Yep. I researched f&p when looking for induction hobs last year. Love the company and most of their products I just don't see the benefit of drawers for a dishwasher.
Ive had occasion in the past to wash large items by removing the upper basket. Cant do that with the double drawer system.

When they're installed low down there are fewer. But with a normal dishwasher you have to fold a door down to the ground and pull out an internal drawer. Then for the heaviest items you have to bend down to put them in the bottom. If you want to put on a half load you have put the whole thing on.
If you think about it, that's a very clunky design that would have originally come about due to the limitations of the time when dishwashers were first popularised. It's only continued out of convention.
Pulling a drawer at waist height and putting something in without bending is much easier. Just try it on a normal drawer, then put something in your dishwasher.

The big benefit is being able to run half of the dishwasher rather than the full thing. Each drawer is independent. Lots of these will be installed in flats where you probably won't have families filling the dishwasher every day.

Fisher and Paykel is a kiwi company stuff is all designed and manufactured in NZ plus they pay their staff well.
In Aus and NZ their stuff is not too expensive (but still a premium brand) so I imagine that when the government signs a trade deal with NZ that is shit for us and great for them because Brexit the price will come down.
They do last, I have one of their fridges and its great. The customer service is awesome when I need spare water filters etc but it is a little odd phoning a UK # and being put through to a nightshift worker that sounds like an extra from once we're warriors.
