Even a modest amount of heat from the cook top below causes the microwave oven's pushbutton door latch to deform (melt?) because Sharp chose to save money with plastic rather than metal interior parts. Thus, either the door won't close or one has to pry the latch open each time. The service technician who replaced the assembly (twice) said he had performed almost a dozen similar replacements in the recent past.

My advice, buy it only if you never plan to use the cook top below.

GE JVM1740DMBB 1.7CF Over-the-Range Microwave 1000W Black Review

About 6 months ago, we upgraded from an ancient GE spacemaker - might have been 10 years old.So anything was going to be better.I wanted one that had a revolving turntable to spin the food and I wanted a stronger microwave.This one delivers. But Please - take my advice and don't try all the silly "auto sensor" features.Use manual choices and you can't go wrong. If you are upgrading from a lower watt microwave, be sure to adjust and lower your "usual" cook times.I burned popcorn and Weight Watcher Smart Ones meals at first so I speak from experience.My husband has yet to understand this concept and still burns food!

I have the black color instead of the bisque which I think looks nicer and is relatively easy to keep clean.However, I wish I had stuck with bisque color instead of getting black finish for our stove and dishwasher though because keeping those clean is MUCH MORE DIFFICULT.

I like that there is two optional racks for those holiday family meals when we're heating up multiple large items.

LG Over The Range Microwaves Review

I recently upgraded from a GE Spacemaker XL with the purchase of an LG over-the-range microwave - 2 cubic ft., black, item number: LMV208SB.

the Good
- attractive to look at, matches my kitchen decor perfectly
- large LCD display is easy to see and read
- includes many advanced and basic settings
- has an "EZ-ON" feature which allows you to start cooking instantly with the press of this button
- has dedicated buttons for popcorn and hot dogs
- door opens on its own, there isn't another button that you need to press like on other microwaves for the door
- the price was exceptional and with Amazn's free shipping I defy anyone to find another retailer that can match their price
- comes with a 1-year warranty and if LG is anything like GE (I have no idea) they won't bat an eye if you call them for service even when the appliance is a few years old
- More/Less Arrows allow you to subtract or add time while the microwave is in operation
- tells you when to turn over food, when you're defrosting
- extra large cooking capacity, and with the wrack it nearly doubles in size
- 1100 watts of power

the Bad
- it is incredibly heavy and bulky (nearly 70 pounds), have at least 2 strong men who can lift it when you install it
- the door makes a loud clunking sound when it closes
- there isn't a "quick cook" button like GE had, the closest this has is EZ-On, however that automatically defaults to 30 seconds
- the unit doesn't constantly keep beeping to remind you that your food is ready
- sometimes foods tend to get slightly soggy when taken off the "hold warm" setting
- the rotation cannot be turned off if it is set to keep warm
- it's doing a number on my plastic dishes that are microwave safe, they're slightly bending, however since they're so inexpensive I do not mind too much

the Ugly
- it is a beast to clean/keep clean
- it is a fingerprint/dust magnet
- picks up streaks very quickly
- it can pick up scratches very, very easily

the Exceptional
- the Soften button allows you to soften butter, ice-cream, cream cheese and even frozen juice
- with the cooking sensors the microwave cooks everything to the perfect temp and then shuts off automatically, this is great for TV dinners
- with the Reheat button you can quickly heat up anything and the microwave will bring it to the perfect temp without any effort on your part
- dedicated defrost settings for vegetables, beef and chicken
- with the Hold Warm button I can now leave whatever I was cooking in it for up to 90 minutes and it will stay nice and hot, this'll save on power because I won't have to turn on the oven for this
- able to automatically turn on the Hold Warm feature to follow another cooking function
- EZ-On feature can be extended in 30 minute increments just by pressing it
- Custom Cook can be programmed to cook any single time you use the most often (my only complaint about this is you still need to press the Start/Enter button)

Things to Remember
- never use a brillo pad or abrasive sponge on this as it could scratch very easily
- although I don't know why you would want to, never turn the microwave oven on if nothing is inside it
- sometimes it makes slight crackling sounds as it's cooking, these are normal

If anyone has any suggestions on how to keep this looking perfect and nice and shiny and glossy please let me know. Right now I am using Mr. Clean Power Wipes on the outside, then I gently buff it with a dry paper towel to buff and shine it. But it's not very practical because it's a lot of work and lint, dust and fingerprints still seem to find a way all over the microwave no matter what I do or don't do.

**Update** I recently started using Fantastic Clean & Shine spray with a microfiber towel (on the outside door and on the inside-after I clean the inside with a sponge, as well) and it works very well. So far, this is the best product that I have found to keep it looking shiny and new (the outside mostly). Keep in mind there are different varieties of Fantastic Cleaner, you're going to want to get "Fantastic Clean & Shine" spray.

Overall this is a very useful item and one of the most used new appliances that I have purchased for my kitchen in ages.
