Replacing Integrated Washing Machine

[bdw]

Our integrated washing machine is on its last legs and we are looking to replace it. Our kitchen units are standard size with standard 600mm units.

Are all integrated washing machines the same size? In other words will any integrated machine I buy in the UK fit the standard space?

Should do but you should check the dimensions & emphasize that you want an integrated appliance before you buy.

Are the door hinges always compatible with the units?

The new machine will come with hinges. If you're lucky they may be in the same place.

I changed from hotpoint to bosch and had to drill new holes in the door to fit the hinges, which takes a bit of care.
