Hi Mouse- There are a variety of countertop microwaves available; however, only select models can be installed in a cabinet for a built-in look. To convert built-in capable countertop microwaves into a built-in microwave, a 27" or 30" wide trim kit will be needed and sold separately. Model JES2051SNSS is intended for countertop use and is not compatible with a trim kit. We suggest our GE Profile™ Series 2.2 Cu. Ft. Built-In Sensor Microwave Oven PEB7227SLSS. It is compatible with GE® Required 27" Built-In Trim Kit JX7227SLSS and GE® Required 30" Built-In Trim Kit JX7230SLSS. We encourage you to view Quick Specs for details including cabinet cutout dimensions: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=PEB7227SL_BL_R2_17.pdf - Thanks for choosing GE!

Yes and Yes. I installed mine into the same trim kit that had been around my old one. Instructions said I would need a new trim kit but I didnt. If you have one already installed with a trim kit, measure it and get a microwave with dimensions that fit your old one.
