I don't think it will work... while the unit itself measures 11.5 in depth, the back sticks out and needs another 1.5, so 13 inches total is what you need for depth.

GEMICRO · Answer

The feet are very small and are 8-8.5 inches from the back of the microwave which is 11 inches deep.

The small tabs (that are the feet) are 12" apart - measuring from center to center of each foot (side to side). Front to back, they are approximately 7" apart. The front feet are set back approximately 3''.

Hi Carol- The location of the feet / legs on the bottom of a countertop microwaves are not a dimension that is critical to the proper and recommended installation of any of our countertop microwaves. As a result, this is not a dimension we have available. The foot location does vary from one model to the next. It is important to note that the surface the microwave stands on should be the depth of the microwave, not just the depth to the front legs. This is a recommended safety precaution. The front edge of the microwave (measured at door) should sit at least 3" or more back on the counter or shelf to avoid accidental tipping.
