What Size Over-the-Range Microwave Should You Get?
The size of your over-the-range microwave depends on your specific needs and the available space in your kitchen. It’s also important to note that your microwave width should be the same measurement as your range or cooktop. For example, if you have a 30-inch wide cooktop, you’ll want a 30-inch wide OTR microwave. Remember to also allow for proper ventilation and clearance around the microwave. Considering these factors will help you select an over-the-range microwave that fits your kitchen and meets your cooking requirements.
