1. Start with the space
Measure the available width, height and depth, including ventilation gaps, doors, handles and nearby fittings. Check that appliance doors and drawers can open fully.
2. Choose capacity for your routine
Think about household size, shopping habits and how often the appliance will be used. A larger capacity can be useful, but it should fit both the space and the way you live.
3. Read energy and noise information
Compare the energy label, stated consumption and noise level for the same type of appliance. These details can matter over the full life of a product, especially for appliances used every day.
4. Check installation requirements
Confirm the required electrical connection, water inlet, drainage, ventilation and clearances. Built-in appliances also need compatible cabinet dimensions and door arrangements.
5. Plan the route into your home
Measure entrances, stairways, lifts and tight corners before ordering a large appliance. Product dimensions alone do not guarantee that an item can reach its final position.
6. Compare the features you will use
Prioritise the programmes, controls, capacity, accessories and maintenance needs that match your routine. Use the product specifications and contact us when a detail is unclear.
