    I have an LG microwave, one with a round cavity but not the solardom one (unfortunately)

    We don't use our microwave a great lot... it mostly gets used for defrosting or reheating but is used everyday. I liked that it has a domed back, it makes it easier to heat more than 1 bowl.
    From memory ours was cheap... around $200 from Good Guys.
    We've had it for about a year and so many people that have seen it love it.
    We got an extended warrenty on ours which is for 2 yrs.

    I also have the lg round cavity, from harvey norman, on sale at 189, we have had it since dec and i love it, my square plates actually turn, because of the round cavity.
    We use our microwave everyday, we love the rice function, as it takes out the guess work.
    It has a round space which is easy to clean.

    I think its 34 litre, but because of the round cavity, it actually looks bigger on the inside, i had a 40 lite, one that was 30 yrs old, was my parents, and i dont see any difference.
    I looked in the instruction manual, did not say, the box is in the garage, it has it on there, but it says its 1100 watt.
    Hope this helps.

    Thumbs up

    Anytime I need to use an oven basically! I bake in it, cook dinners in it. I have a regular oven in this new place and it's massive, but I've never used it! I love conventional oven side of things. Only problem is if you're baking and you've already hit pre-heat and then you need to melt something etc, you have to stop the pre-heat and do what you need to do then pre-heat again. The easiest thing is do get it all ready to go right into the oven, then pre-heat, as it doesn't take very long at all!

    I've even used the combination part of the oven. Part oven, part microwave. Cooked a roast in it the first night I had it... omg drool The best roast I've ever done, and it took only 30 mins to do it, instead of an hour and a bit!

    Oh wow well to tell ay the truth im a bit scared to use any features on myn as i just bought one but i went for warentee rather than name brand as i tend to over use things and need to fall back on warentee's . Im a bit daunted on all the features and retaining all the things ive read.


    do u have any cake recipes for it can u sue those silicon muffin and cake times in it???

    I have some recipes (not with me, as I'm at pil's) but I use my silicone muffin form in it, as well as my tin ones. My silicone one is Tupperware, not that that matters, but it can go in the microwave as well as the oven, whereas the tin one is only for the oven.

    I'll get back to you with some recipes
