Howdens - do their doors/carcasses fit other brand integrated appliances?

I'd like to get a new kitchen. I would want to keep my own tumble drier and washing machine as they are relatively new and in good working order.
I'll probably change my dishwasher though as it looks a bit rough and has got rust on the bottom, it's also ten or so years old. I may buy an integrated type and see if howdens can fit the doors onto it. I've been reading about their own brand lamorna appliances and think I will avoid.
Is it possible to fit a normal brand integrated appliance into the Howdens kitchen?
When my tumble trier and washing machine break down, would it be relatively easy to buy new integrated products and get them fitted with the proper doors later on (if I buy the doors at the time), or would that be a massive pain? I don't want to waste money on new appliances when they are already working and in a decent state.

Integrated appliances are standard sizes so that they can be ....... integrated. Fixing matching door panels to the front of the integrated appliance is just a matter of drilling the holes in the right places. I don't think you will have a problem.

My sister fitted her kitchen to her fridge which was narrow and regretted it ever since. Only keep if they are standard would be my thought.0
