Hello everybody. I was wondering why we don't see Westinghouse dishwashers in the US anymore. I noticed that we see more frigidaires. Are the same? What were they like in the 2000's? What were the features between the 2? How did they differ? I'd like to know. Thank you.

I believe the WCI takeover just relegated what were two different brands offering the same appearance and identical features into one...
And Frigidaire won!

Seeing the Frigidaire thread the link goes to, and noticing the 'FRIGIDAIRE COMPANY -- Dayton, Ohio 45449' label there, kind'a reminds me of the "Mr. Martin Tanner, baritone of Dayton, Ohio" line, spoken in the Harry Chapin song, "Mr. Tanner"...
