    I appreciate these DIY videos. What I like most is that nicks, bumps and problem solving are included. I really like the way that Karen conducts the interviews and includes questions to pull out important points.

      Thanks so much Bob. We really appreciate it. We use UA-cam a lot to figure out how to do things too, so we hope it helps.

      I know what you mean. I'd love to replace the tile backsplash.

    Be glad it wasn't a built-in unit. We got lucky when we replaced ours and found one that fit and wasn't too expensive.

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  2 роки тому

      So true. That would have been a nightmare. We had the fridge worked on and had to build a platform just to move it away from the wall. Yikes!

    I have been lucky, have never had a microwave take a poop on me. The one in our house is 20 years old at least. The one in the RV is a 1993. I love watching Dave work.

    • @WattsOnWheels

      He's got a special knack. Of course he's probably put in a few hundred of these during his kitchen and bath remodeling days. Yep, a good handyman is hard to find.

    I just got a quote for $1500 to replace my micro/convection oven. However many beers Dave charges you it’s still cheaper than what it’s going to cost me.

    • @WattsOnWheels

      OUCH! Better be a good one! Dave will have a beer for you anyways.

    Watched our microwave installer open up the door on the unit after he got the back hooked in and use clamps to hold the unit in place so he could get the screws in without having hold it up there with one had and put screws in with the other.

    I’m replacing mine and was thinking of ordering the same one you purchased.

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  Рік тому

      Well, the microwave part works OK, but the oven part is low on temp about 25-50 degrees. It also burns on the left side. I have to spin food all the time.

  • @olsonsinoverdrive5153
    @olsonsinoverdrive5153 2 роки тому +1

    How many watts is the new microwave vs old? We only have a 950 watt LG convection microwave in our 2016 Luxe 5th wheel. I’d like to upgrade to a higher powered unit.

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  2 роки тому +1

      1100 watts but the oven does not reach the temperature it says.

  • @danjohnson7767

    Only Dave would act like no big deal! But why after only three years did it go bad?

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  2 роки тому

      That is the million dollar question. I guess just rolling down the bumpy road wore it out. Will be interesting to see how long this "cheaper" model last.

  • @CaptainCornBurner
    @CaptainCornBurner 2 роки тому +1

    So nice to see a great couple working so well together that’s part of the enjoyment of watching you guys on the channel. Just wondering do you think the vibration of going down the road has taken its toll on the microwaves overtime?. Safe travels to you both! 🍺

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  2 роки тому

      Thanks for watching. Since we travel so much, we think all the rough roads may take a toll on it. We may have to buy a higher end one next time. :)

    How long does it take to preheat? We will be needing a new one one of these days. Ours is original equipment and is now 6 years old.

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  2 роки тому

      It ain't the speediest thing. Maybe 7-10 minutes while prepping food. The price was right.

      Karen was born in Ohio and moved to Michigan in the 1980's. Dave is from the Detroit, MI area. We met in 1999 and lived in MI until 2005. We then moved to Georgia.

    Why did you choose that brand? How has it been since you installed it? We are getting a used New Horizons next month and it needs the existing unit replaced. We are researching a replacement.

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  Рік тому

      Bought it for the price but won't buy that one again. Micro takes longer than expected and oven is about 50 degrees low.

    @duckiegirl58 2 роки тому +1

    I love the convenience of having one over the stove, but I find it claustrophobic to cook under one. It's cramped to cook in tall pots and see well into the pots behind. I would love to change out stove to a convention oven, but need to see if any work with propane. Dave, you're nothing if not entertaining!!

    • @WattsOnWheels
      @WattsOnWheels  2 роки тому +1

      It is a little tight cooking under it. I don't like taking hot things out of it since it is so high. But, it all works.
