LG MS4296OMBB | 42L NeoChef Smart Inverter Microwave Oven

LG Smart Inverter Microwave Ovens vary the temperature (or wattage) when performing different types of cooking functions. This may sound obvious, but it differs from the typical conventional MWOs, where instead of reducing power, the MWO simply switches on/off to artificially simulate temperature increase or decrease. You may be familiar with this having owned a conventional microwave, where you can actually hear / see the power cutting in and out when operating.

The sporadic nature of this approach creates an imprecise cooking environment, often resulting in underheating, patchy over-thawing, or a dish that is stone cold on one side, and piping hot elsewhere. It's a similar idea to turning your heater or air conditioner on and off to reach a desired temperature in a room, instead of maintaining a steady, constant temperature over time through adjustment of power. By being able to precisely adjust the wattage and temperature, LG Smart Inverter MWOs are versatile enough to handle delicate proofing, targeted defrosting as well as ensuring piping hot meals at a touch.

LG Sensor Cook

A humidity sensor detects the amount of residual moisture in the cavity, to allow the MWO to adjust itself to give you optimal cooking results based on the pre-selected sensor cook option. For example, the Meat Pie sensor cook option (yes, we have a very Australian meat pie sensor cook mode!) would treat the moisture differently to the defrost function, or the casserole function. The power levels used on the different modes are also adjusted in line with the type of item being cooked.

Hot and cold

The Inverter technology in the LG NeoChef® enables more precise temperature control, and a more even distribution of heat throughout foods. This helps to evenly defrost foods and avoid overcooked and unthawed areas.1

Fast Cooking

Cook up a storm quickly2. Reduce cooking and reheating time with up to 1200W of power.

Proofing

Why Buy?

Smart inverter precision for consistent microwave cooking

The LG NeoChef's Smart Inverter technology delivers variable power control rather than the on-off cycling of conventional microwaves. This lg smart inverter microwave maintains steady wattage adjustment across its 1200W output, eliminating the familiar switching sounds and uneven heating that creates hot and cold spots in food.

The humidity sensor automatically adjusts cooking parameters based on moisture levels detected in the 42L cavity, adapting power and timing for different foods. Whether defrosting meat, reheating casseroles, or using the dedicated meat pie mode, the inverter maintains precise temperature control for even results. The LED display provides clear feedback while the system works through delicate tasks like yoghurt proofing at low temperatures.

At 54cm wide and finished in matte black, the NeoChef integrates cleanly into contemporary kitchen designs. The consistent power delivery reduces cooking times while the sensor technology handles routine reheating with minimal input. For households prioritising cooking precision over basic reheating, the inverter system delivers measurable improvements in texture and temperature distribution.

Buy this if…

  • You want even defrosting and reheating without hot spots
  • You frequently use microwave cooking beyond basic reheating
  • You value precise temperature control for delicate foods
  • You need 42L capacity for family-sized portions
  • You prefer sensor-guided cooking over manual timing
