1. Are you able to do it? Positive. Will it look misplaced? Probably

Do what you need however I’d recommend spending the cash to make use of a drawer microwave in a drawer microwave house. Should you do not need to spend the cash use an over the vary mannequin. Do not do a hybrid method.

Most inbuilt microwave are merely counter prime fashions paired with a trim equipment. I’ve no fears about utilizing a over the range unit as a inbuilt. Any unit that you may get a inbuilt trim equipment for ought to work high quality. However I additionally do not consider it is best to have any issues discovering a inbuilt unit (microwave and trim equipment) costing nicely lower than $1500.
My present dwelling has had 2 inbuilt models over our oven in 30+ years (possible want a third in close to future). They have been each merely counter prime fashions with trim kits. Observe that we have now a 3+ inch drawer between oven and microwave, so direct radiant warmth is just not a difficulty. Even convective warmth is blocked.

After which in two completely different AirBNB’s we have now used we discovered the very same microwave not becoming within the cupboard over the oven, so what we did is hardly distinctive.
The microwave is cheap, however hiring a cupboard maker / carpenter to make a customized matching match will price you $1500.

If I had a counter house different I would not quit counter house to facilitate a built-in microwave oven.

Positive it’s… As low cost as a few hindered. I simply changed one at $500 for a smaller mannequin.. 30 extensive (the primary measurement) x 11 excessive x one thing deep. Has a fan as nicely. Simple sufficient set up for a hack with only a few primary handbook abilities.

When our built-in unit failed, that is what we realized – and did.
We began in search of fashions that include elective trim kits. IIRC we could not discover the precise dimension we wanted – however we might get the correct mount to permit sufficient air flow with a Microwave that match. Once more, IIRC we ended up getting customized made third celebration trim items (or had them custom-made??) – because the sizes have been simply barely off. Doubt only a few know this is not a specialised “built-in” Microwave. And we spent a fraction of your estimate on this (granted 5+ years in the past).

It’s the finest answer, if one is able to a primary easy set up. All of the built-ins simply have a trim equipment.
