Lesson Learned !! Grrrrr.
Howdy, Y'all.
I purchased a Sharp replacement microwave/convection oven because mine
is dead. I bought it from Lowe's and paid for delivery and
installation because Jack didn't want the hassle. It was a special
order and I waited about 2 weeks. Yesterday the installer showed up,
came in the coach, looked things over and refused to install the oven.
Said that it would be too complicated and took the oven back to the
store. When Jack came home from work(furious), we went to Lowe's and
got a total refund with apologies. I was so disappointed.

Later I found the oven via Amazon for a little less money and
purchased it. Jack's co-workers offered to help him get the old oven
out and install the new one. I also called BB and one of the techs,
Wendell, told me where to find the receptacle for the oven and where
the holding screws would be located.

I told Jack that we would just have to learn to handle more situations
with our house-on-wheels. Lesson learned? Do it yourself!!

Regards,
Liz

Hi Liz and Jack,

Sorry I can't help in giving any useful tips to make
your install go smoother. Instead I'm asking you for
help. I sure would like to know how that micro-
wave is bolted in. Could you kindly relay what Wendell
said regarding this?

Thanks

Howdy, John.
My coach is a 1993. I purchased Sharp's over the range
microwave/convection oven, R-1870. I carefully looked at the GE model
but decided that I didn't want to learn a new oven(grin). The original
oven also was a Sharp, built in 1992.

OK, David. In my 1993, there is a small compartment over the oven.
There are 2 long screws up there supposedly holding the oven. There is
a little boxed in area, on the right hand side of this compartment and
one of the holding screws is supposedly in that box, along with the
electrical receptacle. Under the oven, at the very back and in front
of the mirrors, there is a bar and it has two screws. One is supposed
to loosen them and the oven will lift off of that bar. We'll see. This
oven is heavy. I am going to take photos of this project.

BTW, did you ever live in Florida in an American Eagle?

Regards,
Liz

Hi Liz,

Thanks for the tutorial. As John Suter said, "I'm
sure Wendell had a smile on his face as he was
describing this". I wish you the best with your new
install and am looking forward to the pics. No, I
never lived in Fla, I try to stay clear of the place,
since all my exes live there!

Gosh darn it Scott, you're right, its been a full year
since we brought Ruby and Smokey and the Gals
into the new year. I sure wouldn't mind a repeat of
last year, what a blast! Completely unexpected
and spontaneous! What a welcome to the Blue Birding
lifestyle! I don't think it's too early to wish you and Judi
all the best in the coming year. Looks like you'll be
starting it off in fine fashion with a trip to NM. We
won't be far behind; we're planning a trip to Ca, leaving
late Jan or early Feb. Give our best to Judi! Suzy and
I are expecting company here in Va and are kind of
glued to the house till then. Hope to see you in Myrtle
Beach; someone said there might be a rally there in '06?
