Despite what Ed told you, the size of the openings did, in fact, change between my 2002 and my 2006, 2720SL model TMs. I built drawers for the first one, and am in the process of building drawers for the second one. The old drawers don't come anywhere near fitting the new TM - I tried them, thinking I could save the effort of rebuilding. The difference is in the width, something like an inch-and-a-half or two inches. Height and depth did not change.

I believe that TM buys the cabinets pre-fab from an outside vendor. TM cares about the overall dimensions, and the size of the opening for the oven. I think this is what Ed was referring to - these have not changed. However, the left-right location of the vertical partition below and to the right of the silverware drawer is not of much concern, and it appears that the vendor changed it somewhere along the line.

Moral: As Hal said, MEASURE YOUR PARTICULAR TM before you put any money down on prefab drawers.
