the light under the microwave is a great plus, we use it as much as the microwave when we are cooking on the stove.

GE Spacemaker JVM1540 950 Watts

from www.bestbuy.com
the light under the unit itself lights the stove up much better, which is nice because you will loose some lighting from your overhead light to the stove(at least i did).
from "Bigmoot", www.abt.com
used mostly for light cooking and re-heating.
from www.amazon.com
the microwave itself is very nice, i like the strengths of the fan and the light for the over the stove use.

from www.amazon.com
the lighting (it has a nightlite feature) and fan speed options are excellent and when used as a range hood (over my little electric skillet) it has done an excellent job drawing in steam and grease.
from www.amazon.com
we really appreciate the multiple levels of lighting and fan speeds, and the accessories packaged with the unit all work well.

Imperial Sharp 800 Watt 0.8 Cu. Ft. Touch Screen

$103.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
my only caveat is the light, which works fine when the oven is running, but not when the oven is stopped and the door is opened.
from www.amazon.com
it's not fancy, it is louder than a full size, and there is no light except when its running and the lighting is poor at best.
from www.amazon.com
only complaint is it is too light, and moves back when you push the buttons.
from www.amazon.com
only additional feature i would have liked to see would be lighted digits for clock / timer versus the old style of black digits against a grey background.
from www.amazon.com
one minor, minor thing is: there's no light on the inside when you open the door.

(yes, some displays actually look better with a signal higher than their native resolution.) the remote feels too light in your hand, but really cool universal remotes with lcd screens and backlit

you can if fact turn off the "active light control ai" anyone who doesn't take the time to look @ the options within the menu doesn't have my vote!

the oven prompts you with flashing lights next to each button,step by step.
from www.amazon.com
microwave, convection, sensor cook, etc.), the next appropriate button or knob lights up so there's no need to read the text message to know which step to take next.
from www.amazon.com
i will say that, assuming you have some idea of how to perform some particular operation, the system of lights does a pretty good job of leading you through the set of buttons and knobs you need to

Sharp R-320HQ 1200 Watts

from www.amazon.com
but the keypad has several drawbacks: the tiny lettering is light gray on medium gray; my elderly parents could not even read the numbers, which were shadowed in addition.
from www.amazon.com
the numbers on the keypad are a little hard to see in dim light.
from www.amazon.com
however if you like light butter, 50% less fat, or any kind of low fat popcorn, forget it, as it will not come out as desired.
