Replace Thermador MBBS with Panasonic or other brand
T'dor MBBS has gone out, and MBES model doesn't fit without buying new installation package. I have the package for the MBBS, any substitute for the MBBS
My MBBS/01 whet out a few days ago. After researching and seeing this post. I purchased a GE JES2051SNSS (Cost 229.00 at Lowes) Everything from my MBBS/01 trim kit matched up perfectly with one exception. (The vent on the back I had to take my tin snips and cut the top and bottom right hand side a little to make it fit over the back extended part on the microwave. Took about 5 minutes.) Now I have a GE microwave / Thermador trim. So much better then buying a new $700 plus Thermador unit.
I just successfully replaced a Thermadore MBBS microwave with an LG Model #LMC2075ST (Lowes stock number 728040). It was close to a perfect fit into the Thermadore trim kit and attachments, and very easy install. The LG was only $169 on sale at Lowes, and is, by far, a superior microwave to the old MBBS model.
