Oven and refrigerator stacked on top of each other at Ikea Faktum

I recently saw that some manufacturers offer kitchen cabinets where the refrigerator is installed at the bottom and the oven at the top in a tall cabinet. I would also like to realize that in my Ikea kitchen. Such a cabinet is not explicitly offered, but maybe someone has already gained experience with this and created something like that.

Hello

I just have a similar problem. I want to fit the dishwasher and oven in a tall cabinet. So far, I have only found the solution to put the sink in a normal base cabinet, with the regular countertop on top. The (I think 1.40m tall) oven cabinet is now placed on the countertop, and upside down. Hmm, hard to explain. If you just put the cabinet on the countertop normally, the oven would of course be way too high. By turning it upside down, you get the oven at a good height, and above it there is still a compartment.

Basically the solution is fine for me, but I will still ask Ikea again if I can't simply install both in a normal tall cabinet. So sink at the bottom, then a panel and/or drawer, then the oven.

Best regards Steffi

Hi,

so, basically it is NOT possible to install a standard dishwasher in a tall cabinet. It already has an external dimension of 60cm and for that reason alone does not fit into a 60cm tall cabinet. However, there are built-in appliances from other companies with a width of about 55cm, which should fit. However, I have never come across a customer who actually has such a device, so I cannot say anything about the installation and functionality etc.

@ Steffis:

There are no base cabinets for a dishwasher. The appliance ALWAYS stands on its own feet, gets a front panel and a toe kick and that’s it. It just looks as if it were in the cabinet, but it is not. It is certainly also possible to place the 125cm (not 140cm) high cabinet on the countertop. You should actually turn it around, but not because of the oven being too high; the cabinet has the same hole pattern at the top and bottom, so you can also place the oven straight down and then insert the 9.4cm panel between the countertop and oven. You should mainly turn it because the cabinet is open at the top, it looks bad if you open the door at the top and see the kitchen ceiling. What absolutely must be done, however, is that the countertop must be supported to the right and left of the dishwasher, because otherwise it would have to carry the whole thing above. Dishwashers are not designed for that. To make it perfect, place at least 2, preferably 4 UTBY legs for 90cm underneath and then the dishwasher in between, then the setup should work. To anticipate right away, you can only do such "extras" if you build the kitchen yourself. Ikea installation teams adhere to regulations and such things do not count.

Hello

Thank you for the explanation. I will have to do everything myself, but I have a carpenter for support. However, I hope I still have space for the legs on the side, our kitchen is tiny.

With dishwasher [Backofen] in one cabinet I get stomach pains. I think no insurance will pay if your place burns down - water hose routed past electricity... And with [Ofen] [Kühlschrank] in a tall cabinet, you should consider how much electricity you want to pay...

Well, we don’t want to screw the dish soap onto the oven.
