A:AnswerAs long as there is enough space underneath it for airflow plus enough structure to install the rear mounting bracket and a permanent sturdy shelf to put the hanging bolts through to securely suspend it from above.
These are heavy units that require a solid structure behind and directly above them for safe installation.
Personally I wouldn't pay extra for the range hood over the stove model when a countertop model that will fit the cabinet would be a more reasonable option that won't require installation.
A:AnswerHello there. Thank you for your interest in the LG Microwave Oven model MHEC1737F. This model is primarily designed for microwave cooking and may not have specific settings for toasting bread or bagels. It is important to note that microwaves typically do not toast food in the traditional sense as a toaster would.
For toasting bread and bagels, we recommend using a dedicated toaster or toaster oven that is designed specifically for this purpose.

A:AnswerThis microwave uses two 3/8 inch diameter holes in the bottom of the cabinet above it 10-3/16 inches from the wall to support the front of the microwave along with the steel wall bracket that is absolutely required to support the back so don't skip installing the metal bracket. Mine is installed under standard upper cabinets that are 11-3/4 inches deep leaving about 1-1/4 inches between the edge of the head of the hanging bolt and the front edge of the cabinets bottom shelf.
To me the more critical dimension to consider is the 13-3/4 minimum distance between the bottom of the microwave and the stoves burners. Since the microwave is roughly 16-1/4 inches tall that means you need a minimum of 30 inches between the bottom of the cabinet your mounting it under and the top of the stoves burners.
Note that there are a second set of threaded inserts about 1 inch further back in the top of the microwave though they are not marked on the installation template. These could allow installation under cabinets an inch shallower than 11-3/4 inches deep or with a wide front rail under the shelf which you wouldn't want to weaken by drilling or cutting through it. If you already have a 10 or so year old GE mounted under your cabinet there is a good chance you will be able to use your existing wall bracket and all you will have to do is drill new 3/8 inch holes in the bottom of the cabinet for the new hanging bolt locations. The power cord even lined up when I swapped out the old GE with this new LG.
A:AnswerHi there, Flint! Thank you for your question regarding the delivery and installation of the MHEC1737F over-range microwave. Yes, many retailers, including Best Buy, often offer delivery and installation services for over-range microwaves, including this model. It’s important to confirm with the retailer during your purchase to ensure that installation is included or available as an additional service. When installed under a wall cabinet over a countertop, it's essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure proper ventilation and safety.
