Empty Where Dishwasher Used To be
Hi,
My dishwasher has finally kicked the bucket. I am not really intrested in buying a new one as we rarely used this one. I was looking for Ideas on what to do with this space. I saw some put together cabinets at lowes, Do they make a size that would fit and how do you trim it out. Any Ideas would be appreciated. Cyberdock |

If not, the hole should be a standard size, fillable with a stock sized kitchen cabinet. Of course you might have trouble coming up with a perfect match to your other cabinets, but that depends on how important that is to you. Would "getting close" do it? If so, then start shopping for a base cabinet (I think standard width for dishwasher openings is 30", but memory could be fading on that one). -- The real Tom Pendergast [ So if you meet me, have some courtesy, aka I-zheet M'drurz [ have some sympathy, and some taste.

If you can't find an exact match you could fill it with some kind of roll
around cabinet. Something like this http://www.ikea-usa.com/webapp/wcs/s...ts=10110*10255 Certain high end kitchens have this as an option. "cyberdock" wrote in message ...
