Can I put this under a counter? I'll have less than an inch clearance above but ample room on sides, is that enough to ventilate? Thanks!

The instruction stated to have it well ventilated. Mine is not under any counter it's standing along to keep temp steady

Not made for under a counter. Needs air space in rear where there is a filter.

Mine is not under a counter or near anything else and it got too hot when I had it too close to the wall (about 1"). I pulled it out three inches and it works great. I'm remodeling my kitchen and plan to put it under a counter but not in a cabinet so there is airflow around the back and sides.

If your garbage disposal if short enough or you have enough room under your counter. Our counters are extra tall and it would be no problem.

Yes, mine sits about 1.5 inches below the counter. But it works for our needs.

I wish I could help, but I know it is not a whole lot bigger than the inside deminsions. I bought it for my son who lives in a 400 square foot apartment with a very small kitchen counter and he says it fits great and works great. He hasnt had a problem with it at all. Sorry, wish I could be of more help.

I did not have have a problem with placing it under my counter. Plenty of ventilation, I don't think it needs as much with it being a thermoelectric fridge. No condensation, no noise, no vibration or sound. As for the dimensions just measure, the manufacturer specs are spot on.

I don't think it should be mounted under a cabinet. The unit gets pretty hot and there wouldn't be enough airflow. Maybe with a specially designed mount that lets it hang down a few inches from the cabinet base.

I just bought this unit and set it up. My recommendation is not to purchase this one but one that has venting out the front bottom. This unit is meant to have open free standing in a room. Under counter types vent air from front back out where ever but not pulling air from back and vent to the back like this one does. Hope this helps.

I have only placed something really hot on it one time but grabbed a mat to put under it. For that short time it didn't hurt it but I always put a mat under my hot items on my counters also. But very easy to do. I really like mine but I needed the extra space.

If you want to install over the counter, it will fit very well. If you want to install under the counter, it will a bit tight but you will be able to do it.

I don't think you could mount it under a cupboard because it has and vent on the top and there is nothing there to attach it to. Personally I hate mine and would not recommend it to anyone.

You could with the caveat being you must keep the front clear from obstruction; the larger vent is where the air is taken in and the smaller vent on the bottom is where the heat comes out; you do not want that right on the ground and also, if you have it under a counter how will that disperse the heat throughout your space you need heated unless you just want your legs and feet warmed. It works very well in my office that is approximately 8 x 11 feet in dimensions. Hope this information helps you; it is a great purchase, love the warmth.

Sorry, I had to return it due to not fitting under counter. Can't be of help.

I personally would not put it in a space without a little air circulation. This unit is being used in a small alcove with approximately 4-6 inches clearance around and works really well. The air is forced out through the bottom front.

I guess you could. Not sure how stable it would be. There is no Vent on the top. I probable wouldn't tho (My own opinion).

i have about 2 inches from the top of my cabinet to the top of the unit , but i have several inches on both sides for circulation, there is no air vent's on the top of the unit

You could only if you allowed enough air flow around the entire unit, which sort of defeats the purpose of putting it in a closet. The instruction booklet says, "Allow for 5 inches of space between the back of the appliance and any adjacent wall... DO NOT build this appliance into an enclosure: This appliance is designed for a free-standing application only (that last part is all in bold) and is not intended to be 'built-in.'"

I don't think it would work under kitchen counter as the height when lid is raised is 43" and with lid closed is almost 26" tall. The unit is 25" with lid closed.
