I am looking for a Swedish Microwave Oven which you hang above your
hob as it also has a built in extractor underneath it.

Hello,

I have found some combined extractor/microwave oven units that are
intended to be mounted above an ordinary stove, see
http://www.elektrostore.se/bilder/avm955ix.jpg for a (small) picture
of such an unit.  Is this what you are looking for?

Do you require that the oven is actually built in Sweden, or is it OK
if the manufacturer is Swedish owned?

Where do you want to buy the unit?

Hi

As much as I can see in the picture it looks like the kind of
appliance I am after.  It does not need to be Swedish or Swedish
built, this is just how I have heard them refered as.  Ideally I would
like to buy the unit in the UK or be cheaply shipped to the UK.

It seems like the Whirlpool AVM955 microwave hood combination is the
only readily available product of this category in the UK.  Its
features are as follows:

"Whirlpool AVM955 Microwave Hood Combination in Stainless Steel
