The right microwave size depends on your household size, cooking habits, and available kitchen space. Microwave capacity is measured in litres (L), indicating how much food the microwave can hold. A compact microwave (up to 20L) is ideal for individuals or small kitchens, mainly for snacks and reheating. A standard microwave (21–27L) suits most couples and small families, suitable for everyday meals and medium-sized dishes. For larger households or frequent cooking, a family-size microwave (28–32L) is better for bigger dishes and batch cooking. Before choosing, make sure to measure your space and check the product dimensions for a proper fit.

The main difference is that a convection microwave uses a fan and heating element to bake and roast, while a standard microwave heats food with microwaves alone. Convection models offer versatility for grilling, baking, and crisping, beyond just reheating.​

LG microwaves are designed for more even heating, especially models with Smart Inverter technology, which provides consistent power control rather than intermittent heating. To improve heating performance in daily use, consider the following:

 - Spread food evenly across the plate

 - Stir or rotate food during reheating when possible

 - Use a microwave-safe cover to retain moisture

 - Allow food to rest for 1–2 minutes after heating

Yes. Inverter technology is worth it if you want more consistent results.

 It delivers continuous, precise power (instead of on-off cycling), and third-party testing shows:

 - More even heating (reduced temperature deviation)

 - Improved defrosting performance (76% → 93%)

 - Faster cooking (up to 1.6× quicker)

A black LG microwave is designed to complement modern kitchen interiors, especially spaces that use dark cabinetry or mixed metal finishes. It helps create a cohesive, premium look when paired with other LG kitchen appliances. While color does not affect cooking performance, LG black finishes are often chosen for their aesthetic versatility and ability to blend seamlessly into kitchen designs.

LG microwaves often use stainless steel for exterior finishes due to its durability, hygiene, and premium appearance. It is resistant to corrosion and easy to clean, making it suitable for everyday kitchen environments. Some LG models may also feature stainless steel or EasyClean™ interior coatings designed to simplify maintenance and improve durability.

No. Stainless steel containers or any metal cookware should not be placed inside an LG microwave.

 Metal reflects microwave energy, which can cause:

 - Sparks or arcing

 - Damage to the appliance

 - Uneven or ineffective heating

 Even though LG microwaves may use stainless steel for the exterior or interior structure, this is designed for safe operation and does not mean metal cookware is microwave-safe.

A microwave with an Air Fry function is an appliance that combines microwave and air frying functions in one unit. It helps save counter space while offering the following benefits:

 - Crispy Cooking with Little to No Oil: Powerful high-speed air circulation technology delivers crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside results for frozen foods, chicken, and fried dishes without the need for additional oil.

 - Expanded Large-Capacity Cooking Space: Unlike conventional basket-style air fryers that are narrow, it utilizes the wide and flat interior space of the microwave, allowing you to cook large portions or bulky dishes all at once.

 - EasyClean™ for Grease-Free Maintenance: There is no need to worry about the hassle of cleaning up grease after air frying. Thanks to LG’s exclusive EasyClean™ interior coating technology, you can wipe away stubborn grease splatters with just a damp cloth, without using harsh chemical cleaners.

Most LG microwaves include a Child Lock function designed to prevent accidental operation, especially in households with children. When activated, the control panel is disabled so cooking functions cannot be started unintentionally.

An LG convection microwave combines microwave technology with hot-air circulation to cook food efficiently. Microwaves heat the food quickly, while a heating element and fan circulate hot air evenly inside. This combination allows you to perform multiple cooking tasks, including reheating, baking, roasting, grilling, and crisping. The microwave function is useful for faster cooking or reheating, while convection mode helps create a more evenly browned and crispy exterior. Depending on the recipe, you can also use both modes together for faster cooking with better texture. This makes a convection microwave a versatile appliance for everyday cooking.

Convection microwaves can be an efficient choice because they combine multiple cooking functions in one appliance. Instead of using separate appliances for reheating, baking, roasting, or grilling, you can perform these tasks using a single unit. Energy consumption depends on factors like cooking mode, power rating, food quantity, and cooking duration. Using the appropriate mode for each recipe helps to avoid unnecessary energy use. You can also reduce consumption by cooking appropriate quantities together and avoiding unnecessary preheating where it isn't required. For the best results, follow the manufacturer's recommended cooking settings and operating guidelines.

The electricity consumed by an LG convection microwave depends on its power rating, cooking mode, and duration of use. Microwave cooking can heat food relatively quickly, while convection cooking uses a heating element and fan to circulate hot air. Longer cooking times and frequent use of convection mode can naturally increase electricity consumption. To manage usage, select the appropriate cooking mode for the food, avoid running the appliance longer than needed, and use suitable cookware and quantities. Checking the appliance's rated power consumption can also help you understand its electricity requirements before purchasing it.

An LG convection microwave combines microwave cooking with hot-air circulation, giving greater flexibility than a conventional microwave. It can handle everyday cooking as well as baking, roasting and browning.

• Versatile cooking: Reheat, cook, bake, roast and crisp food using different cooking modes.
• Faster preparation: Combination cooking can reduce cooking time for suitable dishes by using microwave and convection heating together.
• Even cooking: A fan circulates hot air around the cavity, helping food cook and brown more evenly.
• Space-saving: One appliance can perform functions that may otherwise need separate cooking appliances.
• Greater convenience: Preset programmes and combination modes can simplify everyday meal preparation.

Regular cleaning helps keep a convection microwave fresh, hygienic, and ready for everyday cooking. A simple cleaning routine can also help prevent food residue and grease from building up inside.

• Let it cool: Switch off and unplug the appliance, then allow it to cool completely before cleaning.
• Wipe the interior: Use a soft, damp cloth with mild detergent to remove food splashes and grease.
• Clean removable parts: Wash the turntable and other removable components separately, following the manufacturer's instructions.
• Handle stubborn stains gently: Use a damp cloth to loosen dried residue instead of scrubbing aggressively.
• Avoid harsh cleaners: Do not use abrasive pads, steel wool, or strong chemicals to prevent damage to the interior surface.
• Dry thoroughly: Wipe the cavity with a clean, dry cloth before using the appliance again.
