Frigidaire FDB750RC Slim-Line 24 in. Built-in Dishwasher

Pros: looks good, low price, tall tub, quiet enough, fairly easy to load.
Cons: Does not clean well, cheap wheels and rollers, cheap racks.

this dishwasher came with my new house. I considered upgrading from the start, but figured I'd give it a try and be happy. Well, one year later I'm shopping for a new machine. It looks okay, loads good enough though nothing fancy, and though not exceptionally quiet, it is quiet enough for me. However, it is very inconsistent on getting dishes clean. You basically have to pre wash them, and I put them in with NO food on them whatsoever. Often them come out with soap powder residue on them. I think the way Frigidaire got the machine quiet was to lower the wash pressure, creating low performance in actual cleaning.

It's for sale...

Pros: none, not very quiet
Cons: broken when delivered

purchased dishwasher last week, installed it on the weekend to a very new, almost completed renovated kitchen. twice the dishwasher has overflowed all over the floor. we assumed we made a mistake in the plumbing the first time, but last night it did it again and has now ruined my new cabinets with overnight water damage. seems that the cellinoid wont stop running and therefore the water free flows when you are not around, eventually overflowing out the door, to the floor etc. needless to say it will be going back and i wont be accepting a replacement, only my money back and the repairs fully covered in the kitchen.

Pros: Lightweight, easy to throw in the trash.
Cons: Cheaply made and doesn't wash dishes.

I regret buying this dishwasher. I should have had our old KitchenAid fixed instead. At least the KitchenAid cleaned the dishes. After 3 days of use, this plastic washtub can't do the job. It was also a pain to install. The cheap insulated cover kept getting caught in the flimsy door springs. This is one big disappointment. After two days, we are still waiting for an appointment for a repair man to see it. If you are shopping for a new dishwasher, save your money and buy a KitchenAid. It will be a lot less stressfull!
UPDATE: The repairman came and blamed the malfunction on wrong installation even though it was the same installation used on our previous dishwasher. So we hired a plumber to check it out. Nothing was wrong with the installation. Repairman came back and found a defective timer. So we had the machine for 2 weeks and it only worked for 3 days. The retailer took the dishwasher back and gave us a full refund. I now have a KitchenAid and what a difference in Quality! Plus, it really washes dishes! Never again will I choose a cheap appliance.

Pros: Works well and looks very nice.
Cons: Does not have adjustable tines/racks.

This dishwasher gives good value for the money. There is only two people in the house so it takes 2-3 days for it to fill up, so I always pre-rinse the really mucky dishes. If I am going to turn it on right after dinner, then all the dishes go in as is and everything comes out sparkling. It is pretty quiet and does what it is supposed to do. Overall I am quite pleased with it.

Pros: Inexpensive, quiet, efficient.
Cons: Life span... 2 out of 2 dishwashers broke!

I have purchased two of these dishwashers. One for my rental home a little over a year ago and one for my personal home about 6 months ago.

At first they both worked great and I was very pleased with the options and the price, but about two months ago, the worst possible scenario occurred.

First the dishwasher in my rental home broke, conveniently after the 1 year warranty period. Then about a month later the dishwasher in my own home broke. Luckily the one in my home is still under warranty.

Both dishwashers failed due to a faulty pump. Either I am incredibly unlucky, or more likely there is a manufacturing defect with these pumps. Frigidaire is fixing the dishwasher under warranty with a brand new (and most likely faulty) pump, but will offer no assistance with the other dishwasher that is more than a year old.

Needless to say, this is the last Fridigaire product I will ever purchase.

Pros: Quiet, large capacity, cleans well, low-priced.
Cons: I haven't come across any yet.

I'm a single guy who only needs to run the dishwasher every 5 days or so. Because of that, I pre-rinse. Therefore, I didn't need to purchase an elaborate machine, or spend much more than $200. I just wanted something that would get the job done well, quietly.

This Frigidaire does exactly that. It is very quiet, and so far, everything has come out clean and spotless.

You can get a lot into this machine too, because the cutlery basket fits along the side of the bottom rack, and there's no center tower to work around. There's a spray arm under the top rack instead, which you don't find in other machines at this price.

Another feature important to me is the design of the detergent dispenser. I have seen other machines that leak out the detergent before the main wash. Frigidaire has one of the best dispensers that seals very well and keeps the detergent dry and fresh until it is supposed to be released.

Efficiency is another benefit. This unit is Energy Star compliant, and uses only 6 gallons of water in a normal cycle. That's half of what my old machine used.

Pros: relatively quiet and fast
Cons: just about everything else.. it just doesn't wash!!

This was my absolute worst washer. I've previously owned Maytag, Magic Chef, and now Whirlpool (after getting rid of this machine) and this piece of junk performs less than half of the rest (Maytag and Magic Chef were at least 5-10 years old). Yes, it is the cheapest stainless steel you can find...but you will know the reason why. I had to pre-wash dishes with my hands, load them to the machine, and post-wash the dishes to off detergent residues -- for total of 3 cycles (2 manual, 1 machine). I was so unhappy from the start I ended up paying a lot more money to get a sure thing - Whirlpool Gold. I had never written a review this bad but please listen and don't waste your time or money. BTW, I found out that it ranked absolutely worst in Consumer Review as well.
