    Love your podcast. Just an FYI about the slimline OTR microwaves mentioned by Debbie Hernandez. I just bought one. There are two models from Whirlpool and one from KitchenAid (which is owned by Whirlpool)--not GE. They are indeed beautiful and fill a niche. Just to clarify, it is 10.3125" tall. I was glad to hear it mentioned by a designer since it is a new look--which sometimes causes hesitation. My guess is that this product will be a hit and every manufacturer will be offering similar slimline microwaves in the months and years ahead. Keep up the great work!
