Distance between dishwasher and 'fridge.

13 years ago

From the viewers prospective, it looks like there would be a challenge opening the dishwasher without hitting the handles on the refrigerator...or is it a milliliter squeeze with no room to spare?

In reality, unless you're running a restaurant, nobody uses that many burners at one time. IMO, that stove is for snob appeal. I realize, there probably are one or two knobs for an oven, still.......

looks like it may have a whole 1/16" of an inch clearance

From this picture I'm counting seven knobs on the stove. Did they really need such a large stove? Having said that, where would you do the prep work for such a huge meal that would require so many burners? I'd have opted for less stove and used those new found inches for a spacer next to the wall where the dishwasher is placed. Where do you put a broom? Those extra found inches could be for a tall, narrow broom closet.

It looks like a 4 burner stove to me, based on the oven handle.

What's the oven handle have to do with it? Count them, there's 7. I have 5 burners and a warming drawer which counts for 6 knobs on mine. The oven is operated from the back of the stove with buttons, not knobs. For burners, there's two on each side and the middle for a griddle and then the one for the warming drawer which I will NEVER USE but it came that way.

I feel it is unsafe to have a sink and stove so close to one another. jmo

If you look up the bertazzoni 30in 4 burner ranges they have 7 knobs. I had them quoted once.
