Sharp microwave drawer cabinet size for 24'
Comments (13)I sent the sharp specs to the KD and this was his response: " The minimum Requirement for 24" width means that clearance of inside of cabinet has to be at least 24" , a 24" wide cabinet has 22 ¼" clearance and 27" cabinet has 25 ¼" clearance ( because of two ¾" thick sides of each respected cabinets)." This makes no sense because the Sharp specs which say the opening must be 22 1/8" because according to his measurements it would fit! He obviously didn't read the sharp specs I sent him. Is he just difficult or lazy (sorry to vent here, I'm trying to remember why we didn't DIY!) Thanks once again to all you gardenwebbers for teaching me so much and helping me design a kitchen exactly the way *I* want it!...See MoreSharp Microwave Drawer Deflector
Comments (2)This flush mount deflector allows the microwave to be mounted flush with the cabinets next to it. If you don't use the deflector then the microwave sits out from the cabinet about an 1" or so. I did not use the deflector and I have had no problem with condensation....See More24" microwave drawer (Sharp KB6524PSY) in a 30" base cabinet
Comments (14)I thought I would update this thread to bring it to a closure. The contractor who came to install the cabinets was kind enough to install the frame around the current opening even though the cabinet company wanted no part in the microwave installation. All I had to do was to build the base with a couple of plywood panels I had, as shown in the video shared by @wdccruise. The microwave slid-in without any issues. Thank you all for your input....See MoreSharp or Wolf 24" drawer microwave
Comments (2)"The Sharp is actually $500 more than the Wolf." Yes, but those aren't comparable. The Wolf MD24TE/S lists for $2080 while the comparable Sharp KB6524PSY is $1047 though it makes more sense to buy the Sharp SMD2470AS ($1247), the only model with the flip-down control panel visible from above....See Morefirstmmo
