Frigidaire Over-the-Range Microwave Oven PLMV169DC

Date Published: 6/21/06

Offering high style and lots of features for the money, the Frigidaire PLMV169DC makes an excellent choice for installation over a range or cooktop.

The attractive stainless-steel and black finish makes this unit a highly desirable model for today's fashionably appointed kitchens. Outstanding features as well as good design make this unit a model worth considering. Especially user-friendly are the numerous sensor categories. Each category provides a one-touch, no-guess automatic setting for error-free cooking and reheating.

Error-free defrosting is also available thanks to a four-stage capable automatic defrost system. Spacious and fast, as well as convenient, the PLMV169DC has a large 1.6-cubic-foot cavity and 1,000 quick-cooking watts of microwave power. In addition to speed-effective cooking, this unit provides versatile, convenient ventilation for the cooking surface with a two-speed, 300-cfm fan complete with auto-shutoff.

Like many Frigidaire appliances, the Frigidaire PLMV169DC offers high style at a value-packed price and warrants some serious consideration.

Pro:value packed for the price.
Con: none
