    Nice and quiet.
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s really quiet especially when it spins, does a good job. It’s one of the basic models but has a reasonable choice of washes.

    Washing machine
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not to happy about having to do a warm to hot wash when I use washing powder because it's not rinsing properly with cold water.

    Loving my new Fisher & Paykel washing machine
    I've been using my new Fisher & Paykel washing machine for nearly a month now, and I honestly can't fault it. Has every setting you need, easy to operate, washes well and super quiet. So quiet that I can leave the laundry door open when its washing and you can barely hear it.

    Questions & answers

    What dryer would sit on top of this model best? Sonya · 2025-05-17
    Hi Sonya, the ideal dryer for this model would be the Fisher & Paykel Series 5 8kg Heat Pump Dryer DH8060P3 with the Fisher & Paykel Stacking Kit 428122. Hopefully this helps =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    How many years does a fisher pykel front loader last, mine is 5 years old and playing up now Shem · 2024-05-24
    Hi Shem, it's not abnormal for a washing machine to require some level of service at the five year mark. Getting your machine regularly serviced (every two years or so from this point) will prolong its life. If you do multiple loads of laundry a day, this level of wear and tear is to be expected. Your safest bet would be to phone Fisher & Paykel on 1300 650 590 to organise for one of their authorised service technicians to come out and service the machine, to get it back to running at full steam. Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    I'm looking at the 7 or 8 kg front load Fisher 7paykel can I was with warm water if I want to ? lolita · 2024-03-12
    Hello there, you can certainly wash in warm water =) This machine (and the 7kg) allows you to set your desired approximate water temperature. Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Is there an option of adding a garment after the cycle has started? Em4845 · 2024-03-05
    Hi Em, this one doesn't. The closest F&P model that does is the Fisher & Paykel 8.5kg Front Load Washing Machine with Steam Refresh WH8560P3 =) Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
