Silly question about microwaves

Options
My microwave has broke down. 15 plus years old, so planning to buy a new one rather than attempt to get it repaired.
It's on wall mounted brackets. The brackets have been drilled into my tiled walls, so I want to get one that will fit on the same brackets. The microwave sits on top of the brackets, and the feet sit in hollows on the brackets. I'm worried about getting another one that will fit. Do all microwaves have feet, and are they removable?
Thanks for any answers - I did warn you that it was a silly question!

    I doubt any new microwave will be similar to a 15 year old one! There are many ways to solve the problem though - fix a wooden shelf to the brackets with holes for the new feet, put some non-slip matting on the brackets and rest the body of the new microwave on that, etc. Anything can be fixed with a big enough hammer!
