are there any horror stories about these??

New Zealand consumer magazine (www.consumer.org.nz), a subscription
service, reports on such things, much in the same vein as Which? in
the UK.  Taking a couple of snippets from their brand reliability
report concerning the F&P DishDrawer:

"We discovered that over the last five years, DishDrawers had the
worst record of any dishwasher, of any brand. Over a third of owners
reported that their DishDrawer, single- or two-drawer, had needed
repair"

However:

"Despite this, 88 percent of DishDrawer owners told us they would
buy the same model again. In other words, many people like the two-
drawer approach so much, they are prepared to keep their fingers
crossed about breakdowns."
