Description:
The FFBD1821MS, by Frigidaire, has Energy Saver washing and drying options, but still seems to eat a little more power, as suggested by its slightly-above-average 280 kWh/year Energy Star rating, while it does not sound like the quietest 18-inch dishwasher around, with its typical 55-dBA noise rating. It also offers six wash programs, which include a 65-minute Energy Saver cycle.
Also known as: Frigidaire FFBD1821MW, Frigidaire FFBD1821MB.
