not a good idea m8 as the heat from the cooker will affect how the temp gauge on the fridge will work so when the oven is on the fridge will work ten times harder as it will think its getting hot so you will find you food going funny/

oven can go besides dishwaser yes, then put fridge at side of wasker. But dont forget about routing plumbing/waste for the dishwaser. Also if fridge is at side of washing machine make sure its very sturdy and dont shake ya milk bottles off the shelf on full spin lol! As Greg says with oven and fridge working ten times harder.

now this is helping

the washing machine it under the sink ( well to the right of it) on another wall

im chopping one of the cupboards to fit the dishwasher and was gonna fit another side on the right but it makes the kitchen much much smaler so thats been fooked off


ill have to look at what plubing is needed but i would have though there owould be a water pump in it so should be ok i hope , its a l shaped kitchen and the sink is almost at the center of the L on the short side ( one side is 1 meter long and the other its 3 meters long

mmm wonder what else

oh and inbuilt microwaves, need help wheres the best place to fit me bosch as ive been tols there needs to be air gap all way round ?????, only got vents at back though

you a trying to crsm too much into that pokey kitchen mate. Fook the diswaher off for a start.

Without starting an argument NO Reputable Kitchen fitter would reccomend the fridge go beside the oven. I have a 400mm unit between my oven and fridge freezer. All ican say is that cupboard is quite warm and it aint cos of the fridge lol.

What you mean by water pump...in what?

Heat is vented off at the rear of the fridge tho Trev....(the black mesh). Heat from the side hasnt got that ventilation specially if crammed at the side with no air gaps.
