quick built-under appliance question?

new kitchen comes next week so going to order my appliances tomorrow, the built under fridge and freezer ive seen says its 875mm high (Indesit), but the 2 others im undecided on are:

Kuppersbusch IKU1685 is 819mm high

Electrolux ERU6470 is 820mm high

I thought all'Built-Under' would be exactly the same height? Can anyone enlighten me? :confused:

    AFAIK most of free-standing washing machines and dishwashers are 85cm.

    Also: Ikea usual base cabinets are 70cm and normal legs are 11-12cm or 12.5-18.5cm. However, other legs up to 21cm are available. I think 875mm Indesit can be used with higher legs.

    Most likely your kitchen will accept only 85cm, but it is worth checking.

    Not sure whether they're the same things or not but I have a fridge and freezer under my worktop (Hotpoint) and they're on little adjustable legs . I would say that they have about 5cm (50mm) of adjustablity underneath which can be uppered or lowered IYKNIM.


    Sorry about the rubbish vocabulary, I haven't switched my brain on yet and I have two children trying to make my head explode :rolleyes:
    Just run, run and keep on running!
