slimline width washer ?

Hi - I am looking to buy a slightly-slimmer-than-usual washer. Most are 59.5cm or 60cm wide.
59.5 is a very tight fit in the space I have available & 60cm wont fit.
Something 58cm or just 59cm wide would be ideal. I know its only minimal, but that cm or half is all the difference to me.
The height & depth are not an issue.
I would like a full-size load (not the 3kg mini washers), and I'd rather not go for the top-loader as I have a table top dishwasher on the worktop above it in the same plumbing. Yes ! - its a tiny kitchen!
Also has anyone heard of "jack/trolley/rollers" for getting the washer into this tight space (the last washer had to be seriously manhandled to get it into the gap, and ended up dented before it had been used!) - I want some device to get it in, that I can then leave the washer on - Its too tight a space to drag it off once its in there - but I dont want it rolling about once it starts the fast spin. If I ever need to get it out, It would be nice to have some device to make life easy.

Hi
I know it won't be exactly what you want - but have a look at the washers that are designed to be built in. They tend to be just a little smaller. Unfortunatly can be a bit more expensive.
this is the first result I got from google

and google washing machine rollers you'll find allsorts. I've used these in the past
