Frigidaire - Gallery 24" Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher - Stainless

I'm glad I waited to post a review as I recently had problems with this unit. We bought this in September 2012 and had little problems with installation. It did not have as much space as our last one that was about 12 years old but it's looks great, is fairly quiet, easy to use, and performs well. My only complaint is that with the unit partially under the counter top, it's difficult to fit my fingers in to reach the touch pad. So if you want a flush mount, keep that in mind. After 9 months of problem free use, the unit began giving an error message after starting a cycle. It would not complete a full cycle. Then it gave a different error message and would not cycle on at all. A noise could be heard as if it were running but it wasn't doing anything. I attempted to reset the unit by turning the breaker off and resetting the panel but it didn't help. I called for service two weeks ago and the tech just left my house. Apparently, there have been many recent problems with the control panel and touch pad going bad on this model. I even found some evidence of this via a Google search. He said that he's replaced 4 of these panels since January. In anticipation of my unit needing these parts, he ordered them shortly after my call to them nearly 2 weeks ago. The parts were not in yet leading him to believe that the delay was b/c Frigidaire is aware of the problem and has made changes that have caused additional delays. He indicated that some of the original replacements also went bad so they went back to "square one" to fix the issue by making a new part. I'm not going to bash Frigidaire (yet) or give this unit a bad rating as it works well. If what the tech told me is true, Frigidaire is on top of the problem and routinely handles problems quickly. Once we get the new parts installed, he said we should have no other problems. Time will tell!

I love the look of the brushed stainless steel and it doesn't show fingerprints so I rarely have to clean it. The dishwasher is quiet and has lots of room for dishes. The buttons being on top are nice so you don't accidently start it by leaning against it. However, when I start the dishwasher, it says 99 minutes and counts down, which seems like a very long time to wash. I have experimented with a few different settings and all seem to be 99 minutes.

After reviewing many dishwashers we chose this one. It is attractive stainless steel and easy to clean with vinegar water and a cloth. It is absolutely the quietest dishwasher I have ever owned. It cleans well with no residue or spots; it also has many cleaning features to personalize each wash cycle. I love the timer setting. Ideally, I wish it had a compartment for knives or cooking tools, other than the silverware compartment. There are many loading features for larger dishes....even a special rack for wine glasses!!!!!!!

Have had the unit for about a month now. Replaced a very old Maytag D/W that no longer cleaned very well. This unit cleans very well, even without the pre-rinsing we had to do with the old unit. We were always reluctant to put pots and pans in the old unit because they generally didn't come out clean. We did a run with this one, and they came out better than before. Unit is also very quiet, which is nice because our kitchen is connected to the family room. Barely notice that it's running compared to the old one. Dries very well also. We use the rinse aid that came with the unit, plus the Finish tabs with rinse aid built in, and have had no issues with drying. Only thing we notice is that the racks could be a little sturdier feeling. Very light, and as such, feel somewhat flimsy. I don't think that it will be a problem, but just an observation. Overall this was an excellent purchase, and delivery was professional and on-time by Best Buy.

This dishwasher cleans good. It takes 90 minutes for the regular cycle but it has different modes. It's a little loud but it's not bad. Does not come with power cord.

The dishwasher cleans well and is not too loud, but this is just an average dishwasher. The racks are kinda cheap and the controls are confusing at times. The controls are not that obvious and so I had to completely read all the manuals to find out how to run a normal cycle. The small display on the front makes no sense until you read the manual.

Worked great for 6 years, little bit of rust in the racks but lasted pretty much as expected. Then we started to chase a problem that turned into another then another. 1. Stopped Draining. Fixed. 2. VO error. Fixed 3. Leaks from door and under unit. Repair is more than to replace with new. Now we are back looking for a new one.

This dishwasher lacks a couple of the "new hot features", but I am still satisfied with it due to its great appearance, smudge free finish and overall performance. I chose to spend those extra appliance dollars elsewhere in my kitchen.
