Frigidaire FDB1050RE

Pros: Cheap, quiet, and gets all the dishes really CLEAN, every time

Cons: Doesn't empty itself?

The Bottom Line: You can definitely pay more, but I doubt that you can buy a better dishwasher at any price. If you want predictably clean dishes, this is your dishwasher.

Review: Before I start this review, I should note that I believe Frigidaire is owned by (Electrolux?) now. Also, this review covers several different model numbers. These are all the exact same dishwasher, with different exterior colors: FDB1050RE (the ...

Pros: Quiet, efficient, effective, looks nice, great price

Cons: Escaping steam can make it too hot to stand right in front of the unit

The Bottom Line: If you're in the market for a dishwasher, this one is a good bet! It offers the most features for the money, and the reviews I found were overwhelmingly positive.

Review: The old Kitchen Aid Superbra was still running, but it was loud, and we had to rinse the dishes if we expected them to come out reasonably clean. I'm sure it sucked up a lot of water and electricity, too. So in March, 2007, when we decided to remodel ...

Pros: Gets dishes very clean, is quiet and easy to use.

Cons: Glass trap is hard to remove, door is hard to open with long fingernails.

The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this dishwasher. It is one of the cheapest dishwashers on the market, but still looks nice and gets dishes sparkling clean!

Review: My husband and I live in an older home that never had a built-in dishwasher. For years I stood at the sink and hand-washed dishes, even through two pregnancies which absolutely was murder on my back since I was basically standing a foot away from the ...

Pros: Low cost, quiet, excellent wash performance, excellent top rack.

Cons: Cutlery carrier in lower rack instead of door.

The Bottom Line: Low cost, comprehensive install instructions, great washing performance, very quiet, deep top rack for wine glasses, does what it has to do VERY well,

Review: After a good deal of research I opted for the 1050 model as it had everything I needed and nothing I didn't. I mean a glass cycle maybe nice, but who really uses it daily? My old Whirlpool died and a replacement was almost double the cost of the ...

Pros: does a great job cleaning the dishes, no more washing before washing

Cons: flimsy door, poor installation instructions.

Review: We bought this dishwasher, after doing some research, to replace a dishwasher, that tried to catch the house on fire. The previous model had to almost have the dishes washed before washing them. This dishwasher, on the other hand does a great job. We ...

Pros: Heated drying, heated wash, multiple washing arms. Inexpensive and quiet.

Cons: none at this time. It has everything I need.

Review: Our old Kenmore gave up and the hunt for a replacement was on... with initial budget of $300-$370. After spending few days reading reviews on different models in my price range I have stumbled upon a favorable review given to this unit. I was intrigued ...

Pros: Solid, dependable, inexpensive, uses little water.

Cons: Although fairly quiet, it could be quieter

The Bottom Line: I would recommend dishwasher based on its solid performance and low price to purchase and run over the last three and a half years.

Review: We purchased this dishwasher in October 2004 and it has not given us any problem since purchase. We use this unit at least once per day. It uses very little water, yet the dishes always come clean - completely. The rotary dial is very easy to ...

Pros: Cleans well, nice looking

Cons: cutlery basket design

The Bottom Line: Good all round dishwasher, not too complicated but perfectly adequate

Review: This is my second Frigidaire dishwasher, the first one died after years of faithful service so I purchased one as close to my original as possible. The wire racks are well designed with room for lots of plates, dishes and other items. I find I can ...

Pros: Price, Value, Cleaning ability, Quietness

Cons: The opening handle is not deep enough. Selector knob not flush

Review: Since the reviews at this site helped me make a decision on purchasing this unit, I thought I would also critique the product and maybe help someone else. I recently purchased this item from Sears ( labeled Kenmore ) and was pleasantly surprised. I ...

Pros: My large dishes fit in it. It's pretty quiet.

Cons: Bottom rack falls into d/w when emptying. Detergent tabs don't always dissolve.

The Bottom Line: I would not buy this again. It is not consistent and is poorly designed. The dishes don't always get clean and never get dry.

Review: I just moved into a brand new house, and was excited to have a new dishwasher. I have a Frigidaire refrigerator that I've been really happy with, and I thought their d/w would be great, too. I've been using it for 2 months. First, I was thrilled that my ...
