An innovative dishwasher from Australia’s most trusted appliance brand.
Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer™ Dishwashers are designed to make doing the dishes easier than ever before. The unique drawer based format has been designed with ergonomics in mind and minimises bending by requiring less movement to open, load and close.
✓ Ergonomic – as easy to open and close as a kitchen drawer, DishDrawer™ Dishwashers can be positioned at bench height requiring minimal bending.
✓ True Half Load – each drawer in a Double DishDrawer™ Dishwasher operates independently and holds a true half load for guilt-free small washes and fast turnaround of your dishes.
✓ Flexible – a variety of wash programs and adjustable racking means DishDrawer™ Dishwashers can accommodate everything from fine glass and crystal to heavily soiled pots and pans.
✓ Quiet – running at a very low decibel rate, these dishwashers do their job without making a fuss.
This is the most convenient dishwasher I have ever used, no steam in my face when I open my drawers, double washes at once, fantastic for parties no mess at the end of the night. Everything fits in with ease and its simple to place in the dish tabs or the powder whichever you prefer. It has multiple settings to suit your lifestyle I prefer the eco wash cycle.

Never have my dishes been so clean! It so amazing. The dishwasher is such a great addition to the kitchen. There has not been one speck of food on any of the plates and cutlery. Everything comes out clean and dry! I would highly recommend this dishwasher to any one.

The DishDrawer is so very quiet! We are now able to put the dishwasher on just as we go to bed without any disturbance. When we first had the DishDrawer installed we had to keep checking that it was still running as it was so much quieter than out previous dishwasher. This works perfectly with our lifestyle as we are now able to wake in the morning with all of the dishes done

The Fisher & Paykel Double DishDrawer has been the most fantastic addition to our busy kitchen. We pop the dishes in after breakfast and the kitchen bench is left all clean and tidy and by the time I return from school drop off the dishes are clean and dry and ready to unpack. It has certainly made me more efficient in my day. This is a must have for all busy households.

The look and design is fantastic. Our kitchen is a little dated. As a result the new DishDrawer is clearly to “fanciest” item in there. The new design is very sleek and simple.
I like how simple the DishDrawer is to use. Extremely user friendly from the first time we used it. Just can’t fault it.

The small drawer comes in very handy when we only have a few small meals or for cleaning the children’s dishes. This has taken the hassle out of either having to leave dirty dishes for long enough to have enough to fill a full load, or having to hand wash the smaller meals. Couldn’t be happier with our new DishDrawer!

Its a must have for all kitchens. The double drawer really makes life a lot easier. Using the top drawer, means we run the dish drawer once a day when it is full but not over loaded. As a result there is no wastage or spoilage. The other advantage to the top drawer mean you don’t have to bend your back. My family are all tall people so this is an advantage that is not lost on us!

We have owned a Fisher & Paykal Double Dish-Draw Dishwasher for almost 5 years and it is amazing! I love that it has an easy to use child lock so my toddler cannot interfere with a wash cycle. Dishes come out beautifully clean 99% of the time, and it fits a huge amount inside – more than you might think. I love that we can run just one draw at a time, and feel this saves some water.
The only downside is you can’t use just any dishwasher tablets or powder with it. Some brands are too foamy, made to meet the needs of full size dishwashers. Otherwise though, a great machine. Highly recommend.

A great feature of the double drawer is you can separate really filthy items, and things that only need a light clean, like cups, and glasses. They hold so much, having two drawers. They are so silent when working too. The double drawer by Fisher and Paykel has been around for years, and the latest models are incredibly environmentally friendly. I like that you can adjust amount of rinseaid to suit your water harshness. Another great point, is that you should only use powder in your dishwasher, as the tablets can clog the pipes after frequent use.

One of my favourite features is the fast wash option as with a busy family, I’m forever trying to get things done in a hurry, especially the washing up. Popping on the Fast Wash option means the washing up is done in no time and I don’t have to worry about having no clean dishes to use.
The Extra Dry option is also a huge helping hand. My old dishwasher didn’t dry anything properly, so I was forever drying all the plates, cutlery and glasses before putting them away. This problem is long gone with the Extra Dry option – all the kitchen items come out dry and ready to put away.

I love the double dish drawer. I got to know the product really well, as we had them at work – and they were awesome. We had three in our work kitchen, and the drawer action is smooth, the power and water use very economical, and the price is affordable. I like that smaller families have the option to not have to put on a massive dishwasher with few dishes in it. A quality Fisher and Paykel product!

I love my Fisher & Paykel, the best thing apart from how clean it gets everything is being able to use only 1 drawer when I need to as I usually have just my husband and myself. It really comes into its own when I have the grandkids, family and friends over, it’s a real workhorse – Economical, smart and super clean results

I’ve never in my life had a dishwasher. I’ve always been the family dishwasher. I never realised how much easier life would be with a dishwasher, so I kept putting off buying one. So glad I bought this one. It looks great in my kitchen. It’s super quiet. Very low on water consumption, important cos we are on rank water. And everything comes out shiney and squeaky clean

I love, love, love the Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer and I seriously miss my old one. When we buy a house down the track I’ll be making sure to get another. It’s great to be able to have a dishwasher in use and still be able to fill the second draw. You need never have dirty plates on the kitchen bench AT ALL. It’s great. The only problem that I did have is that some of the larger cooking pots didn’t quite fit into the DishDrawer but I think there are probably other regular dishwasher models that wouldn’t fit them either.

I have to mention what wonderful materials have been used to make this fisher and paykel dishwasher – I have had this dish washer for a few months now and it’s so easy to clean – especially the pull out draw – it’s like they have coated it in silicone so it’s easy to wipe clean. No spills tend to stick, which makes my life a lot easier!

We’ve had friends over today and my kitchen looks as clean as it did before they arrived! By throwing everything straight in top drawer of the dishwasher and putting it on straight away, half the clean up was already completed! Then, leftover glasses and dessert dishes went in the bottom drawer and I’ve got my feet up while the dishwasher does the hard work! I’d highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new dishwasher!

My experience with the Fished and Paykel Dish drawers has been incredibly positive. This dishwasher is a great size for a family and once I adjusted and tweaked the shelving etc to my liking, it really does work well for my families needs. I love how you can customise how you want the layout of your shelves to suit your familes needs.

We have had our dish drawers for over 12 years since we built our house and I cannot imagine ever going back to one door dishwasher. The convenience of running multiple cycles during a day and not leaving caked on dirty dishes waiting for it to fill up like a one door is great. Fantastic for parties and party prep. I love it so much so that in our new house we are going to build we are going to do 3 drawers, 2 in the kitchen and one in the butler pantry and we will also do the 2 side by side not one under each other.
Highly recommend.

We had our first party on the weekend since have the new dishdrawer installed. The dual drawers is fantastic. I cleared the table after entrée and threw everything in the smaller drawer. I turned it on as its so quiet no one even noticed. After desert everything went straight into the larger drawer. I turned that on also. This kept our kitchen looking clean and it meant by the time our guests left the dishes were already spotless and dry!

With my last dishwasher, I was forever playing tetris trying to fit my big pots and pans in, and most of the time, I would give up and wash them all by hand.
In the Fisher & Paykel Dishwasher, I can adjust the racks and flatten them down completely, which means I can fit all my large pots and pans in without any problems. This saves me a huge amount of time as it means I don’t have to hand wash them all or worry about them breaking any plates or glasses I have included in the wash.

With 3 kids we go through ALOT of plates, bowls, cups and cutlery everyday and my fabulous double dishdrawer dishwasher keeps up with us so well! Most of the kids stuff is plastic and my old dishwasher never managed to get them dry, I had to use a tea towel as I was packing away, but this is another thing that the fisher & paykel double dishdrawer has saved me time on! I no longer have to dry before putting away, even the plastics come out dry!
I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new dishwasher.

We love to entertain but one of my least favourite parts of having friends over is the clean up afterwards as there’s normally plates, cutlery and glasses EVERYWHERE! Enter the Fisher & Paykel Double DishDrawer Dishwasher!
After each course we just popped everything in the drawers and voila – no mess, no fuss! Then once everyone had left, I popped the dishwasher on and everything was taken care of. The kitchen was tidy (no dirty plates lying around), and I knew we’d have sparkling results in the morning, ready for the breakfast rush.

After a good 3 weeks of solid dual dishwashing – I thought I might try and clean the filter area as I noticed some residue on some dishes in a few of my most recent washes. I found it really challenging trying to remove the racks from both the dish drawers….and I think it’s because of the compartment where you put the dishwashing powder and rinse-aid….it stops the racks from easily lifting out so you can access the filter….sad face.

I own quite large wine glasses and the design of my previous dishwasher made it difficult to stack them, so I would often wash them by hand which was a very fiddly process.
The flexible racking of the Fisher & Paykel Double DishDrawer Dishwasher means I can adjust the height of the racks and include all sorts of glasses in the wash, whether they are stemless drinking glasses or my favourite long-stemmed wine glasses.

The ability to do smaller loads more frequently means my kitchen benches aren’t cluttered up with a heap of dirty dishes! It also means that I can quickly turnaround dishes that I’ve used for lunch, and they’re ready for me to use at dinner, without feeling guilty about running a normal sized dishwasher that’s half full. It’s such a great timesaver for my family and allows me extra time with the kids, instead of being stuck washing the dishes by hand!

How To Win The Family Wi-Fi War At Home (Even If You Have Teens)
Like most busy mums, I rarely gave our home internet any thought – until the complaints started. With two teenagers heading into their most important school years, me working from home and the whole family streaming and gaming more than ever, this year it became obvious our setup wasn’t keeping up with the pace of our family’s needs.
We recently upgraded to nbn® Fibre to the Premises (FTTP), and having access to lightning-fast speed options and a more reliable home connection has already made a huge difference. It made me realise how easy it is to sign up for a plan, forget about it, and not notice when it stops meeting the needs of the household – even though checking your current plan speeds, and whether you’re eligible for a fibre upgrade, is easy.
You might have heard the news – last September, nbn rolled out one of the biggest upgrades in its history. nbn accelerated wholesale speed on its HFC and FTTP networks, which nbn providers are now offering. Eligible households are enjoying smoother streaming, less lag while gaming, and quicker downloads, even across many devices at once.
So, what can you do to turn the complaints into internet that keeps up with your whole family?
First Thing’s First – Check Your Plan
Around 39% of Australians connected to nbn say they don’t know what speed tier they’re on.* That means a lot of families could be on plans that don’t really fit the way they use the internet today.
If your household has multiple bedrooms, devices and people online at the same time, it’s worth checking if your current plan is up to speed – literally! Faster speeds can help make a difference, from smoother study sessions and video calls, quicker downloads, and fewer arguments about who’s ‘slowing the Wi-Fi down’.
With the acceleration of nbn’s wholesale speeds on the HFC and FTTP networks last September, it makes sense to check if your plan is still right for your family’s needs and if you’re eligible for a fibre upgrade, all in one go.
Make the most of your plan speeds
Your internet plan is only one piece of the puzzle. A great nbn experience starts with the right internet setup. It’s important to check if your in-home setup is helping you make the most of your plan speeds.
I’m the first to admit that our home setup hadn’t kept up with the growing number of connected devices in our house. And it’s a common story – 62% of Australians haven’t changed their internet setup in the last two years*. And that’s despite the average Aussie home downloading eight times more data than a decade ago.
Here are three tips that helped me improve our home setup:
Wi-Fi router placement – Placing your Wi-Fi router in a central, elevated spot that’s open and uncluttered gives better coverage than if it’s tucked away in a cupboard or behind furniture.
Wi-Fi router age – If your Wi-Fi router is more than 5 years old, you may want to consider if it’s still suitable for your family’s needs. Your choice of Wi-Fi router, and how you set it up in your home, could limit you from accessing the maximum speed offered by your plan.
Wi-Fi coverage – Distance from your Wi-Fi router, and obstacles between you, will impact the strength of signal around your home. If you live in a larger or multi-storey home, you might want to consider additional wired connection points, or a mesh network to help strengthen your Wi-Fi signal throughout your home as your family members move around the house.
For more tips on optimising your home setup and ways to make the most of nbn’s wholesale speeds, visit the nbn Optimisation Hub.
Why Do Faster Internet Speeds Matter?
For my family, it’s all about advancing along with the pace of the world – and keeping the peace! The internet plan your family signed up to when your kids were in primary school may not be the best plan now they’re in high school. The number of times my kids would argue if one was downloading something large and the other was trying to game or stream started to get ridiculous!
Higher speed tiers mean more capacity so thatyou can stream, work from home and game online all at the same time with minimal disruptions. It’s about everyone being connected at the same time – whether that’s through smart TVs, tablets, laptops, desktops, gaming consoles or smart phones.
It allows my teenagers to download their projects faster and upload their homework more efficiently. It gives me the opportunity to work from home with fewer interruptions. And it means everyone in the family is connected in whatever way they want when enjoying their leisure time – streaming, gaming, browsing – without impacting anyone else’s experience because there’s enough bandwidth for my whole family at the same time.
What’s next?
As we head into the final school term of the year, it’s a great time to ask: is your home internet keeping up with your family? A quick check of your plan and setup could make everyday online life a whole lot smoother at home.
Here’s how to get started:
Step one: Take a moment to review your in-home setup to make sure you’re getting the best from your connection.
Step two: Check your address to see what speeds are available, and whether you’re eligible for an upgrade to full fibre.
Step three: Speak to your service provider about your current plan and whether it’s meeting your family’s internet needs.
When was the last time you looked into the speeds you could be getting? Check your address and let us know in the comments.
*Source: nbn Customer Research & Insights In-Home Quant Survey October 2024 n=6,225
# nbn is a wholesaler. Speak to a provider about a plan that suits your needs.
% Your experience, including the speeds actually achieved over the nbn network, depends on the nbn access technology and configuration over which services are delivered to your premises, whether you are using the internet during the busy period, and some factors outside of nbn’s control (like your equipment quality and set-up, software, chosen broadband plan, age of device(s) and/ or how your provider designs its network). For nbn Fixed Wireless, speeds may also be impacted by the number of concurrent users on the nbn Fixed Wireless network, including during busy periods (7-11pm).

Ahhh I remember when we had dial up as a kid and if someone wanted to make a phone call you would get kicked off. Those were the days! We don’t seem to have any issues with our plan. We have NBN to our premises and now my daughter has her laptop and we all have Googles in all the main areas, plus streaming on the TV. Our internet has never missed a beat!
I do think that companies deliberately make it quite hard to compare and understand plans as a way of discouraging you from changing. But it should probably be one of those things you check up on every year or two – whether you’re on the right plan for you and your situation.
Lots of great advice here truely. The plan is only the half of it and its then looking at your router, how much it can handle with so many devices connected at once. Its something i definitely should be upgrading but i just know its going to be such a pain to change everything over
I remember my husband talking about this upgrade recently and said that we can’t get FTTP in our area. We have Fibre to the Node, which is not as good, but still okay for our household.
Fibre To The Premises is definitely the way to go. We wanted to get it in our last rental, as our internet provider was offering a better value plan with free upgrades, but it would have meant needing to do work in the walls. Hopefully closing on our home shortly and it’ll be one of the first things I organise
One of the rare families without WiFi?! I do work from home, but only one day a week, so hot spot from my phone! My little man isn’t in primary school yet, so appreciate I’ll need it down the track no doubt! But want to put it off for a long as possible.
This has not been something I have ever really considered. I know when i signed up for internet i had options but I have not considered it since. Now that I do work from home more and my child loves games that need the internet, this article is timing and has made me think about whether the speed we have is right for our family. Thanks for sharing this article, it has got me thinking.
I have to admit that I haven’t thought about this very much. I just find things like internet plans and speeds deeply, deeply boring. But I can see that it’s important, and this article has reminded me that I probably should pay some attention to this and find out details and whetehr we need changes.
Interesting ! I haven’t heard of this nbn plan yet, in fact I’ve no clue on what type of plan we are. But we do have multiple bedrooms, devices and family members online at the same time indeed for study, down loads, work, online meetings, gaming and leisure of all kinds.
Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer™ Dishwashers are designed to make doing the dishes easier than ever before. The unique drawer based format has been designed with ergonomics in mind and minimises bending by requiring less movement to open, load and close.
