Article On Washing Machine Sizes (looking for a smaller washing machine)
I've just created a new article by combining and re-writing 3 different ones that were all on the same subject. It looks at the issue of non-standard washing machine heights, widths and depths, which many people find that they need due to having a washing machine space that is too small for a normal sized washer.
The article contains useful tips and possible workarounds on reducing the height of a washing machine. This article is now on my main white goods site (Whitegoodshelp) - Washing machines and associated problems with sizes

Article notes standard washing machine dimensions
- The problem
- The discussion is about finding a washing machine to fit a restricted space, particularly when a standard appliance may be too large in width or height.
- Likely cause
- The likely issue is limited installation space compared with standard washing machine dimensions. No individual appliance fault was discussed.
- What fixed it
- The accepted post states that standard European washing machine width is about 600mm, with most models 600mm or 595mm wide. The most common height is 850mm, while depth varies more and is usually less critical. The thread refers to an article covering non-standard sizes and possible workarounds on reducing height, but no specific repair or model recommendation was documented in the discussion.

- Considered that depth can vary more than width or height

The standard European width for a washing machine is about 600mm. Most washing machines are either 600mm, or 595mm wide. Washing machines can vary slightly in depth and height but the most common washing machine height is 850mm. The depth of a washing machine varies much more and is usually less critical.
