Are the shelves big enough fit a toaster oven or microwave?

Depends on the size, but likely not without the appliance hanging over the edge. 12 1/2 inches usable depth. Toaster ovens like the Black & Decker CTO6335S are 12.4 inches deep, so it MAY fit, but most will not.

The shelves are certainly sturdy enough for that duty. You need to measure your appliances and match them up with this unit. There are also other units that are different sizes. One of them will almost certainly fit.

If you check the listing online you will see the dimensions 23.9 x 4.4 x 13.5 inches. The posts are set on the inside corners and not on the outside of the shelf. If you are setting something wide on the shelf the maximum usable space is really 21 inches across and about 12.5 inches deep.

The opening for the microwave is 21 1/2 inches wide (long) x 14 1/2 inches high and 15 and 1/2 inches deep. My microwave fit but I chose to put a toaster oven in that space.

Yes, the average size microwave will fit and it is definitely sturdy enough. I keep various small appliances on the rack and find it to be very sturdy.

I have it packed with books, cds, etc. I also have lots of things on top. Depending on size of microwave, I'm sure it will hold it.

I just tried a frozen loaf of Nature's Own Whole Grain; and it did not fit (maybe if the bread wasn't frozen, I could possibly fit two loaves without being too squished. Maybe French or Italian loaves that aren't so high might fit. I use the shelves for my dish towels, rags, hot pads, plastic wrap, foil, etc. and they work wonderfully.

I am using mine as 'drawers' for a tall set of deep shelves in my apartment kitchen. They are each filled with 'stuff' and have never seen the oven yet! But I can see no reason why they would not work well in my stove if I chose to use them for their 'standard' purpose.

That's the exact same toaster oven model that I have and yes, all pieces fit in it perfectly (they're actually a bit smaller than the inside dimensions of the oven so there's space around each piece: they're not crammed in at all).

No way. I have my makeup and some other things on it, but I have serious doubts it could hold anything as heavy as a microwave. The shelves are glass.

The middle shelf is 15-1/4" Deep X 14-1/2" High X 23-1/2" Wide. Hope this helps. I have a large microwave. I prefer my micro on the top shelf. My son added a nice piece of wood to the back (it can't be seen) by using small metal "L" brackets. He stained the wood & screwed it to the brackets. I have my toaster oven in the center shelf. So, there are variations you can do with this cart, if need be.

Yes. The frame is metal and the shelves wood. I couldn't use it for my microwave because it was too small. I use it to store decorative items, etc.

Shelves are 6x12 and are adjustable. Fits small cookbooks,or small decorative pieces

There's definable room for even a med size microwave but your question wasn't complete so I don't what else you needed to put onto unit. There's plenty of room on the middle and lower shelf too.

I think both of your appliances should fit very well. I had several cartons of Ensure on both shelves, plus trays of cat food, I'm sure weighing more than 30 lb each.

No! I thought you wanted to put microwave in cabinet. Open and closed shelves approximately 11" wide and 15" deep. Works nice as an island. Top is 19X26 1/2. No electrical connection either. Good luck.

Yes it is, that is exactly why we bought it and love it! Microwave fits perfectly and top is perfect for our toaster over. The cabinet is huge and great for storage. Love this piece!

The wooden shelf is 23 1/2 inches wide and 16 inches deep. I don't think this microwave would fit.

The widest shelf is 15.5 inches wide and 11.5 inches tall. If you could find a microwave to fit you might find rack isn't strong enough for the inevitable movement of the rack while opening and closing the microwave door. The rack does have build in brackets for securing to the wall. I couldn't use them due to a chair rail which prevented the rack from setting flush enough to the wall to use those brackets.
