Could NOT agree more!!

LOL. My thoughts exactly. Now I need to find another gentleman to assist my son in lifting into place.

The dashed lines are the actual width and depth of the microwave. You are meant to cut on the dashed lines. Just make sure that if your cabinets face frame hangs past the side of your cabinet by 1/4" or so that you scoot the template over that amount. Good luck!

I noticed the same thing. So, for recirculating, should the vent be pointing to the front of the unit as it started, or towards the ground like it was at the end?

​@@ytekleab CONFIRMED - he accidentally replaced the turbofan unit back into the turbofan chamber with the vents pointing DOWNWARD (back in the video) which is an INVALID ORIENTATION - in that orientation, the fan output would be blocked by the metal bottom of the fan chamber and the fan would likely malfunction. He corrects this error without acknowledging it (see below): You can confirm in the video at time index = 14:52 that the turbofan unit in the original and proper RECIRCULATE position to push air forward shows the ORANGE LABEL on his unit is visible on the left side. At 14:59 after showing the other two options, he swaps the cable back over in order to return to the RECIRCULATE position, but instead of the ORANGE LABEL showing, it's now rotated with the fan so the turbo-exhaust is BLOCKED by the bottom of the fan chamber (down) and ORANGE LABEL is NOT visible on camera and thus incorrect position. **HOWEVER, the camera was turned off and he corrected it. When the camera comes back up at time index = 16:03, after he had replaced the cover you can see part of the ORANGE LABEL through the slit of the cover which means he turned it back to the correct recirculate orientation off-camera. He did not admit his mistake. So, in answer to your question, YES the turbo ducts should be facing towards the front (down in the video) to push the air forward to the front-middle ducts for recirculate mode. Despite the error (and unadmitted correction), it was a good video. The error should not affect anyone except those who want to remove and relocate the oven from an outside circulation to a RECIRCULATE mode - the video could confuse those cases.

Thank you so much!! I was so confused. I think I have to take it back down and make sure it is correct 😢. I am still confused, but hopefully, through your explanation, I can be confident I won't blow up anything. I had only gone to this video for the fan explanation. Unfortunately, I didn't see your explanation until after we finished installing it. What a bummer. I will have to take it all down and make sure. Also, do I need to slide in the flap if mine is recirculating? Or do I just not even use it since there is no outside duct? We slid it in. Should I take it off. Any advice would be a blessing I am afraid of using it until I recheck it. Also, it the new microwave supposed to have that same smell when you turn on the heater after summer?

You can make one easily by lining up a sheet of paper to the back of the unit before installing. For the top as well, or just measure the two support holes locations.

Watch the video backwards.

Since the pros are charging an average of $400 to replace our microwave. I told my husband that I will do it. I think it will be a fun DYI project for me. This video was great!
