Hello,
I am planning an IKEA Metod kitchen but do not want to use IKEA appliances. Pictures of the layout are attached. The window and radiator are located opposite the door and do not affect the planning.
The connections for the sink and dishwasher are in the corner where the sink is planned. Next to the sink cabinet, there is space planned for the dishwasher. I have already looked at Neff but have not decided on a dishwasher yet. It should be fully integrated, quiet, and have an energy rating of A or better. Any suggestions? Budget up to 500 euros (about 540 USD).
On the right side of the kitchen is the high-voltage connection. I have planned four 60cm (24 inch) cabinets on the right side (one cabinet is the dishwasher space) to make efficient use of the area.
I would like to use an 80cm (32 inch) Neff induction cooktop. Since the cabinets are only 60cm (24 inch) wide, I wonder if an overlapping installation is possible, especially as the cabinet to the left of the induction cooktop is intended for the dishwasher. Also, I do not understand the first drawing (in the link above). Could someone explain the purpose of the ventilation gap shown there?
On the left side, I want to install a built-in fridge inside the first tall cabinet (in the corner). I have not chosen one yet and am open to recommendations. Next to it will be a tall cabinet with an oven.
The tall cabinets are 208cm (82 inches) high. Then follow one 60cm (24 inch) and two 80cm (32 inch) drawer base cabinets.
Alternatively, I could place the induction cooktop on the left side in the central 80cm (32 inch) cabinet, but this would require extending the high-voltage connection.
The budget is about 5000 euros (around 5400 USD), and according to the plan, that should include appliances as well.
Good luck
Christian

That’s possible, but you do need to do some modifications.
My Neff machine is an XL model, which means, as you can see in the pictures, it’s the full 90 cm (35 inches) high.
I installed three fronts in front of the door: 40 cm (16 inches), 20 cm (8 inches), and 20 cm (8 inches).
Below that, there is a fixed 10 cm (4 inch) panel.
To make it fit, you might need to add an extra base plate under the machine. The machine’s height can be adjusted with its adjustable feet, but that might not be enough.
In my opinion, it’s worth the effort because then the dishwasher is fully integrated and matches the other fronts perfectly.
Best regards
