I am not a professional installer, but I have installed Ikea kitchens. I would not recommend doing this for a few reasons. 1) In a standard kitchen, the dishwasher fits flush with the countertop - not with other cabinet faces - so the Ikea front would probably stick out beyond the counter. Make sure you measure the depth very carefully and allow for ample clearance in the back of the appliance (check with Samsung). 2) Ikea fronts should be screwed onto appliances. There are no holes for screws in the front of this appliance. 3) The dishwasher has an exceptionally clean and slick front. It will blend in perfectly with Ikea cabinets appearance-wise and look quite stylish. If you MUST have an "all the same front custom" appearance, purchase an Ikea dishwasher. It's a matter of personal taste, but you're not fooling anyone going with a super expensive custom cabinetry look but using Ikea cabinets. I like Ikea - but there's a big leap between custom and modest, yet practical. I saw a million dollar home with an Ikea kitchen and could tell right away. It didn't do the house any favors.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
