Can this be used under a cabinet? Some specify that they release heat through the top & aren't suitable for under-cabinet use but this one doesn't say

I have mine sitting on top of my microwave under overhead cabinets with approximately 6 inches between oven & cabinet & have no issues.

I returned mine as it arrived with smashed-broken glass front panel ergo can't comment.

recommended only if the space behind the cabinet vents to some open space. otherwise, the cooler will overheat.

Hello. It does give off steam. The instruction manual does state not to put the warmer under cabinets while in use, as it could cause damage. I had to do a little rearranging, and I keep mine on a cabinetless counter. If needed, you could pull it out and away from the cabinets while in use, then push it back to store.

I think it would not be deep enough once you closed it under the cabinet. If you left it open(hanging down) there is a possibility that would work. But this item cost too much money to try that if it does not work. Do you have a Container Store? They have a lot of items that may work for under cabinet storage. You can find them online also. Good luck.

Yes. The cabinet is always cool to the touch. Very good source of supplemental heat. I ran two last winter, sometimes around the clock, with no problems.

The top of the cabinet doors beneath prevent them from opening a full 90 degrees. I have mine adjusted so they don't make contact with those doors.

You can put it anywhere you want. If it is an enclosed cabinet I would make sure that there is enough ventilation. (see last post) If there isn't, heat will build up and the components in the cabinet will not last as long. When I am home I have my TV and Tuner on from when I get home from work to when I go to bed. Heat builds up and a cooling fan was a great solution to the heat build up. I'm no Amazon electronics wiz bang, just my 2 cents. Good luck.

can this also be used as a under counter bread box? Mounted on your upper cabinet, underneath?

I looked at the instructions and it specifically says "Do NOT mount over sinks or stoves" - it's # 24 on their list of warnings. Also it states that you need to mount the power supply and line cord "Outside of cabinet in all installations" for what it's worth. They do get fairly hot as these are halogen/xenon bulbs so you might want to look at led type lighting kits.

I don't think you could mount it under a cupboard because it has and vent on the top and there is nothing there to attach it to. Personally I hate mine and would not recommend it to anyone.

I would not use it under a desk as heat rises and may cause some concerns. It is quiet indeed. I use mine along a wall and it does a terrific job.

I don't think so. The paper towel holder is meant to be held against a flat surface, a flat vertical surface. If you were to put it under a cabinet it might work but the paper towels would be dangling; it would be awkward .

Yes it can be installed under the cabinet. The only consideration would be to assure that your screws don't go through the cabinet and poke through. You could purchase smaller screws as their is only one size in package.

The manual doesn't say anything about clearances. This model is not meant to be built-in to cabinetry, recessed or put underneath a counter. Additionally this model is not meant to be used in an enclosed area. While the back of the hit does produce a minimal amount of heat, it still need to vent to an open area.

Do NOT tightly enclose this adapter in anything that can act like a thermal insulator (e.g. a stuffed elephant). It needs some free air around it to keep from overheating and burning out or burning up. Sitting free above a cabinet is fine.

As shipped - it's 18 inches tall, so it won't fit under your cabinets, BUT, it does have removable / adjustable feet, so you could take them off to gain extra room. You will need to allow for some airflow under the unit to reach the bottom mounted exhaust fan if you do so however. It would be a tight fit, but with some modification, you could make it work.

Yes it could be mounted under a cabinet. It can be mounted horizontal or vertical. We put them up vertically on the wall. The are fantastic at allowing using only one hand to grab a paper towel, the friction is set perfect. Mounting to the wall must use anchors to secure hold since will be pulling on it - unless the wall is solid wood or screwing into a stud. TIP: When mounting under a cabinet because of the narrow depth of cabinet bottoms, suggest taking a block of wood and mounting that block underneath cabinet first by using screws inside cabinet down into the block, then the paper towel holder can be firmly mounted to the block (painted or stained - the small craft plaques like from Hobby Lobby or Michael's are perfect for this use). Use counter-sink screws the ones that go down into surface so the screw is not sticking out.
