    Pros: Everything

    Not very much height.
    Not a very strong machine.

    Pros: If it works, it's quiet and gets dishes clean.

  • An extremely frustrating product - expensive to run with frequent repairs needed

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 22, 2009
    Pros: I suppose the double drawers can be useful.
    Cons: Unreliable and expensive to repair all the time. Mediocre performance doesn't match price.

    Summary: On the whole this has been a highly frustrating product, with many major annoyances; when forking out large wads of money for a 'premium' brand like Fisher and Paykel, one would hope to be ensured of a pleasant owning experience. In fact, this is one of ... read more

  • Stay Away From this Company!

    Pros: Appearance!
    Cons: Quality, Sevice and functionality.
    Please read my letter to F&P and judge for yourself!

    Summary: To Whom it may concern,I would like to take a moment to sincerely thank you for refusing to stand behind your sub-standard, inferior product (dishdrawer DD602).  It has given me the time to research your company and uncover just how ... read more

  • Treat it well and it works great

    Mar 8, 2008
    Pros: Low energy use, easy to load and unload, looks great
    Cons: A little bit of a learning curve, leaks if overloaded, no disposer

    Summary: A lot of the complaints here are about leaks. We had a leak the first few months after buying it. These could probably be avoided. The technician came out, got everything dried out on the unit and then gave me the best advice for this machine, ... read more

    Jan 21, 2008
    Pros: Appearance-asthetically it fit very well in my remodeled kitchen and small loads are possible.
    Cons: It does not clean the dishes, platters do not fit in either of the drawers

    Summary: I would NEVER, EVER purchase this product again. It does not clean the dishes. I have had this dishwasher for 2 1/2 years, had 5 service calls and the dishes still do not come out clean. The servicemen have come to "fix" it but cannot give me an ... read more

    Pros: Stylish, good warranty
    Cons: Expensive, needs the warranty, doesn't clean or dry well, prone to breakdowns.

    Summary: I loved the design of this dishwasher. I read the reviews and saw that some people had trouble with it. I also saw that some people loved it. I took a chance on it. We have struggled with it for about 4 years and are giving up. It is underpowered. If you ... read more

    Pros: Great looks. Convenience of two dishwashers. Quiet operation
    Cons: Temperamental if improperly loaded or if dishes not rinsed properly High maintenance

    Summary: With all that implies... First, it looks great! It cleans well, and is extremely quiet. I recommend using Cascade Complete powder detergent. Do not use liquid detergents. Now for the bad. This dishwasher is like a late 60's Jaguar E-Type with ... read more

    Pros: stylish, fits awkward spaces
    Cons: expensive, doesn't wash plastic or dry properly

    Summary: We have an old (1720) house with a foundation built on rock, so many kitchen appliances didn't fit under our counters. The dishdrawer seemed like the perfect solution to our problem. We balked at the price, but the stylish look and the ecologically ... read more

    Dec 17, 2002
    Pros: No bending over for dishware. Very easy to use. Quiet. Thorough.
    Cons: None

    Summary: We live "off the grid" using solar panels for our source of electricity and catchment water, well, for our water. So the Fisher & Paykel energy efficient DishDrawer is perfect for us. It cleans and dries beautifully and we have only used the "fast" ... read more

    Pros: Easy to Use, 2 Dishwashers in one, creates more drawer space
    Cons: More difficult than average dishwashers to install - marginally

    Summary: Just a great idea, 2 dishwashers in one, no need to continue stack and unstack, we use one for dirty and one for clean, then we rotate, saves arguments over who is stacking and unstacking, simple to use, cleans dishes well and was quieter than our old ... read more

    Pros: Cleans dishes well, quiet, practical for the kosher kitchen
    Cons: Broke early, long time delay for repair, service people lack familiarity with unit

    Summary: Our model broke less than 1 month after we bought it. In the middle of the night, while the unit was doing a timer wash, I woke to hear it beeping incessantly, indicating a error fault which was unclear as to the cause by the instructions. The only way ... read more

    Summary: I have experience with both the previous model DD602I and the newer DD603I. Fisher & Paykel have done an excellent job with the new model DD603. When I purchased the first model DD602I dishdrawers my house was under construction. I used them for a short ... read more

    Pros: Advanced Technology cleans dishes with 4 gallons of water.
    Cons: There is a right way and a wrong way to load this dishwasher.
