I was truely impressed by the looks and technique of this dishwasher. My husband and I are the only ones that I have to cook for so the top drawer was plenty for us to use. One day I opened the bottom drawer and just about fell over from the horrid smell that came out. Water collects and does not drain when you run the top one since they are 2 separate units. I notified customer service of Fisher and Paykel of which their only response to this problem was it was not a defect in the system and that it was supposed to do this. So if you buy one of these be sure to run both drawers and do not let the water set.
