LG LCRT2010ST vs Emerson MW9255B

Priced at only $150.00, this microwave oven offers overall excellent performance. Additionally, its premium features, such as auto-cooking and TCP compliance, escalate its values even further.

The oven is TCP compliant, which allows for hassle-free microwave cooking. If the food you bought has a TCP code, just enter it in the microwave and it will cook the food with the proper settings automatically.

The oven is capable of 1200 W of power, which is enough to bake a potato in 3 minutes. This means it's more powerful than the majority of the microwaves at the same price point.

The unit has a moisture sensor that can determine if the food is ready. This feature works very well with frozen foods, that it can cook evenly without any cold or overcooked spots.

There are special modes that allow you to melt or soften butter, cheese, chocolate, frozen juice, and other soft food. This reduces the risk of ruining the product by applying too much power.

The microwave will beep periodically if the door is left open for a prolonged time.

This microwave has six auto-cook options to choose from. There are options for bacon, beverages, chicken nuggets, hot cereal, muffins, and frozen or fresh rolls.

It can make popcorn almost perfectly using the preset mode.

The oven has 2.0 cu. ft. of cooking space, which is enough for most situations. The 16" wide turntable is suitable for a large pizza or plate.

The curve-shaped cavity makes cleaning a lot more comfortable, compared to the standard square-shaped ones, that have hard-to-clean corners.

It is reasonably priced at only less than $80, making it an ideal countertop microwave oven for students, young adults, and starting families.

This microwave eliminates the guesswork in determining the defrost time. Simply enter the kind of food and its weight and the machine automatically sets the optimal defrosting time and power level.

This microwave comes with a grill and a pan. The grill is used for steaks and pork chops, etc and the pan can be used to catch drippings from the grill so you won't have to do a major cleaning after every use.

There is a memory function that saves 3 of your preset cooking settings. This eliminates the need for you to memorize 3 different times and saves you time manually inputting them when you cook your top 3 most microwaved foods.

Cleaning the unit is easy. Just clean the insides with a damp washcloth and you can include the turntable on the top rack of your dishwasher. It is recommended to clean the microwave every now and then to remove any food residue.

A lockout function helps keep small children and anyone unfamiliar with this microwave safe. Press and hold the stop/clear button for three seconds to activate/deactivate the safety system. This also prevents the oven from operating while the door is open.

The MW9255B can has pre-set power levels for commonly microwaved foods like popcorn and pizza. This eliminates the need to manually set the time needed to cook. Just press one button, and the microwave will start heating.
