How is oven secured so it cannot move around on brackets
1853257
I returned the brackets since I found the brackets not secure enough to support the microwave once it was installed.

They supply a double sided , very sticky and padded squares for the bracket and the bottom of the oven. Believe me, it goes no where

It doesn't secure to the brackets, unfortunately. I had to lay a wooden shelf on the brackets and put the microwave on top to make it not wobbly. I didn't receive any sticky pads with my brackets ...

Hi J.P.,It is secured with small sticky tabs. You should definitely consider buying more heavy duty double sided tape just to be sure.

This can be made to lock in place at the bottom. If you look at the stock photo you will see two white tabs at the bottom. These tabs goes on your oven door with foam tape. I decided not to use it and I've had this for over a year and my son who is now over 2 years old has never pulled it or pushed it out and he's a pretty active and curious child. It has worked wonderfully for us.

Check the "door hooks". They are the little plastic hooks sticking out of the door when you open it. They're both mounted on a plastic strip (that you can't see), and they should move easily. If they seem sluggish, spray just a little silicon spray on the top one and work it up and down. That should make them move easily, and that should solve the problem. When they are all gummed up (for some reason), they don't fully disengage the safety switch when the door is closed, so the oven shuts off. Had same problem -- solved.

No. I used to have a Black and Decker that did have this feature. It was always a problem through because it would get sticky and then the rack would not slide out easily. I was cleaning it all the time. Eventually a fuse blew out and ruined the mechanism. So this time I looked for a toaster oven that did not have that feature. We have been very happy with the PS.

Initially I hung it over my door. Maybe because I open my door so quickly that it would lift up a little on the bottom and move around each time I opened and closed my door. A friend of mine tied a white twisty wire from the pantry shelf unit to the pantry door know to secure it on the bottom half without having to mount it ( thereby not drilling holes ). I went ahead and drilled holes and secured it to my door - it's wonderful and never moves !

The bracket has to be modified and the old mounting hardware adapted. If I had to do it again I would search for an exact replacement. My wife was afraid of it once she looked in the oven and saw the way it was mounted (weeks later and after she had used it). I ended up buying her a new oven to keep her happy!

The handle is metal with a heat resistant silicon grip. It is not oven safe.

It must be placed on some type of baking sheet, not directly on the oven shelf.

I'm not sure. My situation changed and the oven is not being used. However the controls are on top so there would have to be visibility and access there.

We have the safety first front oven lock as well as this one too on our oven. (Double oven). Both have been working really well. These ones however for cabinets we've had to replace here and there but I do really like this product. Especially if your cabinets are like ours where we couldn't put in a more permanent safety hook/lock. The stove use was a bonus. We had to pull the stove out slightly so we could stick one side on the oven door and the other to the side of the oven. You cut the connecting piece to size.

I like knowing they are there so as to protect the bottom of the oven. I had to cut mine to fit inside am very happy with it, you can remove them, wash them off and put back in. Its a small price to pay for good item, i would recommend getting them. You will be happy with your decision.

We have a gas oven, and use it on the lowest rack. I think they don't want you to put it on the floor of the oven so that it doesn't block the natural convection currents in the oven. You may get uneven heating if you do that.

you use a drywall mount in the middle. However, if you hit the stud on the two main mounts - that is strong enough to hold it with the pans on it.

This unit is a powder coated metal of some flavor, there are no holes for mounting you want to permanently lock it to your set up, but I use it for my audio console for mixing music and live events. I simply put the unit under the edge of the console and it holds it well. The bottom sections have a rolled / folded section so that is puts the console up on a bit of an angle. I have also used it for two laptops. I hope that answer helps.

You technically could go without the brackets but it will eventually slip. I highly recommend the brackets.

The edge of my countertop is not bull nosed, so I can't speak to that. Does it move, shift or slide? Yes, during kneading, rolling out pastries or dough, it does move because it isn't permanently secured. I still love it, and prefer working on it rather than on the granite. Hope that helps you.

It is hazardous to place metal objects be placed in microwave ovens. A wire rack would be just such an object, so they are never standard equipment.
