My microwave has died at age 14, so I'm looking to replace it.
Question: does the microwave in an RV necessarily have to be an "RV" microwave. (Some microwaves are marketed as "RV microwaves".) Or can I use any residential above-the-range microwave if it fits the hole?
My old microwave was a Domestic, 950 watt, 21 3/4" wide, in a 22" hole.
did you look to see if it could be repaird first. mine wasnt that old but it died , a new RV one was 450.00 couldnt find one that was the right size that I could just screw the trim to, so found a local apliance repair who does diagnostics for 50 bucks. then if you get the work done they take that off the total. for mine it ended up being a cheep plug they just replaced and it is back in service for 59 bucks.
