doesn't do what is advertised – Very expensive and kept breaking down It was fixed 4 times until finally after some to and froing a refund was given and the machine was taken away Sorry but I won't be buying this brand again

SO VERY DISAPPOINTED – Our third (& first disappointment) in F&P dishdrawers. This machine was an unacceptably poor washer & really it is still doesn't meet the standard of the others we have owned! Previously food stuck to dishes, cutlery needed rewashing glasses streaky, just dreadful. Since the factory upgrade,(done under warranty) both black boxes were replaced,… Read more

it washes a little better but only on the longest cycle, which we have never had to use in earlier models. Glasses on the second level are not bad, crockery & cutlery acceptable, We don't wash pots and pans this machine is struggling to do crockery & cutlery. We are unable to use the short cycle for anything wash quality is shockingly poor.

To alert F&P to our malaise, it needed a complaint from us & an smart repairman to pick up that there was a factory bulletin regarding this model. F&P obviously don't do factory recalls?

It is very quiet and the size suits us, as dishes were purchased with this machine in mind. So far no mechanical issues. The white finish matches the two pack painted cupboards, it does look good in the kitchen, too bad its a poor performer?

It replaces a 12 mth old-top-of-the-range Smeg, a poor decision, but too late!

Good for 4 years – Our dishwasher has been great starting to have a few problems now but we live in a high calcium area water wise The only thing i have noticed is mine and my friends bi=oth of us had the handle on the bottom drawr bust off it doesn't stop the operations of the machine but you do have to glue it back down  Show details

Dont buy one! – We have had 3 double dish drawers in the past and they were wonderful. Have just replaced a 2 year old Whirlpool which was still working - We gave it away, I am on the verge of asking for it back. The new model is shocking, doesnt wash things properly unless I scrub them before putting in the dishwasher. Doesnt dry properly and the fan runs for 2… Read more

hours after finishing a cycle unless you manually turn it off. They seem to have changed the configuration of the draw and I cant get large items in. Can only put plates on one side of the draw. My poor husband hears how much I hate this machine every time I use it. A total waste of money, and more expensive than other machines........

Love my dishdrawer – My last F&P dishdrawer packed it in after 10 years. Debated whether to get another one. After a lot of research decided to get the stainless steel dishdrawer. Couldn't be happier very quiet, washes everything very clean and dries amazingly even plastics, which my other old one didn't. Thoroughly recommend.

It only has one job and doesnt do it well – We recently bought the DD60DAW8 dish drawer, and want a waste of money. This machine is complete junk, it doesn't wash well, you can only stack plates in every 2nd spot or they will not be clean. The washers are in the bottom so it has gravity working against it, but more often than not plates come out like they were never even wet. I don't… Read more

bother using it anymore as I have to rewash 1/2 the items in it anyway.

The wash arms are easily fouled by items loaded, there is only a few mm clearance and there is no warning alarm if that happens so you need to check they can spin freely every time after loading otherwise you will waste the energy and consumables from another bad wash.
