It takes a lot of brainpower to make things really simple. That, in a sentence, is the essence of SmartDrive™. Traditional washing machines are made up of many moving parts. Their complexity also means there's a lot that can go wrong with them. Fisher & Paykel SmartDrive™ machines are made of just three main parts: a small computer, a flexible agitator, and a simple direct-drive motor. This means washing machines that can sense each load, use less water and run with less moving parts.
SmartTouch™ Controls
The SmartTouch™ control panel is your interface with the SmartDrive™ technology. It allows you to see at a glance exactly which of the 12 pre-programmed cycles you have selected from. As you turn it the icons illuminate to show you exactly what you have selected. The SmartDrive™ technology senses each load to deliver better clothes care.
22 lb Capacity
The large 22 lb capacity means you save time and money, requiring fewer loads to wash your weeks laundry. Infinite water level sensing makes this washer very efficient with both small and large loads. The big basket will easily wash bulky items like comforters and blankets.
Eco-Active™ Wash
Eco-Active™ boosts soil removal while saving energy. Its unique pumping technology re-circulates water and detergent through the clothes in a cascade like pattern. This rapidly removes stains and dirt and is proven to be more effective at killing bacteria. The Eco-Active™ wash saves energy, achieving Tier 3 on CEE, and Energy Star, but best of all it achieves a better clean.
Hands-Free lid
The soft close lid makes opening and closing gentle and easy allowing ergonomic and hands free operation. The glass lid is made of extremely strong toughened glass, set in an ABS molded base. It won’t mark and is our most chemical resistant lid.
