It might be little bigger than standard cabinet. Might not work inside cabinet. Again depends on depth of the cabinet.

Hello Jay - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. We're sorry, however, an over-the-range microwave is not approved for use to be built-in. Not only is the exhaust on the bottom of the microwave, there are also cooktop lights. Nor would the unit have proper air flow. We're sorry for your inconvenience. Thanks for checking with us!

This unit does not have a convection oven feature. If you aren't using the vent, you could build it into a wall or even place it on the counter, but the footing on the counter may not be sufficiently stable.

Just buy a unit without the "over-the-range" features - e.g. exhaust grills and lights - and spend the money you save on having it installed by a professional. I don't think it's a good idea to buy a great appliance knowing that you are going to "wall in" some of its design features.
