{"product_id":"lamona-flm0001-white-laundry-stacking-kit","title":"Lamona FLM0001 White Laundry Stacking Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe white Lamona stacking kit that lets a freestanding washing machine and tumble dryer sit one on top of the other instead of side by side. In a small utility room, a galley kitchen or a cupboard, that is the difference between fitting both machines in and having to choose. It also lifts the dryer door to a more comfortable working height, which is worth having if bending to a low drum is a problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMoulded ABS, fixings included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRead this first — what Howdens publish about compatibility, and what they do not\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe one thing Howdens state clearly.\u003c\/strong\u003e Their own user manual for the white FLM8803 heat pump tumble dryer — a single document covering both the black FLM8802 and the white FLM8803 — says: \u003cem\u003e\"The dryer can be stacked upon a LAMONA freestanding washing machine using stacking frame FLM0001 \/ FLM0002.\"\u003c\/em\u003e So Howdens confirm that this pair of frames is the correct part for stacking a Lamona freestanding dryer, the white one included. We will send you that manual if you would like to read it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat they do not state anywhere.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing Howdens publish says which of the two frames — white FLM0001 or black FLM0002 — goes with which machine colour, and nothing names the white FLM8702 washing machine or the white FLM8803 dryer against this kit. In fact this kit's own specification page lists its compatibility as \u003cem\u003e\"FLM8703 and FLM8802\"\u003c\/em\u003e, the two \u003cstrong\u003eblack\u003c\/strong\u003e machines, in text that is identical to the black kit's page. We have reproduced that row below exactly as published rather than quietly correcting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur reading, offered as our reading and not as Howdens' word.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the white frame in a white-and-black pair; the two frames publish identical dimensions and materials; and the white machines are the same appliances as the black ones in a different finish. So if you have the white FLM8702 washing machine and the white FLM8803 dryer, we believe this is the kit that matches them. \u003cstrong\u003eSend us the model numbers off both machines and we will confirm it with Howdens before you order.\u003c\/strong\u003e We would rather do that than have you unpack the wrong bracket set.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat Howdens do not publish, and what we will not invent\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNo maximum load.\u003c\/strong\u003e Their description says the kit \"supports the weight of two machines\" and gives no figure in kilograms. We are not going to quote one.

Do not read the three-year guarantee on the machines themselves as covering this accessory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA model number that contradicts the product code.\u003c\/strong\u003e The code beside the title, the web address and the colour all say FLM0001 and white, but the Model Number row on the same page reads FLM0002 — the black kit's code. It looks like a copy of the black record. We have listed it as published, and Howdens have been asked to confirm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe published dimensions do not fully reconcile.\u003c\/strong\u003e Howdens give a width of 605mm, a depth of 538mm and a height of 66mm, and separately a length of 490mm — four figures for a three-dimensional object. Plan around 605 × 538 × 66mm, which matches the footprint of a 600mm machine, and ask us if the 490mm matters to your installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel Number: FLM0002 \u003cem\u003e(as published by Howdens — see the note above)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Laundry Stacking Kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor Use With: FLM8703 and FLM8802 \u003cem\u003e(as published by Howdens — see the note above)\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour Description: White\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: ABS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied With: Fixings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 605mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDepth: 538mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 66mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 490mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight (Without Packaging): 1.176kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kit locates the dryer on top of the washing machine and holds it there; the fixings are supplied. Follow the instructions in the box, and bear in mind that a stacked heat pump dryer still collects its water in a tank that has to be emptied — the FLM8802 and FLM8803 have no plumbed drain option — so think about how easily you can reach that tank once the machine is at head height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy it here\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowdens sell to trade account holders only, so Lamona parts are difficult to buy if you are not in the trade.
