Fisher & Paykel DishDrawerâ„¢ dishwashers offer a flexible alternative to the traditional dishwasher. Designed around independent drawers, they make it possible to organise dishwashing around your kitchen, your household and the size of each load. Available as single or double drawers, and in integrated or contemporary configurations, DishDrawerâ„¢ dishwashers combine ergonomic access with sophisticated cleaning technology. Double models can operate each drawer independently, allowing different wash cycles to run at the same time. When choosing a DishDrawerâ„¢ dishwasher, consider whether a single or double configuration best suits your household, the available space in your kitchen and whether you prefer an integrated or contemporary finish. It is also worth considering the types of dishes you wash most often, the capacity you need and which cleaning or drying functions would be most useful to you.
What is a DishDrawerâ„¢ dishwasher?
Unlike a conventional dishwasher with one large drop down door, a DishDrawerâ„¢ dishwasher opens like a drawer. This places the dishwasher at a more convenient height for loading and unloading and makes it easier to access individual loads. Single DishDrawer models are particularly useful where space or capacity requirements are more limited. Double DishDrawer models provide two independent washing zones, allowing you to wash smaller loads separately or run two different cycles simultaneously.
Single or double DishDrawer?
Choosing between a single and double DishDrawer depends largely on how you use your kitchen. A single DishDrawer dishwasher can be a practical choice for smaller households, compact kitchens or situations where a separate dishwasher drawer is required as part of a larger kitchen layout. Whereas a double DishDrawer dishwasher provides two independent drawers, giving you greater flexibility for busy households. You can wash different types of dishes separately and, on compatible models, run different cycles at the same time. The drawer format can also make it easier to manage smaller loads without waiting for a conventional dishwasher to fill.
Integrated DishDrawer dishwashers
For a streamlined kitchen, an integrated DishDrawer dishwasher can be fitted behind custom cabinetry panels, allowing the appliance to blend into the surrounding kitchen design. Fisher & Paykel also offers contemporary built under models where the appliance itself forms part of the kitchen aesthetic. This means you can choose a DishDrawer based not only on capacity and functionality, but also on how you want your dishwasher to look within the kitchen.
Designed for everyday dish care
Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer dishwashers use intelligent wash systems designed to adapt cleaning to the load. Selected models use sensing technology to adjust factors such as water flow, temperature and wash duration, while specialised cycles and drying technology provide additional flexibility. The drawers are also designed around everyday ergonomics, with easy access making loading and unloading more natural.
