This is the best overall instructional video on microwave oven installation I have seen on YouTube so far. Very detailed and concise. Quite professionally done.

Perfect video. Gorgeous teacher. And then I forgot why I was watching this, oh yeah, to learn how to install a microwave. 😅 thank you for the clear and concise instructions. I feel I can accomplish my install after having watched this video.❤

Thank you SO MUCH. You have given me confidence that I need to … install this microwave at 5:30 in the morning 😂😂

Im in the middle of installing one of these right now by myself and I think I found the right video. I’ve spent half my day attempting this. Lol fingers crossed 🤞

Thanks! Even though ours is a roof vent my husband was able to get some valuable info from this video for our new LG or extended vent
Microwave oven!

[briangasdorf]

Thanks for the video. I always wondered what to do if there wasn’t a vent to the outside of the house. Much appreciated!

Great video! Wish you could come to my home and install mine, lol. I might have to watch your video a few more times. I bought the same microwave, so it does make it a little easier. Thanks again!

[darciherr]

Nice Job explaining everything in detail. Super easy on 1.5 speed too. :)

[edithcalem]

Very thorough instructions! I want to remove my 36" range vent hood and put in a microwave. Will it look weird to have 3" of space on each side? Should I not do it? Thanks in advance for the input!

[thomasmagoffin]

Great tutorial…exactly the unit I’m installing and helpful tips.

Has anyone ever told you that you resemble the actor who played Namor in Wakanda Forever? Random i know lol Anyway, thanks so much for this!! I got a second hand microwave that was set up to vent through the ceiling but I need it to recirculate as i don't have any vents. I couldn't find anything that explained how to set it up to recirculate, not even the installation manual or LGs actual customer service. So grateful for this video..I now know that I need to get a cover plate for the fan as well as how to turn the fan the correct direction! Thank you thank you!
