Badly designed sliding mechanism Anonymous reviewerI’ve had three integrated dishwashers from Ikea and this new door system is no good for me Hard to get set up and continually catches door and bottom clip springs off
Just doesn’t workAnonymous reviewerBought a new integrated dishwasher only to find that every time we try to fit the sliding mechanism the plastic clips either break or spring off. Have a dishwasher now with no front on it which isn’t a good look in a two year old kitchen. We don’t really want to have to buy another new dishwasher which must then come from Ikea! I’m guessing this is a deliberate hack by Ikea to force you to buy one of their dishwashers which unfortunately all have low fuel efficiency ratings.
Sadly - Plastic clips keep breakingAnonymous reviewerLike others... This is tricky to fit... and is made more difficult if your existing dishwasher height is not within the exact range this item is designed for. (As its a hinge, the alignment and angles are critical!).
After 2 months, both the plastic retaining clips broke. In fairness to IKEA, they have sent a replacement 'free'.... I might look to glue the clips to the mechanism in an attempt to improve the strength and reduce the reliance on a 5mm plastic retaining lug. (This might void the guarantee, but if it resolve the problem, then there's no issue.)
Advice to buyers.... be aware of this problem and be very careful and accurate when fitting. Consider investing in an IKEA dishwasher designed for the low kickboard (Eeek! But only solution to avoid needing this part)
Advice to IKEA - Make these clips in metal or change the design so that it is as good as all your other products!
Terrible design flawAnonymous reviewerI bought my kitchen from you in 2022 and since then iv not been able to use my integrated hotpoint dishwasher do to a design fault with the dishwasher fittings that we bought from you. The bar keeps popping out of the clips. Like many others have stated. I love my kitchen except this :( issue which iv still not been able to resolve.
Terrible productAnonymous reviewerWe have had an ikea kitchen fitted and within less than a year one of the clips continually popped off. We have been into ikea on 2 separate occasions to get spare parts and was told by one worker that they didn't do those sorts and another worker refused to help without the product code. We are now in a situation where both clips have popped off and we no longer have a door attached to the dishwasher. It was fitted by an ikea approved fitter and less than 2 years in we now don't have a functioning door. Very disappointed.
This is an awful product. Anonymous reviewerThe idea of a sliding door system is great but IKEA have plainly not lived up to their usual standards witty this one. Flimsy. Has broken already. And damaged the door when it did. Not at all happy with it.
Do not buy! Awful Anonymous reviewerLike the rest of the reviews here, it’s not fit for purpose, it’s cheap, awful to fit and when fitted not sturdy.
I have for kitchens before and ikea is by far the worst. Spend more and get DIYKitchens or Howdens.
Poorly designed. Plastic cliips keep failing.Anonymous reviewerSimilar experience to the above customers. Got through two of these. The first time the pastic clips break so the door comes off the bottom bar. Second time the laminate on the units has worn away causing the door to rub and again the plastic clips have snapped. Had the clips been made of metal we would have a door on our dishwasher. Expensive and not fit for purpose.
doesn't work, poor qualityAnonymous reviewerWe have fitted this as per instructions and the door keep on coming off and now the brackets on which the door slides has been broken!! Useless. I can't even find these as spares now. What help can IKEA provide?
Major design flaw renders this useless.Anonymous reviewerSetting aside the incomprehensible instructions and fact that there isn't even an option for dishwashers which sit higher than 135mm from the ground... The product has a flaw which means the final installation ends up sitting your dishwasher door 2cm further forwards that the units either side. This is because the little metal stencil provided is designed to ignore the fact that an additional door will be added at the end. I'm get that there is a level of faffiness with all Ikea installations, but this is just a badly designed product that hasn't ever been tested. Rubbish time wasting product. There is a solve, but it requires you to totally ignore the instructions and provided stencil.
Destroyed our cabinetsAnonymous reviewerThis is not fit for purpose. Our cabinets either side have been rubbed so badly from the install that the covering has come off. The door constantly comes off the bar at the bottom due to the friction and the plastic connector has snapped. It was installed by ikea and they have not returned emails, I'm left with a new kitchen and no door on my dishwasher.
AwfulAnonymous reviewerIt doesn't work, all fitted as per the instructions. The top stuck out by nearly 20mm with the bottom flush. Then within five uses the bottom bracket broke, after trying to glue and alter the angle to level it up the top would catch on the slide. Again the bottom end broke again. This is not fit for purpose.
Does not take the weightAnonymous reviewerAll 4 plastic brackets holding the bodbyn door to the sliding frame have snapped. As it's over 1 year since I bought my 5k ikea kitchen, customer services said there was nothing they could do. So I have an integrated dishwasher with no door. Looks awful. I believe it's faulty and cannot take the weight of the door.
Great stuff!!Anonymous reviewerThis is exactly the solution I was looking for. Easy to install and works perfectly. The only point to note, you need cabinets on both sides to fit the bottom metal rod.
Doesn't fit every kitchenAnonymous reviewerI gave the product three stars because it didn't fit my combination of cupboard door, depth and dishwasher dimensions (Bosch series 8), but overall the quality of this product is excellent. I had to watch a YouTube video because the manual is surprisingly complex to an IKEA product.
This product has a lot of potential but you need to keep in mind that: 1) The cupboard door must be at least 75 cm long otherwise you'll have to cut through hard plastic and metal parts with a saw; 2) This product adds 250mm to the dishwasher depth, excluding the cupboard door you'll attach to it. Make sure you can push your dishwasher deep enough to compensate for the additional depth otherwise you'll waste your time and money.
Awful, difficult to fit and not up to purposeAnonymous reviewerYou don’t have many options if you buy a standard dishwasher to fit in your IKEA kitchen but this is not probably a good choice. The one I purchased has lasted 5 months. I have read many online reviews stating the bottom brackets and clips repeatedly fail and now I have experienced this and removed it I can see why. Not fit for purpose.
Poor qualityAnonymous reviewerThere is a plastic part that connects the metal plate you attach to the door and the vertical rail that allows the door to slide when you open the door. The door needs to slide up as the IKEA plinths are very low. Anyway, I’m on my 4th replacement from IKEA for this piece of plastic just keeps breaking. Should of been thought out better or made of something more robust.
If you’re interested the spare part number is 159628.
Absolutely awfulAnonymous reviewerthe worst product ever.
fitted by the Ikea kitchen fitting team who stated they get lots of complaints about them.
the adjustment wheel simply has a life of it's own and every time you open and close the door, it sits in a different place.
it has now reached the point where the adjustment does nothing at all and the door simply wobbles side to side.
We have been in touch with Ikea for a resolution, but hot heard back from them yet.
do not use this product, you will regret it
PoorAnonymous reviewerPoorly designed. Makes a noise when it’s opened as the aluminum runners move over the plastic slides.
Happy so farAnonymous reviewerHappy so far
