    Overview

    The Fisher & Paykel 8.5kg Front Load Washing Machine with Steam Refresh is a hassle-free solution to help you get on top of your laundry chores. This model also features Steam Refresh which lets you deodorise and de-wrinkle lightly worn clothing or garments that have been in your wardrobe for a long time.

    Powered by Fisher & Paykel’s SmartDrive technology, this reliable washer provides exceptional fabric care while ensuring the machine runs smoothly, efficiently, and quietly. The control panel is thoughtfully designed to enable you to adjust every cycle with ease. Select from 13 wash programs to precisely clean and care for every load, whether you’re washing delicate woollens, bulky items like bedding, or you want to save time with Quick wash and Easy Iron cycles. Vortex Wash speeds up the washing process by forcing water and detergent from the bottom of the drum to maximise its cleaning performance.

    Engineered with convenience in mind, you can delay your wash to better suit your schedule or pause mid-cycle to add a forgotten garment. Combining ease-of-use, innovative technology, and efficiency, this front loader from Fisher & Paykel will ensure laundry day is always stress-free.
    Revitalise your garments with Steam Refresh

    Using the power of steam, you can freshen up lightly-soiled clothes, or any garments that have been sitting in your wardrobe for a long time with Steam Refresh. This also reduces creases so your clothes look immaculate and ready to wear.

    Optimise Wash options

    The handy Optimise Wash functions lets you adapt your wash program depending on your needs. Speed mode is designed to reduce cycle time, while Eco mode ensures greater efficiency to help you cut down on energy and water usage.

    Quiet SmartDrive motor

    Powered by Fisher & Paykel’s SmartDrive technology, this washing machine combines the benefits of smart electronics and a direct drive motor to achieve a gentle, quiet wash. In addition, this smart design senses every load to deliver optimal washing care.

    Add A Garment

    Missed an item from your wash? The Add a Garment function allows you to pause your wash cycle, open the door and add or remove items, then carry on washing.

    Efficient, quiet and easy to use
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new Fisher and Paykel washing machine has saved us so much on our water bill since we upgraded. I love that the settings are really easy to use and change. It's been a game changer with a little baby and doing lots of washing!

    Questions & answers

    Can I put a dryer on top of this washing machine? Janice · 2025-03-24
    Hi Janice, you can certainly place a dryer atop this machine. You just need to the ensure the width is no wider (to be fair, this is a very good width - we don't sell any dryers that exceed 600mm) and the washing machine can handle the depth of the dryer. If you give us a call anytime on 1300 000 500, we'd be happy to recommend some compatible dryers you can stack =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Does this machine have a manual door unlock when the door is locked shut and wont open? Mark · 2025-03-16
    Hi Mark, it does. This is a standard feature on all front load washing machines. However, there is the 'Add a Garment' function that unlocks the door within a few seconds if it's able to (if the water levels aren't at a certain point). There is also a manual unlock down near the water filter (for if there is a power outage or issue during the washing cycle). Hopefully this helps =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Does this machine only use cold water? Coral · 2025-02-19
    Hi Coral, this machine only has a cold water inlet. It heats the water itself (so you can still do warm/hot washes, it allows you to select your desired temperature in increments from Cold to 90-degrees). Hopefully this helps =) But if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to phone us anytime on 1300 000 500. Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Why does it not have a hot water hose? Jeana · 2025-01-20
    Hi Jeana, Thank you for your question. This model doesn't have a hot water connection as it does not require one as it will heat the water itself if hot water is required for a washing cycle. Hope this helps. Kind regards, Appliances Online Adam Vaccaro, Appliances Online
