Our microwave hasn't been in the kitchen proper in our last 2 places. Here it's more in the dining side of the kitchen/dining room, and in the previous place it was in the wall unit (of ours) that was on the other side of the dining room cos it couldn't fit into the microwave alcove. (my pet hate in kitches - microwave nooks that would only fit the smallest of microwaves, and are above my shoulder height)
Don't even have a microwave nook - ours is on top of the fridge. I hate standing on tiptoes to get things in and out of it, and it means it doesn't get cleaned nearly as often as it should because it's a pain in the ass to find a chair to stand on.
