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.

So far so good, had a hard time installing, very little clearance because of tall tub. Washes dishes well and the machine is rather quite. Hidden controls keep Grand Kids from playing with them. Has a sour smell in tub when not in use hopefully with time that will go away. Wife is Happy!!!!!

This is a wonderful dishwasher. We've had it in our house for two months now, and have had absolutely no problems with it. We decided to install on our own, and did so in under an hour. Very user friendly, love that the controls are hidden (we have 4 very active young kiddos in our house!!). Dishwasher is so quiet we weren't even sure it was running at first, but when it finished and we pulled out the dishes, we were very happy to see that it had done it's job so well. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a mid priced dishwasher, because it works like a high end one!!

The dishwasher is good. The performance is quiet and dishes clean. Lots of room and the drawers are configurable. The button placement in the top does not fit well with the counter overhang.

Dishwasher looks great, cleans well, and is easy to use. However I feel like the washing cycles take too much time thus using a lot of water.

I have always "washed" the dishes before placing them in the dishwasher, but my husband and I decided to run a load with dishes that had been sitting for a few days, with food dried and caked on. I was expecting to find chunks still here and there, but to my surprise they were spotless! You would have never known they were so filthy before.
The one thing it does have more difficulty with are the caked on silverware and bowls. Because the way the bowls are placed it can't as thoroughly wash them, and of course the silverware with the nooks and caves of forks and spoons. So just make sure those are not as dirty and you'll have your job simplified!
The noise is average, not silent, but not so loud I can't hear anything else.
I don't like the long cycles of 98+ minutes, but after looking it up, that is actually an average time for dishwashers.
I really like the My Favorite feature, and the different options that it offers. Definitely a favorite in my kitchen. Makes my work so much easier since standing on hard tile hurts my back.

The first time my wife turned it on, she thought it wasn't working, no noise. There is a lot more room in this one than the 15+ year old GE we had before. The price was great. It cleans much better than the old machine. A great value.

Got a great deal on this diswasher and it has not disappointed, all the features you want and a very affordable price. Tons of setting options, adjustable racks, quiet, and most importantly clean dishes. Also looks great in my kitchen. Highly recommended.

Definite Improvement from the old "Sanitizer"

I replaced a 12-year builder grade dishwasher for this one, so I am not sure it is far to compare. At the point of deciding replace the ol' sanitizer (because it really didn't clean, only sprayed a lot of hot water around) I would have taken just about anything.
This dishwasher is really wonderful, easy to use, and seems sturdy enough for me. I like the stainless-like finish because it doesn't show all the fingerprints and stuff like 100% stainless shows. Easy to keep clean and looks awesome. I replaced all my appliances out this year, so its a perfect addition.

I was not expecting a plastic interior. It does seem to do the job & is relatively quiet, although we kept the thicker insulation from our old dishwasher & doubled up on what came with the machine. Long 99 minute regular cycle.........

I love the no smudge. Its really quite. And the inside is grey insteadof white so better if you have hard water.
