Every wash in our Fisher & Paykel Series 9 Washers is tailored to the unique molecular structure of each fibre type. Care for Silk blouses, Linen trousers and even handwash-only Wool with the certified Woolmark Green cycle, guided by the vivid 7” touchscreen for effortless control at your fingertips. Intelligent technology accounts for the moisture absorption and fibre construction of each garment, adjusting temperature, speed, drum movement and detergent to deliver a perfectly balanced clean while extending the life of your garments.
Stains behave differently depending on the fibre they’re on — Butter should be washed in a solid state to prevent it from sinking into the pores of the fibre, while Tea, Coffee, and Red Wine cling more strongly to Cotton than Polyester. Our 5 Stain Treatments for 3 fibre types provide pre- or in-wash care tailored to both fibre and stain, lifting marks effectively while protecting the life and quality of your garments.
Our most perfect pair yet, reimagined for modern living. With a single 7" touchscreen, angled and streamlined for effortless cycle control, plus a newly positioned lint filter on the dryer, it offers a seamless fabric care experience, elevated beyond the utility space. Designed to complement one another in both form and function, our Front Loader Washers and Heat Pump Dryers feature refined materials, large doors and complementary cycles that work in harmony to care for a wide range of fibres.
Everyday routines are simpler when the details are taken care of for you with Auto Dose. ActiveIntelligence™ senses load size and soil level, Auto Dose delivers the right amount of detergent, and Active Mix blends it with water for a gentle, effective wash. Two FlexiDose reservoirs let you use detergent and softener, storing enough for up to 21 washes when both are used for detergent, or specialised formulas — ideal for Silk, with it’s delicate protein fibres that weaken when wet and need extra care to maintain softness and sheen.
Crease Free gives you flexibility to unload laundry when it suits you. Ideal for Down, which can clump and compress when wet, Crease Free gently tumbles the load while damp to separate and loosen fibres, preserving the natural loft and softness of garments and bedding. Drum Dry completes the care cycle by quietly circulating air to fully dry the drum. Simply close the door and the machine will be dry and ready for the next load when you are.
Gently relax fibres to reduce wrinkles and odours with Steam Refresh. By applying just the right amount of steam without fully saturating garments, it preserves Linen’s natural breathability and flexibility, which can be affected by repeated wetting and drying at high temperatures. Steam Refresh revives softness and drape, keeping garments airy and refreshed between washes.
Designed to reduce running costs and environmental impact with 5-star energy and 5-star water ratings, you can trust that your fabric care routine is both effective and sustainable. The SmartDrive™ motor ensures quiet operation and long-lasting reliability, with fewer moving parts for reduced wear over time.
