A:Answer No, this model is designed as a countertop model only. We do not recommend installing it in tight or enclosed spaces, such as a cabinet. It requires 3" of air clearance on both sides and the top, and 1" of clearance at the rear. The front edge of the microwave, measured at the door, should sit at least 3" or more back from the edge of the counter or shelf to help prevent accidental tipping.
