My wife also ....wants the kitchen cabinets that i custom built 30 years ago...ash with a light stain ..painted now. Have you gotten any quotes or would you diy.???
Micro drawer is in the island cabinets on some of these kitchens... like you mentioned....most don't want the old combination hood fan microwave over the stove anymore....and put the stainless chimney hood instead.
Another option is a wall cabinet with an open shelf they make for the mw.
You can see it in the last picture next to the fridge.
Got another stairway to finish starting tomorrow....

I love your comments. All our kitchen cabinets are custom made....40 years ago. The guy who built them died 25 years ago and they are a work of art. The amazing thing is 15 years ago (and they were stained) my wife had me paint them linen white. Horrendous job as there are 23 doors. Took each one off prepped with Kills' oil based paint and then I forget how many coats of paint but they still look beautiful.
I also found your comment that micro over the stove are out. We never did it as we have 2 cabinets over the hood over the stove.
Question: What is a micro draw?

No boat, back in the suds.
