This review is from: Frigidaire FGMV173KB Gallery 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-The-Range Microwave - Black
I recently bought a brand new house so I was in the market for a brand new stove, fridge, microwave and dishwasher. After much research, I am so glad I decided with the Frigidaire Gallery models. I didn't want the classic stainless steel models as they seem so cold to me but I didn't want white as well so black was a perfect option.
Setup: I had never installed a microwave over a range before and it was much easier than I had expected. I was lucky enough to have someone who had done it before but it only took 20 minutes to get it up.
Functions: I love some of the functions that this microwave came with. The popcorn function works perfectly (doesn't burn but pops practically all of the kernels). The defrost buttons works quite well as well and has different options for types of foods. For a quick start 1 minute, you can push the start button and it just goes, its a nice fast feature too. I imagine there are many more but I haven't had to use any other ones as of yet.
Issues: I have found that the suction for steam and smoke isn't too powerful and I wish that was much better. I also had to take off the microwave and remove the metal cover that opens and closes when you turn on the fan because it was buzzing and very loud and iritating.
Other than that one issue, it has been great.
