Integrated microwave with right side hinge

Apologies if this has been asked before (have searched but can't find anything) - does anyone know where we could look for an microwave/grill with the door hinged on the right please

I am a leftie so the right side hinge would work far better for me. And our new kitchen design means the right side hinge would also work better.

I have found a Neff (C54R70N3GB) but it is only 21 litre capacity, does not have a grill and is nearly £200 more than comparable microwaves with the conventional left side hinge.

Many thanks for any advice

    i;ve got a panasonic combi which the door pulls down rather than from the sides
  • Thanks - we considered this but, as well as being a leftie, I am also vertically challenged (no hope for me then). The microwave will be in a housing above a single oven, so we discounted a drop down door as I wouldn't be able to get anything safely in or out.
  • How short? I'm 5ft2 and our drop down door integrated combi micro is above a single oven and it's fine. The door provides a little shelf for stirring things on half way through. But if I was much shorter it would be an issue but I'm not sure which way the door is attached would make much difference.
