Frigidaire FMOW1852AS Over-the-Range Microwave
FMOW1852AS over-the-range microwave combines Sensor Cook Technology with a spacious Fits-More™ interior to support fast, reliable cooking in residential and multi-unit kitchens.

FMOW1852AS Microwave Overview
FMOW1852AS Sensor Cooking and Microwave Performance
The advanced Sensor Cook system automatically adjusts cooking time and power based on food moisture levels. As a result, common items such as potatoes, vegetables, popcorn, and beverages heat evenly without guesswork.
With 1.8 cu. ft. of interior capacity and a 12.4-inch glass turntable, this microwave easily accommodates larger bowls, plates, and casserole dishes. Ten power levels and 1000 watts provide flexible performance for a wide range of cooking tasks.
Over-the-Range Microwave Controls and User Convenience
The capacitive touch control panel offers a clean, modern interface that is easy to operate. Preset options include Auto Cook, Melt/Soften, Reheat, Defrost by time or weight, and Quick Start (+10 and +30 seconds), simplifying everyday use.
A pocket-style handle and zero-clearance door allow the microwave to open fully even when installed next to cabinets or walls. Bright interior LED lighting improves visibility inside the cavity during operation.
FMOW1852AS Ventilation and Cooktop Lighting
This over-the-range microwave also functions as a ventilation system. Two exhaust fan speeds deliver up to 300 CFM of airflow to help remove smoke, steam, and odors from the cooktop below.
Dedicated LED cooktop lighting enhances visibility while cooking. The unit supports both ducted and ductless installations and includes two dishwasher-safe grease filters for easier maintenance.
Installation, Safety Features, and Reliability
Additional features include a child lock, adjustable clock settings, demo mode, and turntable on/off control with selectable weight units (lb/kg). These options support safe and flexible daily operation.
Measuring 29 7/8 inches wide and 16 3/8 inches tall, the FMOW1852AS fits standard 30-inch over-the-range spaces. UL and cUL listings confirm safety compliance, while a one-year parts and labor warranty provides added peace of mind.
