Fisher & Paykel Single Drawer Specifications
For many people, the word "dishwasher" conjures up visions of a kitchen appliance with a vertical door that lowers down to open. While this design represents the majority of dishwashers on the market, it's not the only option for cleaning power in the kitchen. Drawer dishwashers feature handles that allow you to pull them open, much like a cabinet or desk drawer. They give users the flexibility of running small loads and of placing a dishwasher in a home bar or cramped kitchen. Fisher & Paykel introduced these units to the U.S. market, and the company offers more than a dozen models of single-drawer dishwashers. Does this Spark an idea?
