Replacing My Microwave: What Size Do I Need for a DCB?

[kdangel518]

DH just called me and gave me the bad news... our microwave just died. Ugh, why now?!?!?!? :cry:

So, can someone please post the size requirements for a microwave to accomodate a DCB? Looks like I will be on the hunt tonight/tomorrow. Thank you.

If I'm remembering correctly it's 13x13x9 is smallest it can be inside.

I would go bigger, as that small makes it very hard to get DCB in and out, or I found it that way at a hostesses home.


Try and make a sale, take your DCB with you to make sure it fits and is easy to get in and out, lol!!

Thanks Lisa. Our current one is a bit difficult getting it in/out but the micro is at countertop level so not a totally big deal.

Just so annoyed this is happening this week and not two weeks ago when DH was still employed

Around here usually Wal-Mart has the best prices. But sometimes our Lowes will surprise you with prices or offers.

I'm sorry for the timing of this happening.

HTH,

Lisa

Oh no!Last year mine died while I was dealing with a drastic pay cut at work. I ended up buying one on Craig's List ... and having buyer's remorse! The stupid turntable doesn't turn!

Yeah, our current one which just died was from Craig's list.DH scored some major brownie points today. He took it upon himself to go hunting for a new microwave today, and he actually measured our current microwave to be sure he found one the same size or larger so my DCB would fit in! He's so good!He found one at Target that's a little bigger than our dead one for $79.99 and we just got a $5 coupon in the mail the other day, so we ended up going after I got out of work. We also got a couple of things for DSS's stocking and small Xmas gifts- some of the Target $1 items were on sale for 50% off!
