Dishwasher location question..

Options
We are struggling to get a dishwasher into our kitchen - I was wondering if it would be possible to put it along side an inbuilt oven? Would the heat from the oven damage the dishwasher or would it be ok?

Thanks in advance

Rich

Edited to add - there would be about a 15cm gap between the oven wall and dishwasher wall - not sure if this would make a difference??

    No worries about being aside oven housing, both are sealed and heat wont effect it, i would say appearance wouldnt look too good.face on veiw,
    but if thats the only place, what about plumbing?

    We have had a fridge alongside our built in oven for a number of years----No problem.
    I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.

    Plumbing isn't an issue because the sink and pipes are next to it - only other option would be to move washing machine into conservatory and pipe through the wall and put dishwasher where washing machine is.

    Thanks for the replies - its good to know it could be an option.

  • Our dishwasher is next to the oven, had no problems, and it looks just fine. It sounds a better option than a washer in a conservatory, which will in time become a utility room!

    We have intergrated fridge and dishwasher on the left and right of the oven. Both are fine so far.
