I simply love the sensor function. As a busy mum to a super busy toddler time in the kitchen needs to be minimal. Especially when getting dinner going. So that’s where my love of the sensor function comes in.
I don’t have to think how long it’ll take to cook frozen veggies, or reheat plates. Or even defrost meat.
I just tell the microwave what I’ve put in it and it works it out for me. And then it lets me know when it’s ready. Perfect!

Some more great microwave uses! LG NeoChef is not just good for food guys, it can do all kind of wonderful things, like make brown sugar usable again once it is rock hard, warm up towels, get more juice from citrus fruit… The list goes on! Take a look at this site and see what you can learn. For me it was a revelation. The pics are funny too as they are a bit old school and home done… Here is one of the pics, and here is the link too: http://www.viralnova.com/what-microwaves-can-do/
Does anyone have any more tips to share?

Yes it can be done, and it tastes good – bacon can be cooked in the microwave. Not only is the taste good, but it is ready so quickly and there is no pan to wash up afterwards.
Page 16 of the manual shows how to do it… Basically take four rashers of bacon, place them on paper towel on a microwave safe dish, cover with more paper towel. Chose the sensor cook menu and boom, bacon in a hear beat! Note, pic is not of mine, as I forgot LOL

I have mastered scrambled eggs in the NeoChef – here is the basics:
Crack a couple of eggs into a bowl, scramble with a fork, and microwave in 30-second increments until cooked through, stirring at each interval. Alakazam, scrambled eggs! Throw in some chopped veggies and serve with a slice of toast for a complete, filling meal.
Remember the size of your eggs and the heat you cook on will affect the cooking time, so it is important to do the 30 second intervals, and remember the eggs will continue to cook when removed from microwave, so stop when they are slightly under. Note photo is

Reheating vegetables and chicken Casserole in minutes!
I cooked a vegetable and chicken Casserole the other night and decided we would pull it out have have it for dinner as a quick and healthy dinner choice. I was a little worried about the sizes and portions of the chicken mixed in with all the different vegetable but to my surprise found that the microwave reheated them quite well. I used the manual function rather than reheat just so I could compare the two and was pleasantly surprised by the difference. It only took a couple of minutes and had dinner ready in a jiffy the cooling automatically happens in the microwave which gave me piece of mind whilst I was tending to baby and getting dinner on the tablet all in all a great microwave that seems pretty reliable with a brand I can trust!

Still amazed by the NeoChef. I actually got to use the soften feature for butter for a slice and it is great. softens perfectly with no splatters. With 3 kids I don’t want to spend time cleaning my microwave all the time but with the NeoChef I haven’t had any food splatters. My 11 and 12 year old love using the NeoChef because it’s so easy to use and they think it looks cool. Thank you for letting me review the amazing LG NeoChef.

I love it! The LG Neo Chef is so easy and enjoyable to use. I think it has a very modern approach to the concept of microwave heating. It’s sleek and attractive and will look great in any kitchen, the only downside is that it really needs to be at bench height and not in an elevated microwave hutch, which unfortunately is how my old school kitchen is designed. The door of the microwave hinging at bottom and pulling out towards you like a standard oven door can make things a little awkward in a space like mine, but this is one of my only criticisms.
I love the extra features it has, however I think it could be improved on a little if they found a way to increase the capacity of the air-frying feature. I found the air-frying feature to work quite well, however, it is not a large enough capacity to prepare a dinner for a family of 4, but could perhaps be used to prepare a side dish or enough food for a couple.
The slow cooker works well and would be a great feature to use for busy mums or dads as you could put it on before you left for work and it would simply stop cooking when it’s finished, unlike a conventional slow cooker that will continue to cook until you turn it off. The only thing I noticed is that I thought the meat wasn’t quite as tender as when I have slow cooked meals in my conventional cooker, however, perhaps it may have just needed 8 hours instead of 6.
The steamer works great and seems to have enough space to prepare veggies for a family of four.
Lastly, I love the convection feature because it actually has a grill inside, you can see it heat up above your food so you know that it is going to crisp and brown whatever you are cooking quite nicely. I cooked a lasagna in mine and it worked quite well with the cheese melting nicely and getting a nice golden brown look to it.
Overall I would say that the Neo Chef is a great addition to any kitchen. It’s a powerful microwave with a decent amount of internal space so that you can fit a medium sized oven tray inside- a lot of others on the market are simply too small for this.

The LG Neochef smart inverter microwave has so many functions such as reheat, soften, melt, defrost and fermentimg, all of which makes life easier for the busy, unorganized mother like myself. I especially love the soften feature, when baking cakes i can soften the butter to the right temp in a matter of seconds.

I love that I can cook or warm up veggies in just minutes. I made pasta the other night and really wanted to reheat it today so I used the LG Neochef Microwave Oven and it warmed it up perfectly. I was able to give it to my son right away as he was so hungry. I love that it self cleans so I don’t have to worry too much about all the nasties. It’s a really great microwave and I’m pretty impressed so far!

A couple of very busy weeks have gone by since receiving my NeoChef. Christmas and New year brought lots of family gatherings and LOTS of leftovers to heat! This little beauty doesn’t miss a beat – even heat throughout and no cold spots! It’s so quiet you forget you have it on till it sings its little tune to say it’s done! We’ve had guests over and they have gushed about how fancy it looks, how big it is inside & how lovely it sounds. A few have even had to open, close & press a few buttons themselves! I have my daughter’s 5th birthday coming up next weekend so the next trial will be melting chocolate which I’m sure it will hit out of the park!

I am loving having the soften function on the LG NeoChef microwave. With lots of baking being done for 2 birthdays and Christmas over the last couple of weeks I have used this function almost everyday. I have been very impressed with this function as it has soften butter and cream cheese evenly. In my old microwave I would have to guess at which defrost function to use and would end of with fully melted parts and some still hard parts of the butter or cream cheese. I am impressed with the NeoChef that it has taken the guess work out of the softening process and it softens evenly.

A couple of weeks into using this microwave and Im still in love!!
It never boils over, things dont splatter, they heat quicker (and more evenly)- I dont know how I survived without it!
So far my absolute favorite feature it the time dial- not only is it super easy to add time, but you can take time off!! With my old microwave, if I pressed instant cook too many times it Id need to stop, clear and re-input my desired time. With this LG model I don’t even need to pause cooking! I just spin the dial and voila : )
The only con at all with this unit is that we find the cooling fan a little loud after the cooking has finished. In saying that, the pros far outweigh that little niggle.
Highly recommend

I’ve now used the LG NeoChef Microwave Oven for 4 weeks. Overall it is an impressive looking oven, sleek and very smart. There is so much you can do with it from easily melting butter for cooking, steaming vegetables perfectly, defrosting, cooking simple meals like pasta dishes, and of course the regular reheating that we do almost every day. It is also super easy to clean however because of the technology, I haven’t experienced the food explosions from food getting too hot as I did with my previous microwave. The only concern I have is that I constantly needed to have the manual on hand to use the various functions and don’t feel that the microwave is particularly intuitive to use. For instance, when using the sensor cook function, you’d need to memorise the number of the food types when cooking or refer to the manual to make sure you were selecting the right button. Perhaps it is a little to smart! Overall it has been great to review this microwave and I look forward to using it many times in the future.

After using the machine for a few weeks now I must say I still haven’t gotten used to not being able to punch a time in. The slide timer function is ok but I wouldn’t rave about it just yet. I keep going too far forward and then too far back, then too far forward….a little annoying and I end up just pressing the forward buttons. Hubby on the otherhand loves it. He’s always been a bit quicker at grasping new technology compared to me (okay okay ALOT quicker). I did get to try the keep warm function today as well as an elderly friend of hunny popped in just as I was getting his dinner ready. The function is so simple to use just pop in microwave and hit keep warm…

Having only one income in the house (for the moment-I will finish my degree one day-I will -I will lol!!) and two kids and a hubby who love to eat, I am always looking out for good deals on meat and ALWAYS have a freezer full. This means a fair bit of P P and P (prior planning and preparation) to make sure I have the meat defrosted and ready for cooking. My absolute nightmare is the number 20 whole frozen chickens…they take soooo long to defrost and I can’t even remember how many I’ve gone to cook them because they look defrosted but mustn’t be in the middle because after the correct amount of time in the oven are still raw on the inside whilst being perfectly cooked on the outside. This leaves me to put it back in the oven for longer drying out the rest of the chicken and blackening the skin. Even without that I often find myself at lunch time remembering that I forgot to take something out the night before and dread having to defrost in the microwave. Get to the point I hear you say…well my no. 20 chicken dramas are over…the new microwave must have defrosted correctly as 80 minutes in the oven and the chicken was cooked perfectly the whole way through, woo hoo I jumped for joy and may or may not have given the microwave a little kiss. As a side note I would like to mention that at first when using the defrost button I was a little annoyed that you had to pick the number which corresponds to the type of meat you are cooking (my old microwave used to show it on the screen which was much easier – well it did when the display worked properly anyway) lucky for me though I remembered reading that there was a quick guide on the machine which I soon found and used. Knowing when to turn the meat over wasn’t as clear cut as my old machine either…the old one displayed the words turn over and actually stopped…this one just chimes and continues defrosting.

I couldn’t help but post a second video of the end product of my frozen chicken defrosting and cooking in the microwave oven using the smart Inverter technology. My chicken was literally taken straight from the freezer and put straight into the microwave and I was amazed at the end result. The chicken was heated evenly right through and we were able to enjoy our meal within minutes. I liked that the defrost setting was easy to navigate. I have posted part 2 of the video here also.

Today I tried defrosting some frozen meals, I filmed them and in less than eight minutes I had a fully cooked from frozen dinner!. I liked that the timer would chime intermittently so that you can stop to check how hot the contents were getting so I would be able to remove anything that would be cooked.

This microwave is my sou chef in the kitchen! With a little one under a month old, i planned prior to birth home cooked meals that can be easily warmed up. This microwave warms all meals up perfectly, no cold spots, so easy to use! No need to give the hubby a huge list of instructions on how to you use it, its the perfect little helper when life is so hectic.

Baking today on the spur of the moment as per my usual style. I find a recipe which I actually have the ingredients for, banana muffins. I get the kids ready…hands washed, aprons on, utensils out, ingredients out, preheat the oven and begin following the steps…shift the flour…add the sugar..whisk the egg and add to the cooled melted butter…whoops I forgot to melt the butter. Then I remember that this new fancy microwave has a melt and soften butter function. Only thing is even though I read the instruction manual when we first got it, I’ve forgotten what to do. With a baking mess and two little ones in the kitchen I choose to skip finding the instructions and try and wing it. I did manage to melt my butter but I think I over did it and it went sprayed everywhere. On the upside…it’s super easy to clean inside! On that note I’ll say I’m sure the function does work properly if you follow the instructions but it looks like you need to know how many units of butter you are using… I’m sure the booklet must say how much a unit is but I could remember. Would have been much easier to input the weight of the butter (I knew that as the recipe asked for 60 grams).

One of the best features of this oven is it’s child lock feature. When the lock is set it prevents any cooking from taking place, which is very handy and huge relief with having 2 small boys at home. I also have many play dates at my house, so it is reassuring to know the children ate not in harms way.

…What you got cooking? That was the song that popped into my head when I first opened the box to the LG NeoChef Inverter Oven. It looks great, both the kids and hubby commented on how good it looked when they arrived home to see it set up in our kitchen after school and work. The most common words used to express its look were sleek and stylish. The black colour makes it look modern and way more cooler than our old white machine. When I turned it on I was pleasantly surprised by the lavender colour of the lights and display, it might sound strange but it looks and feels rather calming to me. Added to that calming effect is the lovely chime used to alert you to the completion of the cooking. We have an LG washing machine which also sings when it’s finished so I shouldn’t have been too surprised but I sure was releived. The annoying microwave beeps are gone for good! Having a quick look inside the hexagonal plate looks like it sits a lot stabler in the machine. Oh and I almost forgot the machine is a similar size to our old one (actually a little longer) and is way lighter and whisper quiet. I think this is a good thing, my Dad would probably say the opposite though, he gives everything the “heff test”, if it’s heavy it’s good quality! On that note I’m also a little worried about getting used to not having a number pad on the microwave. I’m so used to just punching in a number it seems a little strange not to be able to do it. Also wondering if it’s a little awkward to have to open the machine/leave it open to use the advanced options as they are hidden behind the door. I get that it looks better but functionality in my book should win over looks any day. Oh well…time will tell.

I tried the dinner plate function today, it was quick and easy, I found the instructions easy to follow and my dinner plate cooked so quickly! I liked that the oven cooled itself down so there wasn’t any smell. I am keen to test out the difference between sensor cook and reheat option. The microwave is starting to get smarter and smarter the more I use it! I still can’t believe I reheated my dinner plate so quickly, my potatoes were warmed evenly all the way through and the meat was warmed all the way through which n9rmaply doesn’t happen.

1/3 cup of water
Tablespoon of vinegar
1egg
Pop the water and vinegar in a microwave safe bowl then crack the egg into it. You can pop the yolk with a toothpick gently as it can sometimes build up to much pressure and pop.
Then pop in the microwave for 40 seconds.
Once cooked, remove from bowl with a slotted spoon to allow water to drop away then serve.

Versatile, but needs bigger accessories for families
We tried out the air fry function for one of our meals. We wanted to have fish and chips. The air fryer cooked the food reasonably well, however was too small to be able to fit enough food in it for the four of us (2 adults and 2 kids under 5). So far I’ve been impressed with the size of the microwave everywhere else and in and of itself it’s still great but as an air fryer the accessory to be used for this function would better suit a single person or maybe a couple, but not a standard family. The same is true of the steamer as the same accessories are used for this as well. In my next review I’m going to sum everything up and give my overall opinion.

Mums Reveal Their Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips
Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.
Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.
One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.
We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.
Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums
What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.
1. Nappy Free Time
“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.
We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.
2. Change Nappies Frequently
“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member
Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.
3. Use A Barrier Cream
“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes
Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.
4. Choose Gentle
“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F
Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.
Nappy Rash Myths & Facts
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies. ✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.
It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.
🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies. ✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation. ✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.
