A:AnswerRemove the exhaust hood, make sure the exhaust system isnt restricted. While mine was running it was producing almost 80dB! removing my exhaust reduced it almost to a whisper (Something in the exhaust hood was pinning the flap if using external venting).
When the exhaust is restricted it runs very loud, if the exhaust is restricted the fan speed increases. Wish their manuals was mor.e descriptive than saying noise while running is normal
A:AnswerHi Marty,
I am happy to help. All of our new over the range models are slightly taller than your current models. The good news is that It will fit in the same space. You will need to use the mounting brackets that come with the new model. I hope this helps. Thank you for checking with us.

A:AnswerYes it can. Instructions on which way the fan motor should be turned. I think it ships this way for outside venting. Very easy to turn fan motor. I switched it to recirculating, because I didn't have access above kitchen to put a vent duct to the outside.
A:AnswerI dont know what an endless time is, but you put in the time you want. It has express buttons so if I want 2 minutes on high I just hit 2, etc. But you can set to whatever power for however long you wish also.
A:AnswerDear Nacki - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and I am happy to help you. This microwave model JVM3160DFBB is an over-the-range microwave and is not designed to be built into the cabinet. If you would like to replace your JE1860GB built-in microwave, then we recommend model PEB7226DF. You will need to use the new trim kit but should not have to change your cabinet opening. I hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!

A:AnswerThere are usually just 2 screws for suspending the microwave from the upper cabinet, so measure carefully (triple measure if needs be to be sure). Measure the distance out from the back wall and the distance in from the sides. Same for the hole for passing the cord up through. If you are a little bit off on your holes , enlarge them in the direction needed to avoid cross threading the bolts in the case-mounted nuts. Possibly use large washers if you had to enlarge the hole(s) much , a.k.a. "fender washers". If you REALLY screw up the holes, you will have to add a small board inside the upper cabinet of a piece of sheet metal most of the way across with holes in the right place. You could also carefully measure the locations of the old holes relative to the back and cabinet sides at your old location in your particular case.
A:AnswerWe have it over Samsung's slide in gas range NX58H9500W and they almost look they they're part of the same series of appliances. This is a pricey convection range with an elongatedd center burner that comes with a removable griddle top. So far I like it very much. It is all flush with the counter, clear back to the wall--no raised area with the controls. My kitchen is tiny--this provides more workable space on the cooktop and provides an illusion of a little more space in the kitchen. And I have a pretty tile border backspash which isn't covered by this range. Controls are on the front so it may not be appropriate for a household with little kids--although I think the electronic controls for the oven might include a lock?
A:AnswerFirst, the size probably meets fire code in some jurisdiction. You need to meet local code so you can adjust to your locality.
In addition, the space allows you to maneuver the microwave if your template following us less than optimal.
A:AnswerI bought it at the store through their website. I told a sales representative the model, he ordered it through the website, and it was delivered to my door. You may be able to call the store and order it?
