1.6 cu. ft. Over the Range Microwave in White

A:  Hello- Thanks so much for checking with us. We are happy to help you find a great replacement microwave. You could go with the current Hotpoint that we have available or you can purchase any model. Models starting with RVM, JVM, CVM, PVM, PNM, and SCA will normally fit into the same area. The dimensions may vary, but just slightly. These models all have a built-in fan underneath the microwave and are designed to be installed over a range or cooktop. RVM's require a minimum 66" mounting height from the floor to top of the microwave. RVM models may be mounted higher than 66" from floor, but the further the microwave is from the cooktop, the more the vent draw capability is affected. The 66" from the floor dimension will allow approximately 14"-16" between the cooktop and the bottom front of the microwave. On the newer JVM's which are taller, the minimum would be 13 1/2". Please note that it is not critical that this 13 1/2"/14"-16" figure is met exactly. But it is the 66" from floor to top of microwave dimension that should be followed. If there is less than 66", the warranty is void if problems occur due to heat or steam from the cooktop surface below the microwave. Another way to look at it is to keep 30" between the top of the range and bottom of the cabinet that the JVM attaches to. It is also important to know that you will need to use the mounting brackets and hardware that come with the new microwave. The mounting kits have changed over the years and are not interchangeable. Current models are installed with the use of a mounting plate. There is a key slot for flat bottomed cabinets and self-directed tapping screws.

A:  Hello! We appreciate you staying with Hotpoint and would love to help you. Any of our current 30" Over-the-Range microwave models will work as a replacement for an existing 30" Over-the-Range microwave model. When replacing an OTR microwave, the mounting bracket included with the new microwave should be used since the mounting bracket is specific to each model. The new screws, bolts, and exhaust adapter should also be used. For the best help regarding pricing, we recommend contacting our HD.com customer service department at 800-430-3376 any day between 6 a.m. and 2 a.m. EST, or call your local store. We hope this helps! Enjoy your day. -Shayla@Hotpoint

A:  Hi - Thank you for reaching out to us and for your interest in a new Hotpoint over-the-range microwave. The RVM5160DHWW model is still available - https://www.homedepot.com/p/Hotpoint-1-6-cu-ft-Over-the-Range-Microwave-in-White-RVM5160DHWW/205145186 -- The model number you mentioned RVM5160DH1WW is including an additional engineering digit which is added to the model number tag during production. When shopping, you want to search for the RVM5160DHWW. They are the same models as far as features, size, and capacity. We hope this helps. Kind regards - Vikki@GEA
