okay to put toaster oven on top of microwave?
 

Don't know if this is better suited in a "science"-y newsgroup, but does
anyone know if there is anything wrong with putting a toaster oven on
top of a microwave?

I know you're not supposed to use both at the same time, but wasn't sure
about placement.

Thanks for any info.

As long as no vents on the mw are being blocked it is OK.

Yes, and there is no reason both can't be used simultaneously so long as the
supply line(s) can carry the load.... just be sure there is plenty of head room
above (and around) the toaster oven, you don't want the top of the toaster oven
too close to the bottom of wall cabinets (and/or too close to a wall) or a fire
can occur. NEVER LEAVE A TOASTER OVEN UNATTENDED... especially not in the
broil mode.

I have my toaster oven on top of my microwave, and no harm done. Just as you
said, don't use both at the same time, and as Edwin says, don't block any
vents from the microwave oven!

Should be fine - but why not use both at the same time? As long as you don't
pop a circuit breaker there is no reason not to.
