Greetings!
I bought a Frigidaire FDBB4365FC3 dishwasher from Best Buy in Hyannis, MA in July 2008. While my experiences have been nowhere near as bad as others, I figured that I might be able to help some consumers out by steering them away from certain Frigidaire dishwasher models in a reasoned and non-rant format.
As I have researched my dishwasher model online, I have become convinced that there is a serious design flaw in Frigidaire dishwashers with the plain no-buttons-on-the front models. The flaw (or flaws) result in a greater chance of leaks, steam damage to cabinetry and eventually steam damage to the dishwasher itself.
This blog (and in particular this entry) was created to bring awareness to this dishwasher and the poor design effort by Frigidaire.
Why am I doing this? Several reasons:
1) I don't want people to make a blind purchase choice like I did without doing some research on the model.
2) I want to see if I can find other people who have also experienced the same problems I am describing with similar Frigidaire dishwashers
3) Obviously, I'm trying to get the attention of somebody Frigidaire other than the friendly (but ultimately powerless) people in the consumer support department.
In the next couple of posts I'll cover: My purchase experience, leaks, customer service part 1, first signs of steam issues, circuitry failure, customer service part 2 and my research this month.
Feel free to leave comments about your experiences with Frigidaire dishwashers.

So far I am very happy with the new dishwasher. It's very quiet and does a good job.
