“I'm replacing an old built-in Advantium 120 (SCB1000). The cutout dimensions are almost an exact match to the PSB9120SFSS, but I was told I'd need to purchase a separate $500 trim kit, nonetheless. Doesn't the oven include all necessary built-in trim?”

Hi Vinny, that answer is correct because I had the older the Advantium, it was probably 17 years old never had a problem with it. The problem was there was no parts available to fix the existing microwave. I had to first have an electrician take the 220 line down to a 110 line because it was more expensive to buy the 220, I originally ordered a trim kit for the microwave but that did not work because it’s really not for the ADvantium no difference in the size if I remember correctly. I eventually found the trim kit myself because the salesman did not know about it. This was an ongoing problem for a few months trying to get the right microwave for the cabinet. The kit is actually an accessory drawer to fill in the space in the height of the microwave otherwise it does fit the width. It was challenging but finally it works. If you want I can send you a picture of what it looks like the biggest problem was it did not come in black because my GE oven is black so it’s stainless steel and that’s the only choice. I hope this answers helpful it will be easier for you if you don’t have the cabinet and get a different microwave but I like my Advantium and I am happy Do you have finally filled the hole in the wall correctly. For me it was a five month ordeal by the time we finally got everything situated. But at least now they know what to do to fill the gap.Good luck and happy new year if you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi Vinnie, don’t know if you got my first response. I just wanted to let you know that Best Buy did an excellent job trying to help me resolve my fit for my new Advantium microwave. Not too many appliance stores would be as helpful as my sales person Brad was. I purchased all of my appliances from Best Buy, for that reason. Don’t know if I put my name on the last one response. I do enjoy my new Advantium. Pam
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Just wanted to follow up and confirm that the PSB9120SFSS did indeed fit the old SCB1000 cutout and covered all the old mounting screw holes. I installed it myself, as installation services were not available in my area. All you do is install the bottom trim, shove the oven in the cutout (with the help of a friend), and install the mounting screws. You may have to fish your power cable in advance depending on where your AC outlet is located. Hope this helps and thanks to all who answered!
