Best Integrated Washing Machines 2026

Built-in machines keep a fitted kitchen seamless. Here are the integrated models that wash well and fit standard UK cabinets.

Hidden behind your kitchen door

Integrated washing machines compared

Integrated models sit behind a cabinet door that matches your kitchen. The choice is smaller than for freestanding machines, and Which? notes they can cost more to buy, install, maintain and replace. Most have an 8kg drum, but 9kg and 10kg options now exist.

Before you buy an integrated machine

  • Check the housing: standard integrated machines are about 82cm high, 60cm wide and 54-57cm deep. Measure the cabinet, not the old machine.
  • Fully or semi-integrated: fully integrated machines hide completely behind the door; semi-integrated models leave the control panel visible.
  • Door hinges and fixings: the kitchen door mounts on the machine itself, so keep the fixing kit and check the hinge side.
  • Energy: many built-in models are C rated, but A-rated options from Hoover show the gap is closing. See energy labels explained.
  • Noise: built-ins sit in the kitchen, so the spin noise figure matters more than usual.

If you have room for a freestanding machine, you will find more choice and bigger drums in our best washing machines list. Need drying too? Some integrated washer dryers are covered in our washer dryer guide.
