Melizauri20 Jul 2015 21:51Sorry to bring up this topic again, but I’m really stressed. Unfortunately, our dishwasher broke down even before the new kitchen was installed. I’ve been running back and forth between stores and IKEA for days now and I’m almost losing hope.
We want to install a fully integrated Miele or Siemens dishwasher in our new IKEA kitchen (Metod). My neighbor has the IKEA Välgjord dishwasher and is very unhappy with it. I definitely don’t want that one. So it has to be Miele or Siemens.
I’ve understood that the dishwasher has to be an XXL model. But the Siemens one is already 86.5 cm (34 inches) high, and the Miele is 84.5 cm (33 inches) high. The IKEA kitchen, including the plinth, is 88 cm (35 inches). That doesn’t seem to fit, or am I misunderstanding something?
I urgently need advice on which Siemens or Miele dishwasher fits here and which hinge or sliding rail to use. I have to buy the dishwasher now, but the IKEA kitchen will be installed later. If I buy the wrong one now, I’ll run into trouble later.
It would be great if you could help me, maybe even with model numbers if someone has already installed one.
Thank you!

For Miele, does it come without a hinge, or is that included as well?
Thank you.

IKEA-Experte20 Jul 2015 22:59The variable hinge is integrated and cannot be installed afterwards. I believe with Miele it is straightforward, the important thing is whether the maximum door height of at least 800 mm (31.5 inches) is specified in the installation diagrams.

Melizauri21 Jul 2015 11:03You are right, I just spoke with customer service and only these 3 models fit the Metod, as they already have the variable hinge installed. Retrofitting is not possible.
Thank you
Thank you
