Kitchen Job

That you get what you pay for. You want a microwave to last, you're likely not going to pay $100 for it.

The vented heat is less than 100 degrees. It will not get any hotter than what is being exhausted. Again, it is not an issue. And even at that is is for a very shore period of time compared to what an oven belches out.

Nothing to be happy about. It was never a concern.

If your microwave gets hot on the outside, you've set your food on fire.

That is pretty much it in a nut shell.

I did. I bought an iSpring 6 stage water filter in April 2012. It had a one year warranty. Last year it developed a leak in one of the filter caps (seven years after the warranty expired). I contacted iSpring to buy a replacement part, and without being asked they sent me a complete main filter unit (three filter cases with the cap they screw into) completely free of charge. That was definitely more than I paid for.

As always, you're wrong. Microwaves have to vent. If they aren't allowed to, they _will_ overheat. Its no different than any other electronics. If they're not used in the environment they've designed for, they won't last long.

That is correct, microwaves do need to vent. But as long as air can move away/out of a "partially" closed in area the venting is not restricted and not an issue.

...and that is all that any of us meant from the very first time the question was raised. Sure took a long time to get here. :-O

OK, ;~) I suppose this picture may shed some more light on the subject. LOL

This is the microwave cubby and the insert that I will be placing in side that reduce the over all width by 1", 1/2" on each side and over all height by 1", 1/2" on top and bottom.

And this will slide in place to frame out the opening and give a more finished look to the opening.

Looks great. Everything does. I'm sure the client is very happy.

What are you going to do with all your spare time? :-)

That's not anything like what I was visualizing.

Thank you!

Remember Nailshooter? He and his significant other want me to build a hutch.

Then my wife wants a Murphy bed for one of our guest bed rooms and then redo our kitchen to be like the Kitchen I just finished.

LOL I thought the better angle picture would help out.

And the final piece to the puzzle installed.

Nice! But it's not all white. Every kitchen is gloss white today, isn't it?

What else?
