I put this DishDrawer in my summer cottage and it is the best thing I ever did! Perfect for 2 people does a great job and is unbelievably quiet. So worth it!
Drawer dishwasher - pros: it is very deep and large platters, irregular shaped items such as food processor container, kitchen mixer bowl, large salad bowls etc all fit! that is a major plus. The cavity is somewhat configurable, improvements could be made here to allow for more flexibility. The cleaning power is good. The cons are around what could be done with this space and, with only three modes of user operation, I feel the user interface is very limited. There should be more options. For example, I should be able to customize heated dry on/off, and many other feature. Overall a good machine to fit into a small space.

Best dish washer, as a matter of fact I had my DW open & said to neighbor...pretty quiet right, they looked at me & said the drawer is open & I said YES that's how quiet it is when washing the dishes.
We’ve had several fisher & Paykel dish drawers over the years. We love them. They look great, work as well as a high end Bosch. The easy loading via the pull out drawer is so much nicer than groveling on the floor to load it.
When we had the kids here, we chose the double drawer model. Even then, most of the time we only used one drawer. When the kids left, we redid the kitchen. The tall single drawer is just right for us now The last one was in daily service for 12 years
I don’t wash pots and pans in the dishwasher, so can’t speak to that.
This is my fourth FP dish drawer! I had a double stack in our last house, hubby installed one on our boat and he installed this one on our RV. It is WONDERFUL not having to bend over to load/unload, so quiet no one knows it’s on AND it cleans AMAZING! No rinsing before wash, just scrape off loose bits of food. On top of that it uses very little water. Saves fresh water on boat and RV by not doing dishes by hand. Never have needed a maintenance call on any of them.
Great to never bend over to load the dishwasher. Amazing that so much can fit in a small space. Saves on water and can do a quick wash. Because it is the single drawer there is room under for storage.
