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 and matching tumble dryers 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 problem as I found out – Tricity Bendix AW1001 door clearance pictures
The depth of a washing machine quoted by the manufacturer should in theory take into account the whole depth including the way the front may bulge out as well as the door – but just double check.
