Unique and Practical Gift Idea: Over-the-Range Microhood At Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center Throughout the 80's and 90's countertop microwaves were hugely popular as gifts. But their popularity has waned as has their practicality because of the precious countertop space that they occupy. A practical solution to this problem is to replace that old vent hood with a new Over-the-Range (OTR) Micro-hood that serves both as a microwave and a vent hood. Micro-hoods (invented by GE) are increasingly becoming standard in new home construction, but they are rarely thought of as gifts because they need to be installed. However, Universal Appliance and Kitchen Center (UAKC) has a solution to the installation problem. They have their own factory-trained installation crews. They can quickly replace that old vent hood, and they'll even haul it away for free. Take a look below at a just a few of the many micro-hoods available at UAKC, and hurry in today to order yours.

Here's what others that were interviewed had to say. Baron Rogers of Kelly Baron Design says, "Universal Appliance has been an integral part of our business - being able to go from sales all the way through installation. It cuts down a lot of lag time and there's less complication when dealing with one vendor that can cover the process from start to finish."

They don't really know how it works or much about it at all. So if you want to learn the features and learn the equipment, you want to come to a place like this."- Ed Begley Jr. Here's the complete video (3 1/2 minutes) featuring interviews from those above as well as others.
