We installed the new microwave ourselves. We already had an above the range microwave prior to this one, so we just googled how to install it to make sure we had what we needed, turned off the power while we did it, unscrewed the old microwave, took it out and then installed the new one. There is a metal bracket that sits on the back wall for the microwave to hook onto. That did need to be switched out for ours because the hooks lined up a little different place than our old one. The new microwave should come with a template to mark where the holes need to be screwed on the cabinet to install the new microwave. I would suggest having 2 people do it because it was a little heavy for one person to do on their own. I also recommend having something like a rectangle shaped laundry basket or a solid box to place (upside down) on the stovetop so nothing gets dropped on the stove to break it. It also provides something to set the microwave on if you need to set it down instead of having to move it away from your install location.
