Watch out for bulky washing machine and dryer designs preventing doors and drawers in kitchen opening
I recently installed a washing machine for my daughter and was reminded how we need to remember to take into account how modern washing machines have a tendency to bulge out at the front, or have large doors that stick out quite a way.
This is inconsequential unless the washing machine is going to be installed in a position where a drawer, or a door opens across its front. In this situation even a few millimetres can be enough to cause a major problem as I found out - Tricity Bendix AW1001 door clearance pictures
The depth of a washing machine quoted by the manufacturer should take into account the whole depth including the way the front may bulge out as well as the door - but just double check.
