Washing machines are too big – I need a small washing machine

The standard width space for a kitchen appliance has been 600 mm (60 cm) for many years. However, many people are stuck with kitchens not fitted to the proper European size and have spaces smaller than this. In the past it wasn’t so serious a problem because you could usually find a washing machine a few millimetres smaller but these days almost all free standing washing machines are at least 595mm (59.5 cm) wide.

I’ve come across a few smaller washing machines but unfortunately none have a full sized drum.

Zanussi do a small washing machine but it only has a 3Kg drum size instead of the standard 5Kg (or even 6Kg drum these days).

Zanussi Compact ZWC1300W small washing machine

Depth: 51.5cm (515mm)
Width: 49.5cm (495mm)
Height: 67cm (670mm)
Drum Capacity: (only) 3Kg

Hi,

The working services in our kitchen are bit too low for the ’standard’ 85 cm high machines. I need a washing machine and dishwasher that a bit lower than this.

Can anyone recommend suitable ones?

Thanks.

Eric

Hi there,

I too need to find a washing machine that is approx 83cm high. I might get away with 83.8-84cm at a push, but ideally 83 down to 80 at the very lowest.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Chantelle
