Washing machine width

Front-loading washing machines have a standard width of 60 centimeters. Top-loading washing machines are a lot narrower. These washing machines have a standard width of 40 centimeters and usually have a load capacity of up to 6 kilos. This is smaller than a front-loading washing machine.

Washing machine depth

The standard depth of a top-loading washing machine is 60 centimeters. With a front loading washing machine, this is often around 60 centimeters. Keep in mind that the depth is often 5 to 10 centimeters wider because of the protrusions of a washing machine. Add this to the standard depth if you want to know if the washing machine fits in your niche or cupboard. Also keep in mind that the drum door should still be able to open.
