Moving house next month. The kitchen in new place is good and we've no money plan to replace is but really don't know how we will cope without a dishwasher (as pathetic as that sounds Blush)

Has anyone fitted a dishwasher without ripping out the kitchen? If I remember the kitchen layout correctly there is a cupboard near the sink that could be removed.

TIA

I have. Ripped a slim cupboard out and slid dish washe in. Think. Had to cut a hole in the inside of cupboard next to it so the pipes could connect to the u bend. We also had to trim the kick board

We are. We're putting it where washing machine was and the washing machine is going elsewhere.

Dead easy - take the cupboard out and run the pipes behind the existing run of cupboards to the waste pipes/water. Usually there's a gap behind cupboards so not a problem!
