Panasonic - 30" Trim Kit for Select Microwaves - Stainless steel

you have been warned! not only is this trim difficult to install because it requires precision cabinetry design (+/- 2mm); it also has cheap plastic connection parts that break -- and the company will not replace. Panasonic wants $36 for the parts replacement kit to replace one 10 cent plastic piece. pros: fits around the microwave. do not recommend. would never buy again.

This cost nearly what the microwave cost, but it looks great installed in our built-in cabinetry. The microwave fits it perfectly and the Panasoic inverter microwaves are the best! Intuitive to use and handle reduced power much better than the Dacor and DCS (I think made by Samsung?) that we have had. Inexpensive great microwave made up for cost of the trim kit!

Nice looking piece, Absolutely terrible, and confusing instructions. Job should have taken a short time. It ended up being a lot more time then I expected.

Bought this to go with the Panasonic microwave and had it professionally installed, it looks great but a bit pricey.

This kit was great. Easy to install and give the microwave great finished look

Quite a nice item but let down by some cheap plastic parts i.e. attachment clips and their abysmal so-called 'Customer Service'. I would not go back to Panasonic for anything. One of the attachments broke and they wouldn't make the simple gesture of sending me a replacement - must cost all of 10 cents!! I was driven nuts by their avoidance of helping me and got bounced around and finally was forced to give up. The corner of the trim is now held to the woodwork by a piece of sellotape; I would suggest to them that they provide an extra couple of these things in the packaging because I'm certain I'm not the first to have this problem. Maybe it would cut into their profit margin too much and also be too much work for their CS staff to handle.
