Hello- We appreciate you checking with us. This is an over the range model that can't be built into or mounted in a cabinet. This model is designed to go over a free-standing or slide in range. ~According to Underwriters Laboratories (UL), which approves appliance installations, you cannot use an over-the-range microwave on the counter or in a shelf. Besides not being approved for this installation, these microwaves don't have feet and are also often slanted (not level) on the bottom. Additionally, if the surface lights or vent fan were to be turned on accidentally, it could cause damage to the shelf or microwave. We recommend looking at our models that offer an under cabinet hanging kit. Take a look at the following model: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/ge-1-5-cu-ft-mid-size-microwave-stainless-steel/5527522.p?skuId=5527522 We apologize for your inconvenience and hope this is helpful.
