I had been eyeing these drawer-style dishwashers for a while now, after talking to a friend who owned one. Our dishwasher wasn't old by any means, but it never managed to get dishes clean. We really love the pull-out drawer style, which creates a much easier pathway through our kitchen. One of the problems we were trying to solve was the tight space between our cabinets and the island area. This solved the problem beautifully. After conducting extensive research, we selected this particular unit since it has a deeper top drawer to accommodate larger items. After reviewing how to load it correctly, we've had nice, clean dishes every time. And it's so quiet you barely know it's running. This unit was on backorder, so we waited a longer period of time than originally scheduled to receive it, but it was certainly worth the wait.

I ultimately ended up choosing this Fisher & Paykel double drawer dishwasher out of necessity more than anything else. The house we moved into had custom cabinetry and our existing dishwasher was a Kitchen Aid double drawer dishwasher. These double drawer dishwashers typically run a little smaller than the standard size dishwashers, so I was pretty limited in my dishwasher selection based on the smaller than standard cutout size available. There were other options available- some not available for a number of months due to supply chain issues while there were others we just liked less. Now that I've provided some context for my selection, let me touch on a few pros and cons of this dishwasher: Pros: - Beautiful, sleek dishwasher- I love how the dishwasher is flush with my cabinetry and doesn't extend out at all. The stainless steel gives it a nice modern feel and gives an overall very clean looking presentation. - Double drawers- Since we have a small family, the double drawer function works great for us. The smaller load allows us to easily run smaller loads as we desire without having to feel bad about not filling out the dishwasher completely. - Quiet- the wash cycles for the dishwasher are relatively quiet and does not end up being much of a distraction - Dishes and glasses come out very clean. The water in our city is very hard, so using rinse aid is a must. With that said, things can still come out differently based on the dishwasher and we noticed a considerably positive difference between the lack of hard water spots and stains now compared to our previous dishwasher. Cons: - Expensive. The price tag here is hard to get behind. It totally makes sense that a double drawer dishwasher would be more expensive as there are double the parts in some case, but based on my research, there are plenty of options available at half the price that seem like they would work just as well and may even have better options. -Technology- Very standard features here. As noted above, I think there are plenty of cheaper dishwashers available that have more options and features. - More likely to have problems- With two drawers in the dishwashers instead of one, you have certain things that you need double of compared to a normal dishwasher. The more parts required, the higher the chance of something breaking or not functioning properly. Nothing in particular to note that might be breaking, but I think it's a thought worth keeping in mind when determining your choice of dishwasher. - Noisy. While the wash cycle is relatively quiet and not a distraction at all, the drainage and drying process is on the louder side. Granted, I'd rather have this part of the process loud than the wash process, but still worth noting that it is rather loud when the drawer is draining the water. All in all, I gave this dishwasher a 4 star rating as we have been happy with the dishwasher overall, but still aren't convinced the price justifies the sleek design or double drawers. The cost to install and remove a dishwasher adds up quick at Best Buy, so I would highly suggest looking into purchasing a TotalTech membership as the price is pretty similar and you get more warranty, return, and support benefits. One final thing to note, when ordering this dishwasher online, the "Smart Choice - Universal 6' Deluxe Dishwasher Install Kit - Multi" was an essential add on. I believe everything from this kit that you would need for the installation is already provided with the dishwasher as my installation technician did not touch it at all, so it's worth checking to see if you can just get away with not ordering it at all or you can just return the kit back to Best Buy afterwards like I did.

The market for 36" Induction ranges is pretty slim in the US. Of the brands/models available, some are poorly reviewed. We wanted a range with control knobs as opposed to touch-buttons which reviewers say are difficult to manage, especially if they get wet. We came across this F&P through Internet searching, and pulled the trigger. It looks and works great! (we got the classic design). It's easy to clean, and heat control on the induction top is excellent. Note that only certain cookware will work with the induction top. It needs to be magnetic, and how strongly magnetic matters. We had one pan that was slightly magnetic, and it did not work well. There are multiple modes for the induction cooktop including combining heating areas into a "super area", as well as pushing extra power to one of the areas (while constraining others). For the most part, we don't use those. With the right cookware, things heat up really quickly. The oven is really nice as well (although smaller than some of the equivalent ranges) with lots of cooking modes. The cooking shelves slide out on rails really nicely. The fan will turn on right when you start the oven, and continue after the oven is turned off until it cools. It's not very loud, and completely acceptable in my opinion. The only thing that could be added is a light switch for the oven. The light will turn on when you open the oven door. There is a setting to have the light illuminated all the time when the oven is on, but nothing to intermittently turn the light on without opening the door should you want to check on what's happening in the oven. Also, depending on the cookware, and the induction intensity, the cooktop can make some high pitched sounds when engaged. Our kids complain about it sometimes. We added the riser in the back (separate purchase) since our backsplash didn't go down low enough. The range height is adjustable to match the countertops. This range comes with an electrical outlet plug. BestBuy will typically add plug to the order with the assumption that the appliance will need one. The BestBuy cable is not needed (they will accept it as a return, but it's a hassle). All in all, we're very happy with this range. I never get extended warranties, but did get one for this as induction ranges in general have close to 10% repair rates.

I love this dishwasher!! It’s so good to have the FIsher & Paykel Dish drawers again! We’ve owned this model in two previous homes, and I am THRILLED to have it back! We’ve purchased this model three times; two times in new construction homes that we sold after living in for 2 years. Our current home had a dishwasher that stopped working and I immediately knew what I was replacing it with! I knew I loved this dishwasher from my previous experiences, but I forgot how much I loved it until I got it back! You will not be disappointed! Runs quiet, dries well, sanitizes, easy to load/ unload, and it’s beautiful! I also love that you can run a small load on not feel guilty because you didn’t fill a whole dishwasher. Capacity is split between two drawers instead of one whole unit.

Our old dishwasher gave out, and we had a chance to go with a double drawer model. Ours is a small family of 3, and my brother has this same dishwasher and they are a family of 5. The flexibility of the two drawers is huge. The wash cycle is flexible and the timer is a huge help. Dishes come out very clean, with the odd exception of plates that might be close to the drawer wall. Manufacturer says always make sure things are “facing down” like glasses and bowls, and it makes a big difference. We’ve run both drawers simultaneously with no issue but usually only do one at a time. We bought magnets that say “clean/dirty” with a slide cover, which we put on each drawer which makes the management of them so much easier. The installation was really smooth and was impressed with their professionalism. We needed to have a hammer switch and a new outlet installed to bring things up to code, and then team handled this with no issue. Loved the experience. We are just wrapping up completely updating all our appliances, and have gone through Best Buy for all of them (fridge, washer/dryer), and could not say more about the high quality delivery experience we’ve had, as well as the quality of the products.
