| Old Microwave and Hood The microwave we've had for a long time, but at some point the LCD quit working. More importantly it was sucking up valuable counter space in a kitchen that doesn't have much. The hood was missing the grease filter, but more importantly, the fan didn't work. Ironically, it would have taken less than five minutes to fix the fan, but I never bothered taking it apart when it was up there: there was just a wire missing to the fan switch. Duh. |

| New Microwave/Convection Oven (over the range) This was today's project. I'm not sure how long the manual said it should take, but it took me about 3.5 hours, I think. That includes the time to remove the old one and move the electrical, run to Lowe's for a single outlet box (out), then install the outlet. Zohra helped in the final installation: one-man installation would have been possible, but tricky. |

The other reason we went ahead with this appliance, is that it adds to selling point of the house.
We got it at Lowes btw.
It's 200 dollars cheaper there than anywhere else.
