The Fisher & Paykel DW60CHW1 is a discontinued freestanding dishwasher listed with 14 place settings. Its published specifications include 271 kWh of energy per year and 11.4 L of water per wash, but those are manufacturer specifications—not independent test results. The accessible review page does not show its performance scores, so buyers cannot use that page to judge how well it washes or dries.
What the DW60CHW1 offers
CHOICE lists the DW60CHW1 as a white, freestanding dishwasher with capacity for 14 place settings. Its listed dimensions are 85 × 60 × 62 cm. Confirm the installation space and connection requirements against the appliance’s rating plate and manual before buying or replacing one; product dimensions alone do not account for every clearance or hose requirement.

CHOICE lists a price of $969 on its model page, but that is historical/contextual page information, not a verified current offer. The model is marked discontinued, so do not treat that figure as a price you can expect to pay now. CHOICE: Fisher & Paykel DW60CHW1 review

The accessible CHOICE page does not disclose the DW60CHW1’s Expert Rating, wash score, drying score, energy-efficiency score, measured energy or water use, noise test, program duration, test year, reliability, or owner satisfaction results. Those fields are limited to members, so the model’s independent performance cannot be assessed from the available page. The published consumption and noise figures above should not be mistaken for CHOICE test measurements.

- Replace OEM Number: 524922P, 518712, PF-P-524922P, FP524922P, FP-524922P
- Not Interchangeable Parts: 524922P, 524185P and 524285P may look similar, but they are not universal. Similar impeller rotor appearance does not mean same fit, so please confirm your exact model and part number
- Durable Materials and Powerful Performance: The dishwasher pump motor and washing machine motor are made of upgraded, durable ABS plastic, offering excellent corrosion resistance, longer service life, and easy installation, saving both time and effort
- Quiet and efficient: The 524922P motor rotor assembly[other names: drain pump/impeller] is engineered to enhance the dishwasher's performance by reducing noise, ensuring smoother operation, improving cleaning efficiency, and delivering powerful cleaning results
This distinction matters when comparing an older appliance with a current one: a specification is not a substitute for a tested wash or drying result, and the accessible evidence does not support calling this model either a strong or weak performer.
Is the Fisher & Paykel DW60CHW1 discontinued?
Yes. CHOICE labels the DW60CHW1 discontinued. A remaining-stock or second-hand listing may still exist, but its presence does not establish that the appliance is new, supported, or a good value. Check the seller’s condition description, exact model identification, included accessories, return terms, and whether service or parts are available in your market before committing.

How to assess a used or remaining-stock DW60CHW1
Because there is no accessible independent performance score to rely on, assess the specific appliance and compare it with current options on practical criteria:
What’s actually slowing this PC down?
Pick the symptom - the matching free tool is one click away.
- Fit and connection: Confirm its 85 × 60 × 62 cm listed dimensions suit the space, and check the manual and site plumbing against its stated inlet requirements.
- Capacity and racks: Confirm the interior layout works for the cookware and cutlery you use; a 14-place-setting listing does not describe rack flexibility.
- Operating condition: If buying used, ask for a demonstration of a complete cycle and inspect for leaks, damaged racks, blocked spray components, door-seal problems, and error indications.
- Running performance: Compare independently tested washing and drying, measured energy and water use, noise, and cycle duration from comparable current models. The DW60CHW1 page does not provide accessible results for these measures.
- Ownership cost: Compare the actual asking price, delivery and installation costs, warranty or return protection, and the availability and cost of any needed parts.
How much water does the DW60CHW1 use?
Fisher & Paykel’s specification, reproduced in 2017 material, gives water consumption as 11.4 L per wash; CHOICE lists a 5-star water rating. These are published specifications, not an independently measured result for a particular program or current appliance. The accessible CHOICE page does not show measured water use or identify the test conditions.

Where can I find DW60CHW1 parts?
A model-specific parts manual documents components including the filter assembly, baskets, spray components, inlet hose, and door parts. It identifies filter assembly H0120801704A and says it includes coarse, micro stainless, and flat extractable filters. Documentation confirms that the assembly is identified for this model; it does not establish current stock, compatibility of a third-party listing, or whether the part number has been superseded.
Before ordering, compare the appliance’s full model identification with the listing and confirm the exact part number, market, supersessions, and availability with the manufacturer or seller. The parts manual is available at Parts Manual DW60CHW1 (80914-A).

What to compare with a current freestanding dishwasher
Since the DW60CHW1 is discontinued and its independent scores are not publicly visible on the accessible model page, compare a replacement on evidence and fit rather than assuming the older unit is equivalent to a current product. Check:
