Integrated or utility room anything else looks naff.
I’d much rather have the washer and dryer hidden in the utility, of only my house had one! I can’t think of any good reason to get a non integrated dishwasher It’s not like they are smaller or less efficient or anything and I just wouldn’t have a non integrated washing machine as I think they are hideous and ruin the look of a kitchen!Only if you're slumming it.. after all - who cares what the help thinks.
All depends on the kitchen design. However most of the continent thinks the UK is odd having washing machine/drier in the kitchen. All comes from UK house design in the 50s..

Yeah have to say im with the continent on this one, why would anyone want a washing machine in the kitchen if you've got space anywhere else in the house.
Silver is for people who like cleaning; white goods are far easier and quicker to keep presentable IME. For those of us in smaller houses (ie most of the population) white is also more reflective and less 'bulky' presence, especially for fridge freezers.
Stainless steel is nice but it was stupidly expensive to get an american fridge freezer where the front was stainless steel and there was no ice/water dispenser on the front as well.
Very few models seem to meet that criteria as 95% of them had water dispensers, and I didn't want one (not plumbed in etc).

Fisher and Paykel do loads, think ours was circa £1400, no ice/water on it, though they all seem to have gone up 5-600 quid now!
