Product Manuals

Q: I have a GE model# JE1590SH02 with trim kit. I need to replace the the microwave. Can I use any of the new model GE microwave ovens and still use my old 29.8 trim kit.

A: Hi John- We certainly appreciate your loyalty! Microwave trim kits are not interchangeable. A trim kit consists of the trim frame, as well as an upper, lower, and rear duct that attaches to and encases the microwave inside the cabinet cut-out. It is important to only use the trim kit designed for that model. We suggest to view our GE Profile™ Series 1.5 Cu. Ft. Countertop Convection/Microwave Oven PEB9159SJSS (Stainless Steel/Gray- matches new Wall Ovens). It is compatible with Microwave Optional 30" Built-In Trim Kit JX9153SJSS. Or, PEB9159DJBB (Black) with Microwave Optional 30" Built-In Trim Kit JX9153SJSS (Stainless). We encourage you to view the Quick Specs for cabinet cutout dimensions: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=PEB9159SJSS_R2.pdf - Keep in touch!

Q: I just bought a GE profile microwave model PCST22U1WSS, what trim kit do I use with this microwave? Thanks

Q: I have microwave peb1590sm2ss GE Profile Series 1.5 Cu ft Countertop Convection/Microwave Oven with trim kit. I need a replacement stainless microwave and keep the same trim kit, i dont care if its convection just micro is fine. suggestions ? low priced

A: Due to different configurations and design changes involving airflow and heat issues, new microwaves are only approved for installation with current trim kits. Your current model is 1.5 cubic ft. and 1000 Watts the dimensions are the following: 14 3/4 H x 22 5/8 W x 19 7/8 D. We recommend model PEB9159SJSS with trim kit Optional 27" Built-In Kit JX9152SJSS or Optional 30" Built-In Kit JX9153SJSS. If you don't need the convection, please take a look at model, PEB7227ANDD with the trim kit- JX7227SLSS (Stainless steel); JX7230SLSS (Stainless steel).

Finishes out your microwave
Take my advice and just order the matching trim kit. We had a different microwave and i thought i could retro fit the trim kit to a new microwave. That ended as an epic disaster. Then found out the “new” microwave did not have a trim kit available. I had a teally hard time stomaching that a new trim kit could cost more than a new microwave with some models. Came across a GE profile microwave that was oerfect fit for my cabinet. The trim kit for this microwave was far less expensive than the microwave. Let me tell you that the installation was a piece of cake. The old trim kit and the screw holes for the new trim kit happened to line up perfectly. No need to hire an installer. It took me all of 15 minutes to install the base of the trim kit with a ohillips head screw driver.

microwave trim kit
Overall, this item appears acceptable, We used certain items from the kit to mount the microwave within a cabinet. However, we could not use the frame as the screw mounts to attach the frame to the cabinet were not on the corner areas themselves but were a bit inward. This placement caused the screws to go in at an angle and the opening was too large for the screws to take hold in the wood. So be aware of this.

Fine enough, expensive, and confusing to select
I originally had difficulty selecting the right trim kit for my microwave (and the "suggested item" I was prompted for was NOT the right one...hence I had to return one and reorder this one). Generally it's a good looking kit. I really wish GE would just make the Slate microwave too so that there isn't a color difference between the black micro and the slate trim. I also find it absurd that it's so expensive. It's literally a couple pieces of plastic.
