Freestanding machines stand on their own and are the most common in the UK. Integrated machines have a furniture door fixed to the front and need the kitchen cabinet to match; they are not interchangeable with freestanding models, so check the installation type before replacing like for like. Dimensions for integrated models are for the appliance without the furniture door.
