Plastic vent on microwave was cracked and would no longer stay on.
Removed the broken parts and screws and placed the new vent on and tightened screws. I am an 76 year old woman, so if I could do this, then anyone can! Surprisingly easy to install.

Plastic tabs broke and the grille fell off.
Removed the screws holding the broken tabs and thought the new vent grille would click right into place. I had quite a bit of trouble getting all the tabs lined up to click into place, but was finally able to do it. Then I just used the old screws to secure the new grille.

Vent was Broken.
I, carefully, inserted the bottom tabs into the appropriate slots. I then rotated the vent piece up and into place under the top lip of the Microwave. Once positioned I installed the screws required to hold the piece in place. Very simple replacement. It gave me a chance to clean the grease behind the vent.

Took screws off of old vent grille and installed new one. Very easy except my old one was a shiny black grille and this one has a matte finish. Description did not say which but I am fine with the part.

The grill that was in place was sagging onto the microwave door
We visited our daughter and son-in-law for Thanksgiving. They asked if I could fasten it so it would stop sagging onto the microwave door. As I looked, I found the screw fasteners were both broken out and the grill was just resting in place. While Thanksgiving dinner was being completed I looked online, found the replacement part and ordered it. The amazing delivery... Ordered on Thursday and delivered on Saturday. It only took a couple of minutes to get the step stool and screwdriver. Then I completed installing the replacement grill.

The Vent grill on my microwave broke
I was in a panic as no one in our twon had this part. I found PartSelect online and ordered the part. I ordered this part at 4PM and the next day at 2PM the part was at my house. My husband spent 30 seconds screwing it back on and it looks like new. I can't say enough wonderful things about your Company and Customer Service!!! You're the BEST!!!

microwave vent grill
I have been doing repair on things on my own for years, I am a retired prevenative maintenace supervisor.
While cleaning the microwave vent grill from being old it fell apart, so I ordered the part using the internet to find the a company that has the same part, the part didnt take long before I recieved it. It didnt take five minutes to install it, and it saved me cash in the pocket from someone else to do the work. wallen
