I actually can do that now. My POD has been emptied into a storage that I have access to. Only thing is that the lawnmower and grille and a huge mattress are in front of everything, haha.
It has a vent above and beneath it James. Supposed to prevent heat damage. Neither the microwave nor the stove are new and there has been no damage to this point.
I know it's a common setup It just seems strange to me that it is the option people use. I can see the instructions now, place the unit in the most likely place to get overheated and inundated with steam (don't worry nothing will probably happen). However if it does you can buy a new one and re-locate next time. .
Wow, looks great!
