Unfortunately, the kitchen was designed to fit the old model and not this new one. We were desperate and gave this shot. Fortunately, we managed to wedge it into the old space--which turned out to be just barely, barely big enough. My only concern is there is really no venting available for this thing because it's tightly surrounded by cabinetry. It fits like a glove, but I'm not sure how long it will last based on our space.
The microwave itself works great. I echo the comments from others that the open button sounds cheap and loud. Kind of clunky. Also the timer on the microwave only beeps once. The previous model it would beep every few seconds until you turned it off. After missing it a couple times, we've started using a regular kitchen time instead.
This model doesn't seem to cook food as good as the other. It takes longer. Both had auto cook buttons & the new doesn't cook food "done" when using those special keys. Potatoes are the worst. I have to cook them twice. The older model had easy, 1-step cooking....Push "potato" & it cooked a potato completely. If I cooked 1, 2, 3, or 4 potatoes it compensated for that & cooked any quantity correctly. This one takes at least 2 cycles or else the potatoes are hard & not completely done..... Old model, Vegetables - push one button & keep pushing once, twice, thrice, for "fresh" "canned" or "frozen"...this new model, push vegetable button & look at chart in door & then press another number key for 1 - fresh, 2 - canned, or 3 - frozen..... Old model push "reheat" & it cooked the food done, hot & ready, no matter a single item, or plate or liquid......This one you push "reheat" & then 1 for pizza, 2 for plate, 3 soup, 4 pasta, etc...tedious & you have to look at the chart sticker inside the door b/c you can't remember all the choices. For that reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I was comparing it to the original model we had...This may function like a lot of similar microwaves but my old GE Profile model had easy 1-button commands that cooked the food as it should be cooked.
A big complaint we have is there is one very WEAK (dim) light in the interior so you can't see inside the oven while cooking. If something is bubbling over, good luck b/c you will have a hard time seeing it.
We purchased this & the other for a specific reason. I wanted a built in microwave oven. Due to double convection wall ovens there was no cabinet space in a standard oven cabinet. I needed a smaller size. This is a counter top model with a trim kit (purchased separately - approx. $18. Not available on Amazon). Original purchase for old model incl trim kit was from Lowe's Home Improvement. The Amazon price for this microwave is the same price as Lowe's & delivers fast. Lowe's was 2-week delivery & had to do store pick up. This came a day earlier than promised, on Easter Sunday no less, but was promised 3-day delivery & it was here in 2 days, front door delivery, yay, Amazon!
As mentioned, this is a counter top model with a trim kit available to give the appearance of a built in microwave. It is very attractive in that sense. It will fit in a 12" overhead cabinet. Instead of just having a cabinet box hole or shelf to set a microwave on, you can put this one in the hole & use the trim kits that is similar to a picture frame & surrounds the oven with a nice frame making it "built-in".....If I can take a photo with my phone & come back to this review I will add a picture. I'm typing the review from my laptop.

Installation: yes, the dimensions are BASICALLY the same - close enough to fit into our existing space. However, the mounting holes are not in the same place (of course), which made for some re-drilling of holes. After a little trial and error :-( we got them in the right place. The larger problem is that the spot where the cord attaches to the microwave is MUCH deeper than the older model. Therefore we could not initially position the microwave flush with our cabinets (as our last micro had been). We had to cut a small hole in the back of the cabinet and drywall in order to accommodate the depth of the cord attachment. But we eventually got it into position securely, in the same space as our last micro, and then we push the button to open the door. Surprise! The door hinge design is not the same as the old micro and while the door does open, it only opens about a quarter of the way, doesn't open the whole way without a push - it rubs against the cabinet on the left. At this point, seeing as we had no other options, we decided to live with it. Surprisingly we are getting used to pushing the door open by hand.
Use: works great, just like its supposed to do. It is VERY quiet, which was a nice surprise. Heats foods more quickly and evenly than our old model for sure (again, what its supposed to do IMHO). But it sure gets messy looking rather quickly, as the finish shows every single fingerprint, on the touchpad and the door.
Because of the difficult install and the finish that shows EVERYTHING, I'm giving it 3 stars. If I were to rate on the use alone, I'd give it 4 stars.
