HOW TO: Uninstall/Install an Over The Range MICROWAVE!!! 

Thanks for this Great video. Very detailed. I came across all the issues you mentioned. The bracket didn't fit so I had to replace it with the new one. The holes on the top to secure the microwave did not align with the previous drilled holes so I had to place new ones. The most difficult part was measuring and getting the holes right where they needed to be. I missed the first time because I took exact measurements and did not take in consideration the space that the bracket was going to take when i place it behind. But i fixed that the second time so don't make the same mistake as i did.

This is my biggest complaint I have for appliance makers! Why do they make you drill more holes in particle board for the same brand microwave? Same manufacturer! Someone needs to beat the CEO of Frigidaire for not telling his designers "Hey why don't we !make it easy for installation and standardize these holes and brackets! I hate engineers! yes I get so you have to hire a professional installer, but it is just stupidity!

Skip the ryobi and pay the negligible difference for a Dewalt. I went through 3 sets of ryobi drill/drivers in less than 2 years, built like crap and don't last long enough to justify the price. Also, it's called a hole saw.

Good Job...!! Like that you used the S.W.A.G. system... I use it with great frequency. Surprised the Frigidaire didn't have templates for the hole placements. S.W.A.G. = Scientific Wild Ass Guess

im about to have to pull one of these, for unspeakable reasons......... its also got a broken handle so its not going back in and i plan to do a new backsplash if anything and put a range hood in.. these above range microhoods are JUNK

Great video. Thx. Question: why did one microwave trip the breaker and the new one not? Same manufacturer? When microwaves start, they do have a power kick to them. So do electric ranges. I have a gas range, so hopefully that won't be an issue.

Thanks for the refresher… quick tip…ryobi sells a rechargeable screwdriver mini drill… works wonders for screws in small areas or even general use.

Excellent....excellent... video. The use of real-world encounters, conditions, honesty, and vulnerability increases the value of this production...in my opinion. Well done👍🏽 and Thanks, again.

Thank you so much. You saved me so much time. Got it 1st try and not even 10m.

The cargo bar was super smart!

Where’s your fume hood?

Thanks a bunch. Mine just broke, and I didn't know how they attached. Now I can shop with more confidence.

Thanks for the video, mine hasn't gone out yet but now I know how it's stuck to the wall for when it inevitably goes out. Bonus tip: Find something the wife can "help" you with, even if you really don't need it. It will make her feel handy. :)
