What Chicago does
to a microwave.

Where microwaves sit in Kane County, as across Chicago: older housing stock, tower living, mixed housing, family houses.

All of Chicago

Older housing stock

Restored kitchens often hide the microwave in a pantry or a cabinet to keep the period look, and a unit boxed in without the trim kit meant for it overheats and stops mid-cycle until it is given room to breathe.

Tower living

A built-in microwave in a condo tower sits in a trim kit cut to one model's size, so it is repaired in place whenever possible, since a replacement has to match that opening or the cabinetry has to change.

Mixed housing

When a newer microwave hood combination replaces an older one, it is often hung on the old mounting holes and fed by the old duct, and a unit that rattles or vents poorly is traced to that fit rather than the fan.

Family houses

In a family house the microwave warms bottles, snacks and leftovers from dawn to bedtime, and its door latch and turntable wear out ahead of anything else inside it.
