GE JX7230DLBB Optional 30 inch Built-In Trim Kit for Microwave

We have Ikea cabinets, and installed the microwave in a high cabinet, above a GE oven. Didn't have to worry about the cutout, since the cabinet has adjustable shelves, and the sizing of it was perfect. We installed it together with my boyfriend, was very easy, straightforward, and took us probably 20 minutes. The last step, when you screw the trim to the brackets, I recommend using a magnetic screwdriver, otherwise the screw can fall in the hole. We left 1 inch gap between the bottom of microwave trim, and the top of the oven for ventilation, as recommended, and just put a trim there from Ikea, to match the cabinet. I would have been happier without it, but not a big deal. I only give 4 star, because the trim kit was quite expensive.

I had to replace my 8 year old GE microwave & trim kit. This trim kit was ALL plastic to replace the ALL metal one I had.
