A:AnswerMaybe technically? But it’s not intended to. It’s meant for over th range. The bottom has a light and vents for being above the stove rather than feet to sit on a counter. And the top has bolt holes to attach to a cabinet. So, while it might be able to function sitting on a counter, it would look completely out of place.
A:AnswerSince I haven’t taken delivery of our Frigidaire microwave yet I can’t help you. But, Google the name and model number and download an owner’s manual and see what it says. Or, Google “how do you tighten hinges on a microwave” and see what comes up.
You say, new home. Is it still under warranty?

A:AnswerThat's a great question, ChefKim! In researching, we were able to see that this microwave is designed for adaptation to the following three types of ventilation: Outside top exhaust (Vertical Duct), outside back exhaust (Horizontal Duct), and recirculating (Non-Vented Ductless). We hope this information was helpful to your shopping experience. –Ciara
A:AnswerHello Jeff. From the cooktop surface to the top of the cabinet should be at least 30". Please review the available installation instructions in full before starting the installation process. Check our website for the installation instructions if needed. ~ Anna
A:AnswerYes. This model does have a Zero-Clearance Door. The answer provided by the Frigidaire rep is wrong. The drop down item "From The Manufacturer" states: Zero-Clearance Door - The microwave door opens to a 90° angle without touching any adjacent walls. I have this model and can 100% confirm that it has a Zero-Clearance Door.
A:AnswerNo. We recommend to never use the microwave oven without the turntable and support nor turn the turntable over so that a large dish could be placed in the microwave oven. Kindly, Anna
