Love my DishDrawers! I recently sold my home with a 9 year old one of these and knew I wanted another one in my new construction home. These new ones are near silent. They are solid built and one of the best dishwashers on the market. Yes, they are expensive but quality and nice things are expensive. The functionality of being able to do two separate loads is the best. It’s so easy to load and unload. You won’t regret buying this dishwasher! Love it! Can’t get over how quiet this is compared to my older model.

Quiet and cleans well. I live the flexibility of 2 independent drawers. They are esthetically beautiful and compliments any decor. I reccommend. Be sure to read all the instructions and restrictions or you can easily viod your warranty.

Seriously, you’ll like this dish washer. It’s sleek, unique, functional, and exudes quality.
The price was a bit concerning at first: I regret nothing and may go so far as to name the dish washer …
This Fisher & Paykel unit replaced an entry-level Whirlpool model that came with my new construction.
I was somewhat skeptical purchasing the F&P unit sight unseen but wow am I not only satisfied but I am impressed.
The build quality of this unit is top-notch: the stainless steel of the handles feels like a legitimate chunk of metal, not like the cheap sheet metal that’s over most of my appliances like my fridge.
The controls are highly intuitive and feel top quality as well.
I’ve done about 10 different loads in both drawers; it took a few loads to determine the appropriate amount of detergent and drying additive to use per load on the “fast” cycle, but after I figured this out (it’s a function of how hard one’s water is), the dishes came out 95% dry with absolutely no spotting / residue.
For customers who have challenges with getting their dishes clean and dry with this unit, I’d suggest they read the manual for specific instructions on how to load the dish washer based on the spray patterns of the rotating wash head. Basically, if you really liked high school geometry, you’ll REALLY LOVE LOADING THIS DISH WASHER :)
The benefit of this unit boils down to having two discrete dish washers built into one: while I don’t yet have a good system for allocating certain dishes to certain drawers, I can say that I’ve been sticking my coffee mugs / drinking glasses in the bottom unit while I place larger items like full-size dinner plates and chargers in the top unit.
I would recommend this to a friend

I live alone in a small condo. Never used the old 30 + year-old dishwasher because it was too large. This gets the dishes clean and fully dry. Love the option for eco wash and small loads and is very quiet!

Excellent product, exceeds our expectations.The local store was helpful when we needed it. The installation contractor was terribly disrespectful, however the installation was completed to our satisfaction. If I could rate the installer I would give them a poor.

We purchased a FP dish drawer in 2004 and it had a lot of issues in the first year. FP stood behind it and after correcting the problems we got 15 years of service out of the unit.
We decided to replace the dish drawer with FP's updated unit. The first one that came had water running out of the soap dispenser in the bottom drawer and an F24 error code. Worked with FP customer service (nearly impossible to get hold of) to determine that a valve motor had failed and it would require servicing by a factory technician. They scheduled the visit for two weeks in the future (earliest possible service date).
Called BestBuy and they recommended just replacing the lemon with a new unit. It could be there in two weeks. No brainer, went with the replacement (new) unit. We have had the new unit installed now for over a week and love it!! Very quiet and cleans very nicely. Everything spotless and shiny. We were used to the noisy old FP unit that did not do that great of a job.
It is unfortunate that nobody else makes a dish drawer. We would have went with a different manufacturer if we could have found one. That is just based on our experience with our first dish drawer in 2004. The first new unit arriving DOA just reinforced our opinion that FP has some serious quality control issues.
Nonetheless we are very pleased with this new unit. It is a huge upgrade from the one we purchased in 2004. Just cross your fingers and hope you get a good one right out of the gate.
I would have given it five stars but had to nick the score for FP's quality issues and nearly inaccessible customer service.

Absolutely love our drawer dishwasher
The drawer is so convenient and easy to use, no more having a full pull down door sticking out in our kitchen
Being able to do a small wash is great
Using both drawers on different settings, deep cleaning for pots and pans and light cleaning in the other drawer is fabulous
Can’t think why we didn’t choose a draw dishwasher before
You don’t know until you know!

If you are looking for the ability to do different types of loads (light and dirty, or fine dishes and heavy pots) at the same time or if you usually do smaller loads more often and only large loads occasionally, this is the dishwasher for you. The interior of the dishwasher and the racks are amazingly designed. We can fit way more dishes bowls and cups that we thought would be possible in each drawer. The adjustable side shelves allowing for larger items below and then shorter items like coffee cups are so smartly designed.
Further, this dishwasher cleans things perfectly. No spots, no missed areas and no running the load a second time to try to get it clean. And it runs on the quiet side for a dishwasher except for an occasional noise here or there when the pump runs to drain water.
Highly recommended.

No bending required to load the top drawer! Our dishwasher in our last house was raised so we didn't have to bend and so I'm spoiled! Couldn't put a raised unit in this house, so I opted for the 2-drawer model. Love having the option of running a small load by just filling up one drawer. We only use 2 drawers when we have company. I like the adjustable racks and side shelves. It's very quiet and it make a cute sound (like R2D2) when you open it. Make sure the installers test both drawers before they leave.

First dishwasher! Loving it!
I've heard mixed reviews for this dishwasher, but think that the positives outweigh the negative. But so far so good.
Down side is that my bigger pots don't fit with dishes...
but other than that, everything comes out squeaky clean.
It's extremely quiet, won't notice it on except when it first starts up and the occasional swishing of suds/water.
It's a little pricier than the regular dishwasher, but love the option of a true half load.

Best Dishwasher Ever! This is my 2nd Fisher & Paykel & the 1st one lasted 20 years! (prob. could have lasted longer had I run a descale cycle on a regular basis).
We love the dish drawers! Heaven for people with back issues. Gets dishes crystal clean even if they have dried on food. It's so helpful to use 2 separate cycles at the same time! This is the kind of upgrade that once you have in your house you can't go back..... It's seriously the best f-ing thing I've ever splurged on.
Had the new model for a year now. So many new features make the drawers work even better. If you have the $$ my advice is go for it. Like I said I've had the new one for a year & still going strong. My only hope is that this dishwasher lasts like the previous F&P! I'm hopeful I'll get another 15-20 years out of this one. Really, not that expensive if you think about buying 2-3 cheaper ones in the same 20yrs.
Thanks for reading! Long & short of it- if you have the cash to drop on a luxury dishwasher Fisher & Paykel are the best!

This was worth the wait. So quiet. Washes well and has a good amount of capicity despite having two separate drawers. Love being able to wash just one drawer or set different cycles depending on loads.

Really like this dishdrawer, this new model get dishes very clean and like how all the controls are on top. There are just 2 of us do it’s the perfect size and love being able to store dirty dishes in the non washing drawer rather than having them sit out. Would buy again.

This is the significant upgrade from my 13-15 year old Fisher & Paykel. I really like the two drawer convenience. This newer model is quieter, more efficient and cleans better.

Sleek and easy to use. Super quite. It is easy to use some people reviewed that it was hard to use but I totally disagree. Super easy to use and understand!

Works better than our former one. Very quiet and uses very little water. This is our second Fisher and Paykel dishwasher and we like them so well that both our daughters also purchased one.

This dishwasher is built very well and can hold a lot of stuff. It’s very quiet and washes very well. I’ve had 3 other brands of dishwashers and this by far is the best one.

Wry impressed with how quiet the machine is. If it wasn’t for the countdown clock on the front we wouldn’t know it’s on. Love the ease of loading the draws and no heavy door to bend down and try to close. Smartest purchase ever. Plus I don’t have to wait a week to wash dishes with the 2 draws I can wash every other day. Dish come out sparkling! And dry!
