Can the microwaves easily replaced with a different size? Microwaves

I dunno - my first Sharp Carousel II lasted 35 years in daily use.

Since, they've had a lot of experience "value engineering" them. The
Chinese are good at that.

You get what you pay for. Even from the Chinese.

No, you never get more than you pay for.

That same microwave I bought in 1984 for USD$320.00 would cost USD$825.95 today.

I bought one in '78 (when the brat was born) for something like $500.
I could buy one today for under $100.

My current built-in Kitchenaid is very well engineered. But didn't cost $100
like the throwaways you'll find a wally world.

Same here. Your point is?
