Inset Bosch Warming Drawer?

14 years ago

I am wondering if it is okay to inset a Bosch Warming Drawer? One of the design features is "Flush to cabinet design perfectly matches our wall ovens and can accept custom wood panels for that "blend-in" look". Does that mean it can be inset? My cabinetmaker checked with his appliance guy and Bosch does not forbid insetting it, but it doesn't say it can be done either. His appliance guy did not recommend it because he worried that the heat could warp the frame. He mentioned that there are some dishwashers that are meant to be inset that they have had problems with warping the frame. My cabinet guy said he can inset it but it would void any warranty with warping issues caused from it. So my question is, do you think the warming drawer might cause the cabinet frame to warp? I feel like there is a lot more heat and moisture coming from a dishwasher than a warming drawer. Help!
