The microwave is easy to install, looks great, it is quiet and best of all it has the easiest controls compared to other microwave/convection combo appliances.
This model was supposed to replace my 12 year old off brand over the range 1000 watt microwave. First thing I noticed when using the microwave, the cooking would take from 2 to 5 minutes on average longer to cook anything compared to my old microwave. I expected slightly different cook times since this microwave it's 900 watts compared to my old 1000 watt microwave but the difference was very significant. The convection, micro/convection option it would have been great feature but every time I used it(7 times) the smell like burned plastic/rubber would become really bad. Preheat to 450F would take around 15-20 minutes and then entering suggested cook time still left the food half way cooked. It's also supposed to be fingerprint resistant, but is not. The annoying end of cooking 4x beeping will repeat until the button is pressed or if door is opened but there is an option in settings to turn the beeping off completely. As much as I really did not want it to uninstall and return it, but after finding similar complains on different sites, I end up returning it. It's too bad, I had high hopes for this microwave/convection appliance especially for the price.
