Nope, it’s great and we have no complaints, even with a 6’5” hubby and 6’0” son.

Hi, K R. If you happen to see this, could you please tell me how far your counter overhangs (from cabinet face), and also if the counter also overhangs the face of the microwave?

Our kitchen designer has the counter overhang set at 1 and 1/2" (from cabinet), but with overlay doors, only 5/8" overhanging the door fronts.  

I don't want the microwave controls to be hard to access with too much overhang, if we choose to increase it, but also do not want any spills or drips going straight onto the top of the microwave. (I am not certain of the depth of the face of the microwave.)

Are you able to shed any light on finding the overhang sweet spot for these tip-out control microwave drawers? 

Thanks!

I am concerned abiut pkacement of

We moved into our new build 4 months ago. No issues with the Sharp MW drawer. The flip down panel works great and is easy to read and use. My 83/84 y.o. parents had no problems using it when they visited.

In my previous house I had installed the Wolf branded version when I did a kitchen remodel and it was awful without that tilt down panel, close to impossible to read the vertical panel unless you bent down.

Learnt my lesson and got the Sharp version this time around.

@Marya A: "please tell me how far your counter overhangs..."

See page 3 of the Installation Manual.

Who is this salesperson? What are they trying to talk you into instead of the Sharp MW drawer?

I've been on these forums for a long time and have 2 new kitchens in 5 years ... if people were having issues with this appliance we would be seeing complaints on this forum.
