The Fisher & Paykel GW712 7.5kg Top Load Washing Machine is a practical and reliable washing machine featuring Fisher & Paykel’s Smart Drive technology. With a 7.5kg washing capacity, it provides plenty of space for everyday family laundry and is a great option for households looking for a straightforward and easy-to-use top-load washer.
The Smart Drive system uses intelligent electronic controls to adjust the wash action and water level according to the load. Its direct-drive motor is designed to provide reliable operation while allowing the machine to use different wash actions for different types of laundry.
The GW712 offers a range of wash cycles and options, including Regular, Heavy Duty, Delicate and Wool. Different water levels and wash options provide flexibility depending on the size and type of laundry being washed. The machine also features load sensing and an out-of-balance recovery system to help manage uneven loads during the spin cycle.
A useful feature of the Smart Drive system is its ability to detect an unbalanced load. The machine can automatically redistribute the load and attempt the spin cycle again, helping provide more stable operation.
The GW712 has a traditional top-load design with a large opening for convenient loading and unloading. Its 7.5kg capacity makes it suitable for regular family laundry, clothing, towels and household washing.
This refurbished Fisher & Paykel washing machine is professionally checked, cleaned and tested before sale at WA White Goods in Welshpool, Perth.

Frequently Ask Questions
Ready to paste. Each answer leads with the direct answer so it can be picked up by Google and AI search.
Q1. What is Fisher & Paykel Smart Drive?
Smart Drive is Fisher & Paykel’s direct-drive system. Electronic controls sense the load and adjust the wash action and water level to suit it. The GW712 offers Regular, Heavy Duty, Delicate and Wool cycles with several water levels.
Q2. What happens if the load goes out of balance?
The GW712 detects an unbalanced load, redistributes the washing automatically and tries the spin again. This helps prevent heavy thumping and stops the cycle stalling on uneven loads like towels or jeans.
Q3. Is 7.5kg enough for a family of four?
Yes, 7.5kg handles everyday loads for most families of three or four. If you often wash doonas or large loads of towels, consider a 9–10kg machine.
Q4. Will the GW712 fit in my laundry?
It’s 650mm wide, 650mm deep and 1020–1050mm high, depending on how the feet are adjusted. With the lid open it needs 1410–1440mm of clearance.
Q5. How much is delivery, and can you take my old washer away?
The delivery fee is based on distance from Welshpool and shown at checkout. We deliver across the Perth metro area, usually within 1–3 business days. We can remove your old washing machine on request, and a small fee may apply.
