Review of the Frigidaire Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher

After finally giving up on our ancient Kenmore dishwasher we started researching our options for a new one. We finally settled on the 24 inch Frigidaire Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher in stainless steel. We didn’t want the cheapest model available, but we weren’t willing to spend a fortune either. We ended up with this middle of the road Frigidaire which cost $449. We purchased our dishwasher at Best Buy who offered free installation for any dishwasher over $399.

Some of the cosmetic features of the Frigidaire Tall Tub Dishwasher that we liked included semi-integrated controls and an attractive exterior. The integrated digital controls make cleaning the control panel much easier than if the dishwasher had traditional raised buttons. The digital buttons also make it a little more difficult for our 1 year old to change the settings on the dishwasher. The exterior of the dishwasher is very attractive with a large stainless steel handle and only a small strip of black containing the controls.

The features of the Frigidaire Tall Tub Dishwasher were what caused us to make our ultimate decision to purchase this appliance. First of all, the Frigidaire is Energy Star approved for efficiency which was very important to us. This dishwasher has a sanitize option which is nice if you have babies or toddlers, or if you do any canning, which we do. The Frigidaire Tall Tub Dishwasher also promised a hard food disposer which would get rid of food particles such as rice and coffee grounds which find their way stuck to your glasses after many dishwasher cycles. The interior of the dishwasher also features several moveable baskets, and some flip down cages which prevent small, light items such as plastic storage containers from flying around the dishwasher during a cleaning.

When we got our Frigidaire Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher installed we were anxious to try it out. After using the dishwasher for a few weeks, we are very happy with our purchase. We do still find some small food particles stuck to our glassware after very dirty pots and pans are cleansed, however they are few and far between. Our dishes have a gleam after a washing in the Frigidaire dishwasher that they used to only get after a hand washing. Our plastic glasses never find themselves flipped upside-down and full of dirty water anymore. One of the most surprising but nice features we found with our new Frigidaire dishwasher is how quiet it is. We have a very open floor plan and were used to hearing our dinosaur of a dishwasher quite loudly when it was running. The Frigidaire Tall Tub Dishwasher is amazingly quiet, at least to someone who used to have a very loud model. And the overall look of the dishwasher really adds to our kitchen. The stainless steel front does not get hand prints and other spots on it like I had anticipated, and the sleek exterior is very attractive.

Overall the Frigidaire Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher is a great option for families seeking a high quality, attractive dishwasher that is both efficient and quiet but doesn’t cost a fortune.
