    The gentle breeze that a microwave venthood blows 6 inches above your head isn’t exactly premium-grade ventilation. It’s not even ventilation at all, really. The gas is just moved like a foot up before it fills the room.

      I don’t even have a gas range but still hate the microwave mounted over top the stove. If I’m boiling water, it doesn’t matter if the range fan is on, it’s condensing on the microwave’s surfaces. And I don’t burn things on the stove often, but if I do it would be nice to vent that outside, like the whole point of a fucking range fan is you stupid fucking cheap developers.
