Frigidaire 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave: With one-touch controls, this Frigidaire microwave allows you to prepare a wide variety of snack and meal items with the push of a button. The microwave installs over your existing range and features a 2-speed fan that blows away cooking odors. Easily view your stovetop while you cook thanks to a fluorescent cook light.

This Frigidaire microwave easily meets all my needs. I was looking to free up some counter space and replace an outdated range hood and get something that matched my other Frigidaire appliances at the same time.
In general use, all of the basic features you would expect are there. Turntable, settings for Defrost, Popcorn, and reheat, as well as a timer function. The timer is my only gripe at this point. You can either use the microwave to heat something or the timer, but not both at the same time. I like to set the timer for the main meal cooking in the stove while cooking or reheating things in the microwave. Unfortunately, it cannot do both. It's a $20 fix, though, to just pick up a little kitchen timer, so I'm not going to sweat it.
Both the light and exhaust functions work really well. I was a little worried at first looking at the bottom of the microwave that it would perform since it looked a bit basic and cheap, but it has been pulling the smoke and smell out of the air so I can't complain. Once it has the filters in, it lost that cheap look as well.
Other than this, the microwave looks and performs great. We're using internal venting (this is one of the few models we found that had this), so installation was extremely easy.
What's great about it: Low cost, looks great, easy install
What's not so great: Timer function
I would recommend this to a friend!
