    Smart cleaning

    75 years of laundry experience has led to the development of one of the world's most advanced wash systems the Smart Drive. Unlike conventional machines Smart Drive clothes washers intelligently adapt their wash actions and water levels to save on water and electricity usage making it kinder on your wallet and the environment.

    Auto-lint disposal

    There is no need to clean a lint filter after every wash. Lint is automatically disposed of by the washing machine making running your machine even easier.

    Gentle on all your fabrics

    With specialty wash programs and a flexible finned agitator this Fisher & Paykel washing machine will ensure less tangling and provide great clothes care with every wash.

    A machine you can trust

    The revolutionary Direct Drive motor is capable of infinite wash actions continuously adjusting its speed to the movement of your clothes and removing dirt while caring for the fabric. Additionally the Eco-Drive has no mechanical brake pulleys or gears which means fewer moving parts and greater reliability. It is also backed by a 10-year motor parts warranty.

    EASY TO USE
    Purchased my new F&P about 4 mths ago, (have always owned F&P machines) it's great and easy to use, however, when you "pause to add any extras" an additional 6 minutes or so is added to the cycle. The "quick" and shortest cycle is 39mins... Quite long for a quick cycle.
