The 7 Best Integrated Dishwashers With A Cutlery Tray
Dishwashers are an essential part of any modern kitchen. For a sleek finish and easy access, many customers opt for an integrated dishwasher with a cutlery tray.
An integrated dishwasher, as opposed to a free-standing dishwasher, has a cabinet door attached to its front. This means it’s tucked away and blends in easily with your design.
A cutlery tray is a shallow plastic shelf at the top of your dishwasher, used for holding your forks and knives. This is instead of the typical basket that you see in most dishwashers. This not only saves space but also prevents trapped foods and dangerous knife placements.
In this post, I’ll take you through a few of my favourite integrated dishwashers with a cutlery tray and share the features that make them stand out. By the end, you’ll be able to pick the best option for you.

Place settings: 10
Energy rating: A++
