    Hi all

    I have an integrated washer/dryer (i.e. Smeg WDI12C) that I want to replace.

    I have two questions:

    1. If I change to another brand (e.g. Zanussi, Beko), I am not sure if the panel door hinges are in the right locations. Has anyone been successful in changing a Smeg washer to another brand without ruining your panel door? It seems like for Zanussi/AEG the hinge distance is 416mm but the hinge distance for Smeg is 413mm – would the 3mm be an issue?

    2. If I keep to Smeg, I noticed the depth is existing washer is 550mm but all the new Smeg has 560mm+20mm (http://www.smeguk.com/product/wdi147/). Is the 20mm the panel door? Also is 3cm a big difference in depth. I think I have a standard kitchen depth.

    Any help much appreciated! Thank you in advance.

    hit this problem all the time. nothing is standard so you have to get the door redrilled to match the new machine
