Compare your opening with the documented dimensions
This checks only the opening measurements recorded below. Conditional cutouts, trim, ventilation, utilities, support and delivery access still need a separate review.
Installation details to review
- Use the exact compatible 27-inch or 30-inch trim kit; the required cutout is wider than the microwave body.
- Recorded depth assumes the receptacle is inside the cabinet. The 19.5-inch alternative with external receptacle is installer-review only.
- The trim manual requires 1 inch of airflow space beyond the frame on every side, in addition to frame overlap.
- Cutout width and height are stated target dimensions; permissible tolerances have not been verified. Do not treat larger openings as automatically acceptable.
- The trim kit and microwave may be installed alone or above a single electric wall oven per trim instructions; other appliance combinations require their applicable manufacturer instructions.
Official owner center lists manufacture through Present. Product-page extraction includes conflicting availability and discontinued UI text; local stock and manufacturing status have not been independently confirmed. Check exact model availability with retailer before purchasing.
Confirm the full model suffix and the revision of the installation instructions. Dimensional checks do not establish utility compatibility, structural support, safe clearances or installation approval.
