Hi Cassie, This is Lisa from GE Appliances. Thank you for your interest. I am happy to help. Over the range microwaves are installed between cabinets, and can be installed against a wall. They cannot be used on a counter or shelf or a closed cabinet or cut-out space where the bottom is covered. Built in microwaves can be installed on the counter as long as 3 inches are provide on the sides and top and one inch in the rear. The front should sit at least 3 or more inches back on the counter to avoid tipping. They can also be built into a cabinet with a trim kit. Microwave trim kits are designed to provide a built-in look while also providing air flow necessary to the microwave. A trim kit consists of the trim frame, as well as ducts that encase and attach to the microwave inside the cabinet cut-out. It is important to only use the trim kit designed for that model. I hope this helps. Thank you for choosing GE Appliances.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
