I'm getting my kitchen totally remodelled soon, and one detail to be
worked out
is how to get the sink (I want a double sink) centered under the current
window
opening. One thing that would work would be to place the dishwasher next
to the
range. Kitchen designer says it's not done. I'll get back to him to iron
out
that last details before anything's ordered to bang the rest of these
details in
place and I'll pursue it again then, but what do folks here say?

Is there a reason to be at least cautious about placing a dishwasher next
to the
stove. It will be an 18" apartment-sized dishwasher, if that matters.

Your kitchen your choice. Screw the designer.

Sure.

But what I'm trying to find out is - what could be his motivation for keeping
the DW away from the range. Is there a heating issue or some other kind of
issue that I should be taking into account? So far, the only thing that has
been brought up is some kind of cabinet that doesn't give as much noise
buffering as other kinds.... But that is the kind of thing I'm looking for.


All you need is a dishwasher blank to cover up DW on the stove side. It
will be nosier this way cause there is less cabinet for the noise to be
absorbed by. This would not be my first choice. Doable none the less.

Where are you getting your 18 inch DW? manufacture, model, price? Please.

Sears. Maybe not sure of the size..(I'm posting from somewhere else at the
moment).
