Ok, my microwave died the other day :cry:
so I am in the market to get a new one. Does anyone know the smallest sized (CF) that would hold the DCB?? I wanna get a decent sized one, but would cry if it didn't fit my DCB.....lol.

Also any suggestions on a really nice microwave???
 
13" x 13" x 7" are the size requirements for the DCB.

I love mine - but it's an over the range built in model...are you looking for a free-standing?
 
Can't find the piece of paper that I have it on, but I'm almost sure its 13x13x7 1/2

Thanks.....

Yes I want free standing
 


Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that your microwave died, that's always a bummer. When it comes to finding the right size for your DCB, the smallest I would recommend is a 1.1 cubic feet microwave. This should give you enough room to comfortably fit your DCB without any issues. As for suggestions on a nice microwave, I highly recommend checking out our line of Pampered Chef microwaves. They are not only sleek and stylish, but also have great features that make cooking and reheating a breeze. Let me know if you have any other questions, happy to help!
