Browse Forums Kitchen Corner 1 Jun 17, 2010 1:14 pm Maybe this is a really stupid question, but is it possible to get a microwave where the door opens to the right? When our build is done we are looking to have our microwave above our applicance cupboard, but because the applicance cupboard is in the corner of the kitchen, the microwave door would need to open to the right to be usable. Every microwave I have ever had opens to the left. Is it possible to get one that opens the other way? Painting finished, time to tile!

Re: Microwave that opens to the right....does this exist? 3Jun 17, 2010 1:46 pm Wow...$2999, that sounds reasonable for a microwave Hopefully there is another option that is a little more cost effective Painting finished, time to tile!

There are a few brands that do a pull down door. Whirlpool is another. Lisa- Finally in our house!!!

We have the Solardom I wanted it because the controls are on the top so the width is all microwave Re: Microwave that opens to the right....does this exist? 9Jun 22, 2010 3:49 pm Wish microwaves did come in the option to open to the right. I'm sure they would sell well. The alternative pull down ones are over $1000 bucks and are usually more than a microwave. Life is; then you tell yourself a story.
