Small kitchen with big possibilities wanted

Even if space is tight, everything can be fitted into a 40 cm US. The drain pipe can be shortened if necessary, and the IKEA siphon has a flexible drain hose. A slim, agile installer is advantageous in this case.

The second appliance does not have a Vario hinge. Since there is currently no 45 cm wide dishwasher from BSH as a large-capacity dishwasher, no 80 cm front fits perfectly. The two machines can be installed by letting the front protrude 5 cm over the appliance door and installing the dishwasher top with a 5 cm gap from the countertop. The section head has just nicely explained this for Kevin0597 in the thread Bosch SMV dishwasher.

I do not have a great idea for the kitchen planning.

Thank you, I have now asked as well.

But now I have two Ikea-specific questions :)

I want this sink here:


Unfortunately, the Ikea planner does not allow me to place it on the 40cm sink cabinet, but it should actually fit (according to the description, the sink is for >= 40cm).

2nd question: I would like this countertop:

The planner also does not allow me to place it, is there a solution or do I need a different countertop?

According to the current plan with a 40cm cabinet, it looks like this:

I hardly know the planner. Maybe he does not cut the finished boards to the right length and does that only with the custom-made Personlig boards?

I took a closer look at the sink. It is 37 cm wide, the cutout is supposed to be 1.6 cm less, so 35.8 cm wide. The cabinet has a clear width of 36.6 cm. So it will be very tight. The retaining clips are maybe one centimeter wide, so they are in the area of the cabinet walls. For the countertop to sit properly, it must be milled out at the spots of the clips and the sink must be installed into the countertop before it sits on it. Of course, there will be trouble if the planner just accepts the installation like that.

ok, that sounds "exciting" - I had also seen the numbers, but could hardly interpret them.

The point with the plate has now also "been clarified", it probably has to do with the installation depth of the induction hob.

Now I should be able to do something with the datasheets again :-/ - In other words: Now I'm also looking for induction hobs that work with 28mm thick plates..

Oh dear, nothing is so simple :)

The problem is not the 28 mm itself, but that you have an oven underneath and the distance becomes too small. If you find a cooktop with a shallower installation depth, it could be so expensive that you would rather choose a 38 mm thick countertop. But first check the manufacturer’s specifications of the selected appliances to see if a 28 mm thick board might actually be sufficient; the planner assumes IKEA appliances.

ah ok, I really have to take a look then :)

everything is not that easy at all :-/
