So I'm back on this topic...the horrible Furrion microwave in our 2018 297RSDS Reflection. I took some of your advice(s) and purchased a Samsung unit to replace the Furrion. I opened the box, inspected it, and pawed through the instructions. Although it is an excellent unit, there is no way to put anything else in our trailer except the same crappy Furrion unit. Our trailer has the kitchen area in the passenger side slideout (see attached pic). Therefore there is no cabinet over the microwave to bolt any other unit in using standard mounting procedures. Our Furrion unit is held in place by 5 "woodscrews" along the top front edge(see attached pic with 5 red dots), not the 3 standard mounting bolts. The new Samsung unit, nor any other unit I can find, allows for this type of mounting. I just replaced the door switches, AGAIN, and now the unit will click and the clock will start to count down but nothing turns on. I'm at wits end and ready to dump the whole thing. I have a list a full page long of things I've had to fix/replace on this trailer...axles, springs, drawer glides and their mounts, cabinet floors, toilet, etc. It's never ending. So that rant being done, has ANYBODY replaced the microwave in this trailer model with something else? And if so, how did you accomplish the framing to mount it with the standard microwave 3-bolt mounting system? The only option seems to be to get a counter type of unit and move it every time we head down the road.
