Answer This Question

Hi Dawn! Thank you for checking with us. Yes. You need a trim kit. It secures the microwave in the cabinet and provides necessary airflow. It also gives your setup a finished look. We hope this answers your question. - Patrick

    I am replacing a frigidaire Gallery 19.3125D with a frigidaire Professional 23.3125D, is this possible?
    ByMay 9, 2026
    1 Answer | 
    Answer This Question

    Hi Deborah, thank you for your question. Replacing your Frigidaire Gallery 19.3 cu ft built-in unit with the Frigidaire Professional PMBD3081BF is not guaranteed to be a direct swap, as compatibility depends on your cabinet cutout dimensions and trim kit system rather than the model names alone. The Professional model may have different installation requirements, including trim kit design, cabinet opening size, and ventilation spacing, which often are not interchangeable with Gallery series setups. Because of this, even small differences in height, width, or depth can prevent proper installation without modifications or a new trim kit. It’s best to verify your current cabinet measurements and existing installation setup before proceeding to ensure a proper fit. — Reed

      So does it have a plug or not? One person says yes, other Frigidaire people say no, it's hard wired. Please help.

      Answer This Question

      Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Frigidaire Professional 30" Built-In Convection Microwave Oven with Air Fry. This unit uses a standard 120V / 20-amp plug and is not hardwired. While it is designed to be built into cabinetry, it requires a dedicated electrical outlet, typically located inside the cabinet behind or above the microwave. Some confusion may arise because the outlet is hidden during installation, but the appliance itself comes with a power cord for plug-in connection. No direct hardwiring is necessary. - Jessica

        I see that this microwave appears to have '+30' and '+10' second buttons. Do these function as 'one touch start' buttons? Our old microwave did that, but I see in reviews people say this microwave has no 'one touch' type function, which we'd miss...

        Answer This Question

        Thank you for reaching out, Matt. Yes — the +30 sec and +10 sec buttons on the Frigidaire PMBD3081BF do act as quick-start time-adding features during cooking, but they aren’t exactly the same as the old single-button “one-touch start” that some older microwaves had. ~Ruth

              Answer This Question

              Thank you for your question regarding the Professional 1.6 cu. ft. Electric 30" Built-In Convection Microwave Oven (model PMBD3081BF) in Stainless Steel with Air Fry. For this model, the power cord is not pre-installed or included in the package. The PMBD3081BF is designed for built-in installation and must be hardwired directly to a dedicated 120V, 60Hz, 20 amp electrical circuit. It does not come with a standard plug for direct connection to an outlet. We strongly recommend that installation be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local codes and the installation manual to ensure safety and proper operation. - Jessica

              By|Nov 18, 2025

                We received this product yesterday and Jessica's response is incorrect. It DOES come with a cord to be plugged into a 20 amp circuit. see pic (Too bad for us that we only have 15 amp and it will cost $700-$1100 for our electrician to change it out)

                  Regarding the cut-out requirements.....I plan on replacing a GE microwave with Frigidaire PMBD3081BF. My existing cut-out is 28-1/2" WIDE x 21" HEIGHT. Will I have a gap? Do I need to have a carpenter cut a strip of wood and glue it in place?
                  ByNov 6, 2025

                  Answer This Question

                  The unit cut out width is not over 29" as the other answer mentions. This is incorrect. Your width is fine, according to the cut out requirements. Your height is a little tall, though, and that would need a filler strip.

                  By|Dec 7, 2025

                    Given your existing width of 28½″ and the unit width of ~29.8″, I strongly recommend widening the opening or adding filler/trim pieces. That will yield the best aesthetic result and help ensure the installation looks clean and built‐in rather than “shoved in.” If your cabinetry finish is easy to match, the filler strips approach can be a cost‐effective alternative. - Jessica

                    By|Nov 7, 2025

                      According to Frigidaire's website, the up-and-down cutout should be 17.75 inches. As are all their other combo microwaves.

                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new Frigidaire microwave. Since I got it, it has been a highly efficient tool. It quickly heats up food without needing the oven, and even offers grilling and air frying for small batches, saving time and power. I have so much confidence in its performance. It has been an exceptional addition to my kitchen.

                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 30 inch Built In Convection Microwave Oven with Air Fry has quickly become one of the most valuable appliances in my kitchen. Its convection feature delivers even, consistent heat, which results in reliable cooking and reheating every time. The air fry function has been especially important for supporting my healthy eating plan. It produces crisp textures without the need for excess oils, allowing me to prepare vegetables, lean proteins, and snacks that align with my nutritional goals. The sleek design integrates seamlessly into the kitchen space, and the controls are intuitive and easy to use. The performance has consistently matched or exceeded what I achieved with separate appliances, which has made meal preparation more efficient. The interior capacity accommodates larger dishes, which enables me to batch cook balanced meals for the week. Cleanup is simple, and the overall performance has been dependable and time saving. This combination of microwave, convection oven, and air fry capability allows for remarkable versatility in one appliance and supports my commitment to healthier eating. It has simplified my cooking routine, improved food quality, and reduced reliance on heavier cooking methods. For anyone seeking a practical, high performing upgrade that also encourages healthier meal preparation, this built in convection microwave with air fry is an excellent choice.

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am most excited that is door opens like an oven door. I have never had a microwave with a standard hinged door that opens to a side. That makes it so it is never really a bad spot to put your microwave. Instructions are easy. Super sleek design. Really heavy for a microwave. Seems to be really well made. This unit can also be used as convection or air fryer. Going to make thanksgiving so much easier to prep everything.

I was really hesitant about getting this Frigidaire appliance. We haven’t had the best of luck with their products. I won’t divulge any of the specifics, but I was willing to give this a try and give them another chance for redemption. At first, it really looks intimidating. All those buttons, presets, and whatnot. I had to read the instruction manual a few times, but I think we figured it out. For the most part. The Frigidaire Professional microwave/convection oven is wonderful so far. We have only had it for a short time. It has all the bells and whistles you could dream of. It looks very high-end and performs it as well. We love the numerous presets and ease of operation; it’s amazing. The single display is multi-colored for easy viewing. We haven’t had time to use all of its many functions, including the top grill mode, but we are looking forward to it. It also has a function for two stage cooking. I can’t wait to try that out and start baking Thanksgiving and Christmas goodies, but for the most part, we would recommend the Professional Frigidaire Microwave/Convection oven for anyone who wants the best! Hopefully, it will last, and cleaning it won’t be too difficult. I will update if anything comes up!

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This microwave is the most versatile microwave! It warms, bakes and air fries! I use the baking function as back up, especially as I have only one oven. I most especially love that it is powerful. Unless the food is frozen, most food items are hot in 2 minutes or less. The hotness is even with no cold spots in the food and no need to reheat for a few extra seconds! It completes my frigidaire kitchen!!!

                                        Space Saving All-In-One Appliance
                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always had good luck with Frigidaire appliances, and this one keeps the trend alive! My addiction to cooking appliances led to a cluttered countertop. I prefer a small convection oven over my full-size built in and an air fryer for quick crispy items. Who would imagine both of those items could be combined with a microwave all in one unit? This Frigidaire Professional Convection Microwave Oven with Built-In Air Fry checks all the boxes in one unit that fits directly into the spot my old microwave occupied just above my oven. I am impressed with the quality of the appliance. It has a high-end appearance, and the drop-down door is whisper quiet compared to closing an old-school microwave. The microwave function heats evenly and faster than my old GE Profile. The air fry and convection functions also meet my expectations. Controls are easy to learn. There are two items that resulted in me giving this unit four out of five stars. First, my old microwave had the ability to quick start with a simple push of one of the numerical buttons resulting in the same number of minutes of heating; this unit does not offer that convenience. Second, the convection oven does not have a pre-heat function resulting in an immediate countdown of the set time when started. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and look forward to many years of use and clear countertops!

                                          All in One Device!
                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been really impressed with the Frigidaire PMBD3081BF since installing it in my kitchen. It is much more than just a microwave — the built-in air fry and convection oven features make it incredibly versatile. I’ve already used the air fry mode a few times, and it does a great job crisping things without needing oil. The convection oven setting it also amazing as I don't need to use my large oven for small baking needs. The sensor cooking and reheating features have become my go-to for leftovers. It takes all the guesswork out and keeps food from overcooking. Incredibly, it has a "melt/liquify" setting that does a great job with butter. I used to have to keep a close eye when melting butter (or use a paper towel) since it would splatter all over the microwave but not anymore! The keep-warm setting is handy when I’m juggling other parts of a meal. The design is another highlight. The smudge-proof stainless steel looks great and actually holds up to fingerprints, which I appreciate. The interior LED lighting is bright enough to clearly see how everything is coming along without opening the door. What I like most is how it replaces multiple appliances in one spot. Instead of reheating in one machine and crisping in another, I can do everything in this unit. I was able to get rid of my countertop air fryer and now I have more kitchen space! So far, it’s been a great upgrade and is easily the most versatile machine in my kitchen.
