1. Yes, you can take it and everything works.

2. Large capacity = XXL
I assume the dishwasher should simply be installed without any tricks.
The two models then do not fit. The dishwasher (from BSH) must be 86.5 cm high and have a Vario hinge.

Okay, then the first question is already settled, thanks.

I would also want to trick the dishwasher, but I have no idea what tricks would have to be applied? Sawing and stuff would be fine if I could understand how to roughly go about it. And which of the machines would be more suitable for tricking?

Since I will probably have the kitchen installed by Ikea, could this also be arranged with the people there, or do they not do that?
With Siemens, they said I would have to buy the original Siemens hinges and have the Ikea panel trimmed to fit. But with the costs for the hinges, I would be financially better off with the alternative machine you mentioned to me.

If I bought a freestanding unit, would it generally be easier? Meaning that you would only have to adjust the height with plinths, or cover the top? (even if that option wouldn’t be quite as nice ).

Best regards

You don't know who will install the kitchen. Delivery and installation are carried out by subcontractors. It can happen that a few unskilled workers come to you, two of whom barely speak German and one almost not at all. Then it becomes difficult with all work beyond the standard. Maybe they will also say that the installation of non-IKEA dishwashers is not included in the price. Before placing an order, I would clarify this in advance and have it confirmed in writing if possible.

The Siemens folding hinge is extremely expensive and cutting a front to the correct dimensions is problematic if it is not a smooth front. If this is done at all during installation, don’t expect the cut edges to be neatly sealed. If the processed fronts, for example, swell, IKEA may refuse warranty, even if they are responsible for improper installation. I would also clarify this in advance if necessary.

A large capacity dishwasher from BSH without a Vario hinge can be installed if there is about 3 cm of free space between the top edge of the dishwasher and the countertop, or if it is filled with wood. The front is then mounted so that it aligns at the bottom with the adjacent cabinets and protrudes above the door at the top (Stefan method).

If the money is not enough, I would keep washing by hand until I have saved enough to buy the right dishwasher. The cheaper devices are also better in quality. For example, the SX63D002EU has a plastic bottom inside, the SX76P030EU one made of stainless steel.

The one here would work without tricking: Siemens SX63D002EU Is an XXL device with Varioscharnier, fronts up to 800mm fit on it. It also stays within a reasonable price range

The SX63D002EU does NOT have a Varioscharnier.
