A:AnswerYes. Our Fisher & Paykel dishwasher has served us for 20 years. Unable to purchase boxed powdered detergent—only pods— at Costco any longer, I called customer service and was told to just drop one of the pods in the silverware basket. Works fine.
A:AnswerEither your top or bottom pump motor is damaged. You need to pre rinse your dishes an cutlery befor washing . If not screen where motor is located will clog & burn out that motor. You need to do this monthly.
A:AnswerYes, they have several wash options that can be set for each drawer. They operate independent of each other and can run run at different stages of their cycles at the same time.
A:AnswerWe have had one of these dishwashers for 16 years. When I clean the front, I use a Norwex Stainless Steel Cloth and a Norwex window cloth to buff. It cleans beautifully and quickly. One wipe with warm water and one dry with the window cloth.
A:AnswerThe control for both drawers is on the front of the top drawer. You select which drawer you're using by pressing the first button on the left to toggle between the top and bottom drawer. The icon on the display will tell you which draw you're controlling. The upper or lower end of the icon will be brighter depending on which drawer you are selecting.
A:AnswerYes,
This will perfectly fit under a standard kitchen counter.
Listing shows 36" which means you can adjust upto 36".
I was worried about the height too, then found out this answer from bestbuy CC.
Any way it fit nicely in our kitchen with standard counter height.
A:AnswerAccording to this, it says it is. 34-36 1/8”. https://www.fisherpaykel.com/us/dishwashing/contemporary-dishwashers/double-dishdrawer-dishwasher-tall-sanitize-dd24dchtx9-n-81600.html
A:AnswerNO, I was disipointed to learn this, until I understood why. The interior is a one piece poly material that insures no leaks, which is why Paykel chose this over SS
A:AnswerIt has a receptacle for powder, but it provides a little tray that you can insert into the flatware cage that allows you to use tablet or packet soap as well.
A:AnswerYes! Better than most standard washers. They come with various inserts that are easy to put in and take out. With most or all inserts removed, I can use a drawer for cookware that never fit in a standard dishwasher, such as large skillets, my wok, my stock pot, etc. I have nerve problems in my hands and just can’t do much hand washing. Like any other dishwasher, I recommend washing cookware before any residue dries and hardens, or do a rinse only cycle to soften them before a regular cycle. I had my stacked drawers dishwasher for 10 years and miss them! I recently sold that home, snd when I replace the dishwasher in the home I bought, it will be a Fisher & Paykel stacked drawer set.
A:AnswerThe manufacturer does not recommend using the soap cubes. Their recomendation is to use powdered dishwasher soap. I use one teaspoon of powdered soap in each of the two soap receptacles.
