Product review (5 stars): Perfect Quality Fitting To Attach To The Dishwashers Water Valve For Your Dishwasher Installation
Very high quality, and I used this today to install my new dishwasher myself.  I believe all new dishwashers use this larger fitting to attach to the water valve underneath the dishwasher now.  IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY DISHWASHER THAT YOU PURCHASE.  It is important that you get the correct "threads" on the fitting - this is called a "3/4 inch FGH (meaning "female garden hose" fitting) and I believe it is the thread all of the dishwasher water valves use now.  I also had a kit that I purchased 1 year ago on Amazon, it had what looked to be an identical elbow fitting, but the threads were finer, and it would not go on the valve at all.  Amazon got this one to me with same day shipping and saved my neck once again.  The other end of the fitting is a 3/8" compression, and that fits all braided common dishwasher hoses you will purchase to run the water through the water valve so it will go into your dishwasher to wash the dishes.  So, the big end of the fitting is the "3/4 inch  Female Garden Hose" threading (yes, if you take it outside and attach it to a garden hose, it will screw right on), and the other, smaller fitting is the 3/8 inch compression fitting and you can attach this to it&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Certified-Appliance-Accessories-Braided-Stainless-Steel-Dishwasher-Connector-with-Elbow-10ft/dp/B00UH2OIMC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Certified Appliance Accessories Braided Stainless Steel Dishwasher Connector with Elbow, 10ft</a>.  I bought that also 1 year ago, and I really like it because the line is nice and long at 10 feet.  In the picture you will notice you get a brass "elbow" with it - you will not use that, just keep it around.  That smaller brass connector used to be used to attach the braided hose line to the water valve.  Those typically are not used anymore.  It is always something, isn't it?
I would also like to say that I purchased a dishwasher from another company (Sears, because Amazon did not have under a Prime purchase) and I adore it.  The dishwasher is a Frigidaire 24" built in dishwasher , Model # FBD2400KW,&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Frigidaire-24-34-White-Built-In-Dishwasher/dp/B002F33WT6/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Frigidaire 24" White Built-In Dishwasher</a>.  I installed it today all by myself, and it has a simple elegance to it installed, washes, rinses, and drains like a champ, has a knob only on the front, is quiet, and gets the dishes gleaming clean.  I did purchase it in white, and it is beautiful.  I had a touchpad dishwasher before, all of which end up dead, and I would NEVER buy another one.  And .... after researching dishwashers for over one entire month online, it completes an entire NORMAL CYCLE wash, from start to finish, in 64 MINUTES, PERIOD.  There are SEVERAL companies and dishwashers for sale now that, are you ready, TAKE 3 AND 1/2 HOURS TO WASH A REGULAR LOAD OF DISHES !!!!!  Unfortunately, people do not find out this fact until that have it installed and THEN they go online to download the instruction manual for the dishwasher, and , there it is in black and white, "normal cycle 3.5 hours, heavy (soiled) 5 HOURS !!!"  Before you purchase ANY dishwasher, go online to a retailer, look under dishwashers, 24" built in, find one you are considering, then copy and paste the MODEL NUMBER into Google search, and the owners manual will come up.  If you go to the company website, i.e. Whirlpool.com, Frigidaire.com, etc., they have these publications too (i.e. owners manual, installation manual, specifications, etc).  The WASH TIMES ON ALL DISHWASHERS IS CLEARLY STATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL, JUST SCROLL DOWN IN THE MANUAL UNTIL YOU FIND THE PAGE THAT IT IS ON AND READ IT BEFORE  BUYING THE DISHWASHER.  I really do think, tho, that you will LOVE the Frigidaire dishwasher as much as I do, get this fitting and the braided hose I gave you the link for as well, install it yourself, and you will be very happy with it.  I hope this helps everyone, since, when the other elbow fitting kit I purchased a year ago&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Comllen-Stainless-Steel-Handheld-Dishwasher-Installation-Kit-48-34-Length-Brushed-Nickel-Dishwasher-Water-Connection-Kit/dp/B01L6WBMMA/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Comllen Stainless Steel Handheld Dishwasher Installation Kit, 48" Length Brushed Nickel Dishwasher Water Connection Kit</a>&nbsp;DID NOT FIT (SO DO NOT PURCHASE) , on my new dishwasher when I was ready, sitting on the floor to install it YESTERDAY, I probably sounded like a circa 1942 longshoreman.
