My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Microwave in Kitchen Island

12 years ago
This looks like a Sharp Microwave. Can a microwave in a kitchen island be bolted in so it does not move when opening the door manually?

    The microwave drawer does not open manually - it works like a drawer with an open and close button. It is all done mechanically - very stable...

    Thanks for writing back. We have a sharp microwave that does both. You can pull the handle to open it or push a button to have it done mecanically. My main question really had nothing to do with the opening and closing of this microwave. I just really wanted to know if it could be bolted in to the island.
