"Horrible appliance; nonexistent service"
I bought this rather expensive dishwasher less than a year ago, and it's already broken down twice. It is impossible to reach a human customer service representative. If you are looking to buy a new dishwasher, Avoid Frigidaire at all costs!

"Great Price for Stainless Steel - Frigidaire Dishwasher"
We have owned this Frigidaire dishwasher for almost 2 years and I am very pleased with it. I wanted a stainless steel look, but our budget did not allow me to splurge on a dishwasher. This model has a nice clean look, and it gets my dishes nice and clean too! Not a lot of frills, there is a delayed start and a heavy wash setting for pots and pans. I would give this 5 stars for the price point. The only drawback is that it is a bit noisy. If you want a really quite dishwasher you are going to have to shell out more money than I was willing to. We have never had any problems with it and I just recommended the same dishwasher to my mother in law.

"My Thoughts About My Dishwasher"
I have had my Fridgidaire dishwasher since I purchased my house in August, 2009. The house was purchased brand new, so the dishwasher was new as well. I have never had to repair or replace anything with my dishwasher. I would recommend and repurchase a Fridgidaire dishwasher. I like my dishwasher because it gets everything clean. I have not had any issues with it leaving spots or not fully cleaning all of my dishes. Some dishwashers you cannot fully load them, but this one I have always been able to fully load it and still get all the dishes clean. The other thing I like is it has the option to delay the dishwashing by two or four hours. That is nice for when I want to do the dishes after I fall asleep so I do not have to listen to my dishwasher run. The only thing I do not like about my dishwasher is that it is not very quite. I have heard louder dishwashers; however it would be nice if mine was a little bit quieter.

"Our Home's Dishwasher"
We bought our family's dishwasher about five years ago. We have a relatively large family, so we frequently are running our dishwasher. It has always washed our dishes effectively. They come out sparkling and clean, free of any food, dirt, or grime. It is definitely much better than having to wash thirty dishes or more by hand! One problem we had with it is one time it overflowed with water, spilling out onto our kitchen floor. It was an annoying thing to deal with, however it was easy enough to fix. We realized that the problem was some liquid dish soap had been left on a pan, and it was not meant to go into the dishwasher, but nothing was really wrong with the dishwasher itself. I would buy the same brand again if it was affordable, and I probably would recommend it to a friend. It is a good, sturdy dishwasher and has lasted a long time. Compared to dishwashers that we have previously owned, it is much nicer.

"Firgidaire Dishwasher"
We bought our Frigidaire FFBD2409LS dishwasher along with other kitchen appliances about a year ago. For a moderately priced dishwasher it does a good job of cleaning even when only on the normal setting. We seldom have to use the higher settings, even with dirty pots and pans. This dishwasher does tend to be loud though and even from our family room we sometimes find the sound it makes to be distracting. We get around this by running it mostly at night. I installed the dishwasher myself and had a fairly easy time doing so with the included instructions. So far we've had no mechanical problems with our washer even though we use it at least once daily. It matches other stainless steel appliances in our kitchen well, both Frigidaire and other brands, and not being made of true stainless steel the surface doesn't pick up fingerprints easily and cleans up with little effort. I consider this Frigidaire model to be a good buy and would recommend it to anyone looking for a moderately priced dishwasher.

"Old Dishwasher on Last Leg"
We've had the same dishwasher since we moved into our house 10 years ago. While it was a top of the line dishwasher back then, it's no longer up to par. We have to wash everything before we put it in, and if it's not perfectly clean before we run the dishwashing cycle, it will come out dirty. Glass cups show the extent to which the dishwasher is no longer working: fingerprints are easily visible after taking the cup out of the dishwasher. Needless to say it's time for a new dishwasher, but the counter was built around the dishwasher, and we haven't been able to find a new dishwasher small enough to fit in the space, so for the time being we are stuck with a dishwasher that doesn't work. We still use the dishwasher to help sterilize the dishes, but we have to hand wash all the plates, cups and silverware beforehand.

"Frigidaire Model# FDB2510LCC1 Excellent Dishwasher You Decide"
I purchased my Frigidaire Model# FDB2510LCC1 Dishwasher about 6 years ago when I decided to remodel my kitchen. Not really knowing much about them or for that fact really care all that much being I figured all dishwashers were the same. I purchased the Frigidaire more for it's looks. I must say this dishwasher is beautiful, it really complimented the looks of my kitchen. It has a very sleek design with a wonderful matte washable stainless steel finish. My other experiences with stainless steel was not very good. It was always so difficult to clean but not on the Frigidaire it cleaned like a champ. This dishwasher has been a very reliable staple in my home as I have a family of six and I run this machine 2 times each and every day. I have yet to have any mechanical problems with it at all. My dishes always seem to come out perfectly cleaned and sparkling. There of course is the occasional fork or spoon that wil not get 100% clean but for the most part it works perfect. The only issue that I have had with this washer is the fact that when you have a heavy load of dishes in it and you open the door to to get them out sometimes I have a difficult time sliding the bottom tray all the way out. This is by no means a cheap dishwasher I paid nearly $500.00 for it and I was a little surprised to find that the wheels on the bottom rack were made from cheap plastic and they are not connected to the rack with a screw but rather a snap on method, so from time to time the wheel will pop off and I have to pop it back on. Other than this I am 100% satisfied with this product.

"Affordable and Reliable"
Last year my old dishwasher finally broke down, and I began to hunt for a new one. I was looking for something affordable, but something I could rely on to last and consistently do a good job. I found the Frigidaire 24" tall tub dishwasher on sale and was a little nervous it wouldn't be a quality appliance because of it's price. It is wonderful! I've had it a little over a month now and I couldn't be more happier. It has plenty of space for my family and it washes the dishes really well. The only think I really don't care for in the dishwasher is the fact that the tub is plastic. I would have prefered stainless steel, but it just wasn't in my budget. I will be sure to stick with Frigidaire appliances in the future. I would recommend it to anyone who was looking to get a quality dishwasher for a low price.

"Dishwasher review"
My Fridgidare dishwasher is new at 4 months old. It is a nice large capacity and runs smoothly. I like the varying speeds and temperatures and the multi level racks for dishes vs. glassware. I also like that is is green/energy effeciant. I love that is has a delay button and allows for extra scrubbing for pots and pans. The only fault that I find it It is supposed to be a quiet model and I can hear it from almost everywhere in the house. It always works with a hum. My friend bought the same washer and she says hers has a hum also. I would reccomend it, because it was a great price and has cleaned very well.

"My Frigidaire Dishwasher"
I absolutely love my Frigidaire dishwasher. I've owned this dishwasher for about three years now. The think I love most about my dishwasher is that it can fit an incredible amount of dishes and uses a very small amount of dish soap. There really is not anything I dislike about the dishwasher, I guess if I had to say one thing, I would say I dislike how long it takes to wash the dishes. The length isn't really a problem for me though, considering I have a plentiful amount of dishes. I have never needed to repair this dishwasher. I use this dishwasher pretty much everyday, sometimes even two times a day, and it still works just as find as the day I bought it. If anything ever happened to this dishwasher, I would definitely buy it again, no questions asked. It has always been reliable and washed my dishes better than any other dishwasher I have ever owned. I've known many friends who have been looking for dishwashers, and have recommended Frigidaire to every single one of them. I now have three other friends with a Frigidaire dish washer and none of them have had any problems. I bought the dish washer at a cheap price, as have all of my friends, but the dishwasher is certainly not a cheap quality.

"Cheaper isn't better, especially when it comes to dishwashers."
We have owned our Frigidaire dishwasher for approximately 18 months. To my family, a dishwasher is one of the most important appliances that we own. No one likes doing dishes, and no one wants to go through any extra steps to get clean dishes. Now with that said, the truth of the matter is that we have never spent over $300 for a dishwasher and have always been happy with our cheap purchase. Until now. We have owned this dishwasher now for approximately 18 months. After initially installing our new Frigidaire, it was fabulous. Quiet operation, super simple to run, and shiny clean dishes after the cycle finished up. Yes, we thought we had made another fantastic cheap appliance purchase! Unfortunately, each month has made our dishwasher noisier. And somehow our dishes aren't so clean. Now when the dishwasher is ran, it makes an extraordinarily loud grinding, vibrating noise. This didn't start happening until the dishwasher was just out of warranty, of course. The repair of the dishwasher would probably cost the same as the original purchase! Would I recommend this exact dishwasher to someone else? No way. But I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Frigidaire- just a better, (slightly) more expensive model.

"A good, basic dishwasher"
I have owned my dishwasher for more than 4 years and there has not been one issue to date. I like that there are many options for washing including a quick wash, an ultimate scrub and every imagineable setting that falls in between. The only downside is the fact that the steam coming out of the washer seems more apparent than in other dishwashers I have had experience using in the past. I have never needed a repair which is another huge plus for me as a budget conscious homeowner. I recommend this washer to friends all the time and will continue to do so. The dishwasher is black and is actually quite stylish for an everyday kitchen appliance. I will buy another dishwasher like this if I ever need to. But as it stands now, this dishwasher could last another 10 years. I am very satisfied and wish all my appliances were as reliable and user friendly like the frigidaire I purchased over four years ago.

"Dishwasher in my apartment"
The dishwasher in my apartment usually works great. I have owned this dishwasher as long as I've lived in this apartment, which is about 2 years. I nearly always use the "eco clean" mode which uses less water than the other modes and my dishes are nearly always shiny clean. I almost never rinse the dishes beforehand and they usually come out clean regardless. I like that it has a 'sanitize' mode that makes me feel confident about the cleanliness of my dishes. Occasionally grime can become stuck on the dishes, which I dislike, usually as a result of a sticky meal (cheese, syrup, etc.). I have used many brands of dish soap in the dishwasher and it works well even with cheaper (dollar store) dish soap. I have never had to repair the dishwasher. The only work that was done on it was installing it, and that was straightforward. I would recommend this model to a friend because it is reliable.

"Frigidaire makes a good dishwasher"
I have owned my dishwasher for the last twelve years and have been very satisfied with it. I like the fact that it has never broken down and cost me money. I also like how quiet it is when it is running. Over the years I have only had a few minor problems with it but they were things that I could fix easily. A few times a piece of food had gotten stuck in the upper rotating arm and the top shelf did not get clean. Luckily this part is easy to take off and clean. The other problem that I have had with it is the wheels of the top rack can pop out of their tracks and you have to force them back in. When it comes time to replace the one that I have I will most likely stick with the same brand. I would have no problem recommending a Frigidaire dishwasher to any of my friends.

"An Extremely Ordinary Dishwasher"
Overall I am not fully satisfied with my choice to buy a Frigidaire dishwasher. I have owned my dishwasher for five months and I can't say that there is much I like about it, except that I got it for a very affordable price. I have many dislikes about this product -first being that it can be a bit noisy during the day. I can barely hear my TV over it! It also does not clean very well; every time I use it I put it on "pots and pans" mode to make sure that it cleans the dishes thoroughly and I also add extra detergent. I have never had to have it repaired, but I haven't had the product long enough to really need one. I would not buy this same product again and I would not recommend it to a friend. Next time I buy a dishwasher I will go for one that is better quality not just quantity of price.

"Excellent Choice for Home Dishwashers"
The Fridgidaire brand is known for quality in the world of appliances. I have owned several of their products in the past. This dishwasher model is the best I have owned. I love the easy to read and operate panel located atop the door. It has various cycles to suit your needs. The Ultimate Scrub cycle can be used for those tough pots and pans. It even has a sanitize cycle which is perfect for those with babies and even those who like to have their dishes ultimately cleaned. It also has an EcoWash cycle for those of use who are conscience of protecting the earth and conserving resources. You can choose to air dry or not. Which is also a deluxe feature. My favorite feature is the delay start. This can be used in many ways. Two of my favorite are, when I load now I can wash later so as not to interrupt something I am doing, like reading or watching a movie. The delayed start also prevents forgetting. I have had this dishwasher for less than a year, but I enjoy it and will continue to buy similar or same models.

"One Last Wash On The Frigidaire Pony"
I would like to tell you about my Frigidaire dishwasher that I bought and returned within 30 days of having it. I bought the machine because I normally replace my dishwasher every few years. It's mainly because newer models normally save power. I liked the certification that it will kill germs and bacteria. I think it is certified through the NSF I believe. The other thing I liked about the dishwasher is the fact that you can put it on a timer. I don't like hearing my dishwasher run when I am home. Well to the bad parts. I don't do a lot of dishes because I try and make people reuse cups and such. Saying that the thing died within 30 days. Yes, something happened with the motor that rotates the head. After having so many issues with the Frigidaire fridge I bought a couple months before this. I decided just to save myself the trouble and took it back for another brand. I really don't know what happened to Frigidaire but I think it's because they make everything in china these days. I would not tell anyone to buy this or any other Frigidaire products because they have gone cheap and are not make like they used to.

"My Fantastic Cheap Cheap Dishwasher"
My old dishwasher died about a year after we bought our house. I was pretty broke but really hate doing dishes. I got a good deal on this one, about $200, brand new in the box. I had a friend install it and he told me a few tricks to keep it running great. My hot water faucet in the kitchen takes a while to get hot. Gotta run it first so the dishwasher will fill with hot water, they don't heat up the cold very well. New dishwashers use the rinse cycle as part of the cleaning process. Always use a rinse agent. Keep the dishwasher clean. Run it empty 2 or 3 times a year with a couple of cups of distilled vinegar. I've been doing this for five years and every dish in every load has been spotless. Out of my cheap, cheap dishwasher. Although, next time I might spend a bit more. Quiet is not on it's list of achievements.

"Functional, Cheap"
I recently built a new home, and I supplied it with all new appliances. One of the appliances was a brand new Frigidaire black dishwasher. Due to expenses, I will admit that I purchased the dishwasher solely on the basis of its cheap price. It was the cheapest one in the store. I have owned and used this dishwasher for a month and a half. The sales person did not recommend the dishwasher, but often a person cannot tell if they legitimately feel it is not a good appliance or they just want to make more money. Because of the hesitation of the sales person, I was not optimistic about the dishwasher. However, the dishwasher looks good. It runs much quieter than I expected, and I am very pleased with this fact. On initial use, it did not clean as thoroughly as I would have liked; however, by using a rinse aid in addition to dishwasher detergent, it cleans much better. Also, it necessary to rinse the dishes well before putting them in the dishwasher. I do wish it had more cleaning power, but nothing I would complain about and I can definitely live with it. So far, I have had nothing to repair. The next dishwasher I purchase will probably be on the higher end. I would recommend it to a friend, if they wanted a cheap, functionally dishwasher.

"My Dishwasher Review"
I am going to make a review of my Frigidaire Gallery Professional Series Dishwasher. The dishwasher is of a high quality and I very satisfied with it. It gets the job done and that is the most important aspect of a dishwasher. I have owned this dishwasher for six years and it has never let me down so far. There are many things that I like about the dishwasher. Firstly, there is plenty of room on the inside of the dishwasher unit to load a lot of dishes. There are two separate racks so that more dishes can be washed. Two utensil holders are located on the upper and lower racks, which is convenient. Another feature that I really like is the area that displays how much time is remaining in the wash. It is useful because I can see exactly how much time I have to wait before the wash is done. There isn't anything I dislike about the dishwasher. I find that it is of very high quality. I have never had to repair the dishwasher as it has held up throughout the years. I would definitely buy this brand again and I recommend it to everyone.
