“Does this get hotter/need more ventilation than just a microwave? Trying to replace a same size microwave in a wooden cabinet, yet see clearances "recommended" are 3" on sides & top. I never had this much clearance prior over 20 years with no issues.”

I also use a wooden cabinet to hold our mw. Clearance is a little over 2" on the sides. I keep an eye on it, especially while using the air fryer and convection oven features, but so far I have not noticed any problems with venting or excessive heat buildup.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello. Thanks for checking with us! This unit is not built-in capable. We do not recommend installing it in a cabinet, because the location is unable to provide the air flow necessary for proper operation of the microwave. We do have some built-in models, such as model PEB7227ANDD and PEB7227DLBB, but the dimensions are a little different than the model you are looking at. We recommend checking them out to see if they can meet your needs, and should you have any additional questions, please reach out to us!- Kianna@GEA
