How to choose

Decide what the oven must do. A solo oven reheats and defrosts. A grill model adds a top heater. A convection model adds hot air. The convertible model adds air fry. Our guide to the best solo microwave oven and the best convection microwave oven cover each type across brands.

Next, match the size. LG lists 20, 28 and 30 litres. Larger cavities take bigger bowls and trays. They also need more room on the counter.

Then compare the output. Two models list 700 W. Three list 900 W. If you cook mostly small portions, the lower figure may be enough.

Check the warranty carefully. LG says warranty terms can differ by model, so its manual gives the exact terms. Three of the five show 1 year on labour and 1 year on parts, and the convertible lists 10 years on its charcoal lighting heater only (parts only). Only the 30 L solo does not state a warranty.

Also look at how many menus you will use. The MC2846BV lists 251. Fewer menus may be enough if you cook the same dishes each week.

For broader context, see the best microwave oven, the best microwave oven brand and the best microwave oven for home use. The full ovens (OTG and microwave) section lists every guide in one place.

Verdict

The LG 28 L Convection Microwave Oven MC2846BV is the broadest LG on the listed specs. It has the longest menu list, both heaters and a stainless steel cavity. The LG 28 L Convertible Microwave Oven with Air Fry suits those who want air frying as well.

For lighter needs, the LG 20 L Grill Microwave Oven MH2044DB adds a grill to a small body. The LG 20 L Solo Microwave Oven MS2043BP and the LG 30 L Solo Microwave Oven with Glass Door cover plain reheating at two sizes. Choose by the job you want the oven to do.
