No, this microwave cannot be placed in a built-in cabinet.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi - An over-the-range microwave is not designed or approved for built-in installation in a cabinet where the bottom is covered. They cannot be used on a counter or shelf. The underside is not flat and would not provide a stable surface. Additionally, there can be a heat issue, especially if the vent fan or surface lights were accidentally turned on. See page 8 of the Installation Instructions approved installation: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-40675-4.PDF - We suggest GE Profile™ Series 2.2 Cu.
