Q: Questiondoes it comes with a trim for built in. I currently have a GE profile. Is the trim standard for all GE microwave.

Asked 1 month ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Hi there! Thank you for reaching out. The GMBS3068BF built-in microwave does not include a trim kit — it is sold separately. Frigidaire trim kits are specifically designed for our models and are not compatible with GE or other brands. For this microwave, the recommended trim kit is GMTK3068AF and GMTK2768AF. - Reed

Q: QuestionOur cutout width is 25.75" and the maximum width for this microwave is 25" .. I am trying to figure out why that won't work if the trim kit will cover it? Can I make our opening width of 25.75" work?

Asked 1 month ago by Emma.

• A:Answer Hi Emma! Thank you for reaching out. For the Frigidaire GMBS3068BF microwave, even with a trim kit, the maximum cutout width is 25", so your opening of 25.75" is too wide. While a trim kit can cover gaps cosmetically, it cannot provide the structural support or secure mounting needed for the microwave, and attempting to install it in an oversized space could make the unit unstable, misaligned, or unsafe, and may void the warranty. The only safe options are to reduce the opening to 25" or less or select a model designed for a wider space. - Reed

Q: QuestionThe instructions for the 30" trim kit say the cutout height maximum is 17". Mine is 18", which is also the kit height. It also says the maximum cutout width is 25", but mine is 28 1/4". Will this oven and kit fit our cutout. Our cutout depth is 25".

Asked 1 month ago by Gert.

• A:Answer Hi Gert, thank you for reaching out. No, with your cutout at 18″ high and 28¼″ wide, the 30″ trim kit will not fit properly. - Reed

Q: Questiondoes this require an optional trim kit for built-in installation?

Asked 1 month ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer You do not need the trim kit. It’s optional in case you have a large opening for the microwave to create a more finished look. I replaced my old built in microwave and used the trim kit that we already had.

Q: Questionwhat size does cabinet cut out need to be for trim kit

Asked 2 months ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Good day, valued consumer! According to the Frigidaire Gallery 2.2 cu. Ft. Built‑In Microwave installation specifications from the manual and spec sheet: - Height: 16 3⁄4″ to 17″ - Width: 24 3⁄4″ to 25″ - Depth: at least 20″ deep from the front face into the cabinet/space. The trim kit faceplate is larger than the cut‑out and designed to overlap the cabinet edges for a finished built‑in appearance, so the cabinet cut‑out size matches the microwave spec above, and the trim surrounds it externally. - Cabinet cut‑out size for installation: Height 16 3⁄4″–17″, Width 24 3⁄4″–25″, Depth 20″ minimum. - Trim kit sizes: available in 27″ or 30″ widths, installed around the microwave after it fits into the cut‑out. - Maico

Q: QuestionCan this microwave be used as a countertop model?

Asked 3 months ago by Washington1.

• A:Answer Hi Washington1! Thank you for reaching out. It is designed as a built-in unit, not a countertop model. It requires installation into cabinetry or a wall opening with proper ventilation and a compatible trim kit. Because it lacks the finished sides and airflow design needed for countertop use, it should not be placed directly on a counter. - Reed

Q: QuestionNeed to replace in counter model # FGM0226NUFA. Is it still available?? If, not, provide replacement model #. Is current trim kit compatible with updated model # ??

Asked 4 months ago by Sammy.

• A:Answer Hi Sammy! Thank you for reaching out. The Frigidaire FGM0226NUFA microwave has been discontinued and replaced by the Frigidaire Gallery GMBS3068BF model, which offers a similar 2.2 cu. ft. capacity and updated design. However, the existing trim kit from the older model is not compatible with the new one. The GMBS3068BF requires a separate 27-inch or 30-inch trim kit specifically designed for this model to ensure proper fit and ventilation. For a smooth replacement, it’s recommended to purchase the updated trim kit that matches your cabinet width. - Reed
