Does anyone have experience with an over the range microwave and vent combination, venting to outside?

I am considering a Kenmore.

Thanks

My last home had one of these units and it worked fine. The only thing you have to remember is to turn on the exhaust fan when using your oven or the microwave will overheat. Good luck.

The microwave vent over the stove may be a problem for short cooks who must reach up to remove items from microwave. These units do, however, tend to offer an attractive solution for where to place the microwave as well as provide a venting solution and free up counterspace.
