How and where does the bracket mount?

Most are floor/wall mount. I prefer the floor only mount. Less give. Imagine a L shaped piece of metal about 3" wide and 6" on each leg. The leg on the floor is slotted to accept a leveling foot for the appliance. It holds it to the floor.

Does anyone check the mounts for over the range micro's? I find an occasional one not seated in the back plate or upper mount holes blown out.
