Basic dishwasher gets the job done.
- February 26, 2025[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Replaced our 25 year-old dishwasher after it died. Insulation was easy,(two out of five wrenches). I was a little surprised how light it was and how Minimalistic it was with only two cycles to choose from. But that’s not a big deal for us. That’s all we use anyway. Sometimes simpler is better. Insulation instructions were helpful. But they didn’t seem thorough. Example the dishwasher door would not lay down flat, when opened and kept trying to close even with the dish rack on it. My wife had to hold the door down to put dishwashing soap in it. So I had to pull the washer back out to adjust the door springs. But there was nothing in the instructions on how to do that. Not a big deal for me, but somebody with less experience might have trouble with this.

Frigidaire 24" Dishwasher, Model:FDPC4221AS..."My little Giant"
- January 27, 2023[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this machine for a month now and I've been very satisfied. Before purchasing I looked at consumer reviews and most owners were very pleased. Pics depict the machine after a full weeks worth of dirty dishes. Everything clean and glasses, plates, silverware crystal clear. Has the compartment for separate rinse which I make good use of. It is extremely quiet. How quiet? I am talking start you hybrid or electric car quiet. Very nice. As an added bonus I saved myself $150.00 by installing it myself. I am no handyman but the directions are simple to follow and with a little help from You Tube was able to do it myself. If you in need of a quiet, reliable dishwasher and don't have a lot of money to spend then this is your product.

I expected more
- January 4, 2026[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just like the title says, I expected more out of this dishwasher. I was disappointed to see coffee stains and some small coffee grounds still in the cup after the cycle ran. Also some very small particles of food. Ive had dishwashers before and obviously, I rinse them off before putting them in to wash but I’ve never had to actually “pre wash” to make sure everything is off. Even the dishwasher detergent doesn’t get fully rinse off the dishes which is really annoying. I will say, we have REALLY hard water and I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. You can see the rings where my coffee was that didn’t come off…

Frigidaire Dishwasher
- February 17, 2026[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a modest cost the dishwasher is functional unit. Disappointment with dish rack on bottom as the playes lean forward and look out of alignment as you slide rack back. Narrower holders would be better. Utensil holder does not hold utensils separately so that they do not get washed well. Lastly, had to call service to adjust door as it springs back up and must hold it down to load dishes. Correction required removal to move spring.instructions should note this as part of install just as leveling is needed.

Ventilation is a huge issue
- March 5, 2023This is the worst dishwasher we have ever owned. This model came with our new build house and it has a slate of issue as a result of bad design. The core of the issue is ventilation. The washing cycle works fine enough, however during the drying cycle the dishwasher does not expel the steam well enough. The dishes do not dry at all, so you have to dry everything with a towel. We have owned this dishwasher for about 8 months and the inside is rusted, and the top rack broke today because of the rust. You might be saying to yourself, "just leave the door open". I leave the door open almost at all times to allow the dishwasher to air out. I have lived in many different apartments, and I have never had to actively maintain a dishwasher like I have this one. If you are going to buy this dishwasher, just know that you are paying for a objectively BAD product for the same amount of money you could use towards one that just works.

Good but not great
- February 22, 2024[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looks nice. Works great. But door doesn’t stay down, even with the bottom rack pulled out. And the silverware insert was very small, only about half the length of the bottom rack. We kept our old one to use in this dishwasher.

Doesn't even clean wet yogurt off the cup
- November 10, 2023[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First it took 3 weeks just to get the right fittings and cords, and then it wouldn't even clean wet yogurt off the bottom of the cup after it had been there half a day.

Not too loud, dishes are always clean
- August 25, 2025[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this dishwasher. It is not extremely loud, but you can hear it when it’s running. My dishes always come out clean and dry. The only thing that I am not liking is that the door doesn’t stay open when I’m loading the dishes. I have to pull the bottom rack all the way out for it to hold the door down. I’m not sure if it was an installation thing from the people that came to install it or if that’s just how the dishwasher door is. Just an FYI.

Nice dishwasher
- April 24, 2023[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher cleans the dishes really well and is a great dishwasher for the price. . The only thing that I don’t like about it is the door won’t stay down unless the bottom rack is pulled out. So, if you want to put something on the top rack, you have to pull the bottom rack out first or fight the door. Also it’s difficult to push the bottom rack back in due to the space on the side where it slides in.
