A:AnswerThe model is not the problem. The size of your cabinet and the size of the old trim that goes over the microwave, I found, is more of a problem. Measure the old microwaves dimensions, Height, Width, and length or depth. But height and width is most important because your cabinet may be limited in these two dimensions. The depth normally will not be a problem. Then measure the new microwave you want to purchase and try to get one the same height and width so your old trim will fit the new microwave. Unless you do not care what the new trim you have to purchase for the new microwave looks like. Then all you have to worry about is will the new microwave fit into your cabinet space.
A:AnswerScrew GE - they will always answer that the trim kit is model specific and you have to buy their new kit. Buy a new trim kit off of ebay for just a little over $100. It is ridiculous that the older trim kits do not fit the new ones. That is why our landfills are full.
A:AnswerHi there - this is a great question! We're sorry to hear that your previous microwave died after 21 years, but we are glad you're reaching out to inquire about a new one! This model, #PEB7227DLBB, is comparable to your other microwave in overall height and overall width, as well as microwave watts (it is a bit larger in overall depth, at 19.75" compared to 17.8"). It's also important to know what size trim kit you have, though. The two size options are 27" and 30" and those trim kit model numbers for the new microwave are JX7227DLBB and JX7230DLBB, respectively. We hope this helps! Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns. Best, Kelsey@GEA
A:AnswerHey there, and thanks for checking in. We can advise model PEB7227DLBB has two compatible trim kit options, depending on the size needed - JX7227DLBB and JX7230DLBB.

A:AnswerGreetings,
We appreciate your interest in this amazing microwave! We have found that this model will fit in the exact same cutout as your Monogram model. We hope this is helpful. Keep in touch! Mike@GEA
A:AnswerNo, you need to purchase separately., and you must purchase the set specifically for this microwave. Other ovens even from GE each seem to have their own built in kit.
A:AnswerHey Roger. My replacement is being delivered in about 30 mins. I can let you know how it works out. This one was the closest one I could find to what I had which was 20 years old. It took 2 months for it to come in.
A:AnswerHi 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.
A:AnswerScrew GE - they will always answer that the trim kit is model specific and you have to buy their new kit. Buy a new trim kit off of ebay for just a little over $100. It is ridiculous that the older trim kits do not fit the new ones. That is why our landfills are full.

A:AnswerThe PCWK22U1WBB is the comparable replacement model in the black finish. The PCWK22U1WDD is the comparable replacement for the previous stainless model like PEB7226SF2SS. The new models use the same built-in kit as the PEB7227AN4DD. -Vikki@GEAppliances
A:AnswerThis PCWK22U1WBB model would make a great replacement for your current model! We can confirm that your current trim kit (either JX7227DLBB for 27” cabinets or JX7230DLBB for 30” cabinets) is compatible with this model. Lauren@GEAppliances
A:AnswerYes, this PCWK22U1WDD model can replace your current model as it has the same dimensions. It is compatible with the same trim kits as well. As long as your trim kit is one of the following models, it is compatible: JX7227BLTS (Black Stainless); JX7230BLTS (Black Stainless); JX7227FMDS (Black Slate); JX7230FMDS (Black Slate); JX7227SLSS (Stainless steel); JX7230SLSS (Stainless steel); JX7227ELES (Slate); JX7230ELES (Slate). Lauren@GEAppliances
A:AnswerThis is a comparable replacement in terms of size, features and capacities. If your existing model is built-in, you will need the new 27" - JX7227DLB or the 30" - JX7230DLBB as your existing kit is not compatible with the new microwave. To determine which size you need, measure the overall width of your microwave including the trim on each side.
A:AnswerHey there - we appreciate you taking the time to ask this question. We recommend the Gray version of the microwave, since this is the model that would work with your current trim kit. -- If you prefer the Black version, please keep in mind you would need a new trim kit for that model. -- We hope this response was insightful, and please let us know if we can help with anything else. Take care. -- Pablo@GEA
A:AnswerIt should work, I replaced the same microwave and I also had existing trim kit from my previous microwave, as long as it is the same model type should work
