Q: QuestionMy GE Spacemaker Model JVM1441WH03 is malfunctioning. I would like to replace it with another GE Microwave. Can you advise me of some choices?
Asked by captgeb.
- A:Answer Hello Captgeb - this is Nancy at GE. We're sorry to hear that your microwave is not working properly and I am happy to help you with a great replacement model. The good news is that all of our 30" Spacemaker over-the-range microwaves are designed to be installed in the same standard upper cabinet space (30" min. width, 12" min.-13" max. depth, 66" min. mounting height). The height and depth of the models may vary slightly, but any of our new models could work in your current space. A model that you may like is the JVM6175DFWW. You will need to use the mounting brackets and hardware that come with the new microwave. The mounting kits have changed over the years and are not interchangeable. I hope this information is helpful! Thanks for checking with us!

Q: QuestionRegarding the included template for mounting the top two screws for under the cabinet...... do you need to cut-out the outer lines of the template so that the back "arrows" lines align with the back of the wall?
Asked by Jc.
This question was asked about the related product: GE - 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave with Convenience Cooking Controls - Stainless Steel
- A:Answer Yes, the template should be trimmed down according to the cabinet it is being installed on. The template states: 1. Fit template to bottom of upper cabinet. If cabinet bottom has a frame around it, measure frame thickness and trim along edges A, B, C, and D as needed to make up for frame thickness. Trim lines for ½”, ¾” or 1” frame thickness are on template.
