Received this item. Looks great but the maximum distance between the arms is quite narrow. My microwave is much wider than this. Are the feet really supposed to go in those grooves? Is this bracket only for tiny microwaves? I've never seen a microwave...

Mine is full of Calphalon cookware and big cookbooks. I am not sure it is wide enough to put a microwave on.

Yes, my microwave is even fairly small and it fits. Agree with LM that it does probably take a bit longer. This item is wonderful!

it measures 13 and 1/4 inches from front to back, but the front feet are 10 1/2" from the back, so you should have and extra 1 1/2" of shelf in front of the feet of the microwave. It should fit without any fear of it not sitting properly.

You have to hve the space and a door to cover it. I have two custom cabinets next to the microwave with about 5 in gap and 40 in tall, so this fits perfect. Although it was apain to install as there is no much room to work with it.Raul

Unfortunately, no. Chances are you may be able to find the accessory elsewhere. If you haven't found a sized match to the microwave model, my impression is you'll be searching for something slightly bigger, likely around 12in or greater.

The feet do not appear to be removeable. They only measure about 1/8th of an inch. My microwave's height is 9 and 7/8 inches.

the frame you see in the photo does not attach to the microwave, it attaches to the opening. There are other parts not shown in the photo which are secured to the side and under the microwave that keep it secure on shelf and lined up with the trim. Here's a link to the installation manual that will probably explain it better. http://shop.panasonic.com/docs/installation-manual/TrimKitInstallation_TK621.pdf

The installation guide that is contained in the instruction manual reads: For correct operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 8" of space above the microwave, 4" at the back, and 2" on each side of the unit. I hope that this helps you! Best, Steve Antrasian

I have a very tiny kitchen, with very limited counter spaces the microwave needed to sit in a small utility table. I would have liked.a little larger one. The dimensions are a little smaller than stated, they 18 W 12 1/2 D 11 H.My problem was the first one that was sent to me didn't work, I had to return it. I'm am elderly so that turned out to be a real hassle for me. The second one ,so far, works very well. It's a bit more tinny than I would have liked. Hope this helps with your decision.

The inside flat platform just before the water grooves is 16-3/4" deep x 21" wide. Check the bottom of your microwave to see where the "dimpled feet" are located, including the dimple diameter as it may simply fit within the water grooves on the top which are about 5/8" wide and help the microwave from moving on the top and lock in. Around the outside of the water grooves, you will have another 7/8" of wooden top surrounding the surface. The overall outside dimensions of the wooden top is 19-3/4" deep x 23-15/16" wide.

Speak with the manufacturer and see if they can send you a smaller bracket. Otherwise you might have to upgrade your monitor or return the arm.

Basically they recommend the increased depth so that the microwave doesn't overheat. If it doesn't have space to breath it could get too hot. also, check out the parts included I.e. tray the microwave sits on... They may also be deeper than 16"

Jeanne, you need to measure the diameter of the "round track" that the dish sits on. There are different diameter microwave dishes, not all will work for you.

To be honest I don't know because when I bought this and it arrived it was the cheapest most awful hunk of junk ever. When I attempted to put it together the wood split in two different places and everything was so flimsy I couldn't even get it to stand up. Now normally I would think that it was my own skills or lack there of, but I had just put together a beautiful 6 ft tall cupboard with no problem. My suggestion...whether the microwave will fit or not. Don't buy this. It is so not worth your money!!!

There is a 1"x1" protrusion on the left corner of the back of the microwave, that either protects the cord, or allows air to circulate through the rear vents. If the protrusion wasn't added, the microwave would measure 11 1/2" deep. However, it measures nearly, but not quite, 13" on that left corner. In any case, I think a 12" shelf might be somewhat unstable, as the microwave can slide around. I have a rubber mat under mine to keep it from traveling. And I use a gentle touch opening and closing the door. Other than that, I love the little critter for heating/reheating, popcorn, potatoes--and other simple cooking tasks...Not for gourmet cooking in my opinion.

Not really sure what the question is. It is quite narrow in my opinion. Too narrow for most pizzas.
