LG 6324W1A001L Genuine OEM Magnetron for LG Microwaves

Excellent Replacement easy to install work perfectly

It has been working for 15 days without any problems. The quality seems very good, and when you hold it in your hand you realize it is not made of cheap components. I feel that my Microway heats up with more power and in less time than before (logically, the one that was damaged had lost power).

Works great. OEM replacement for 31.00. Other parts sites wanted 150.00 for the exact same item. Easy to install.

My LG microwave quit working after 6 years of use. Found out that the Magnetron went bad. Did the check on the old one but checked out good. Ordered the new one and this was an exact match. Fit right in and would you know it, it now works perfectly good. Hopefully it last another 6 years.

Had a magnetron failure years ago, sudden loud buzz and the whole thing appeared to die. Conventional wisdom then was that even the pros thought it too dangerous to fool around with. Fast forward to a few days ago, when our Kenmore microwave sounded off with a loud buzz (but kept operating - minus creating microwaves). Hit the stop button, pulled the plug, then told my wife that the magnetron just failed and the oven could not be repaired. Commenced shopping online for a new oven, but was not finding a satisfactory replacement. Just out of curiosity, I plugged in my model number to see what parts were available. I expected to find fuses, turntables and so forth. Imagine my surprise finding magnetrons for sale. Some more searching revealed videos showing how easy it is to replace one. I even found a video showing how to do the job on a microwave nearly identical to mine. There were lots of cautions about the potential dangers of encountering high voltage stored in the fat capacitor near the magnetron. More searching revealed that a correctly operating capacitor should discharge itself over a period of a day or two (do it yourself discharging of that thing can be done, but just reading about it scared me). I gambled that being unplugged for the four days between ordering and installing should be plenty for the capacitor to self discharge - and it did. It took more time to get the cabinet back on than to remove the cabinet and replace the magnetron. Total time was only about 30 minutes. Microwave is performing like new and is quieter (if you are noticing that your microwave seems to be louder than it used to be, the magnetron is likely dying - consider a preemptive replacement, or at least order up a new one to be ready). BTW, seller Martin Microwave is an excellent choice to insure that you get the exact item (some reviews here cite differences in the part numbers received from other sellers).

Has been working great in my microwave for over a year now.

My 15-year-old Kenmore Elite 1200W counter-top microwave had been working fine except that it would not heat food any more when running. This is a classic symptom of the magnetron going bad. I first tried a 3rd party replacement magnetron which looked the same and it only output about half the power of the original one. For a few dollars more, I got this one (the same brand and model as the original one) and my microwave is back to working just like it did when it was brand new. After 2 months of daily use by 4 people in the house, it has not dropped in power output at all. This is a great value compared to the cost of a replacement microwave and installation of the magnetron took about 30 minutes.

Item sold by Amazon but the manufacturer packaging was inadequate to fully protect the item. The antenna portion of the magnetron was dented, likely while in shipping. The packaging was in a loosely enclosed light bubble wrap within a thin cardboard box. Amazon shipping just placed it in their standard shipping bag offering little protection. Given the heavy weight of the item, would have been better if Amazon shipped in a cardboard box.Despite, the small dent, I installed it into the LG microwave. Fortunately, the magnetron worked without issue. Question now remains if it continues working over the long term.I would give the manufacturer a 2 star rating for not providing better packaging to protect the magnetron from potential physical damage.
