What's great about it: Very quiet, clear glasses, no streaks or dullness
What's not so great: The racks don't have much flexibility
The dishwasher was easy to set up. It is extremely quiet. The wash cycle is long but the dishes come out clean and without streaks or dullness. The dishwasher has a large capacity but there is very little flexibility in the racks.
This product is... Convenient for time-delay, Good for delicate dishes, Quiet, Designed to save time and water, Well-matched to my appliances, Able to deliver spotless dishes, Great at drying dishes

What's great about it: Cleans well
What's not so great: No rinse only cycle-but read below.
First, I should mention that I didn't realize that this dishwasher did not have a separate rinse cycle until I got it home and installed. We don't run a full cycle every day and sometimes do so only twice a week. I have owned this brand before - a bit more upscale model- so I decided to just go for it. I have not been disappointed. I use the 'auto' cycle and even the 2 day old baked on cheese is nowhere to be found on dishes and flat wear. I replaced a fairly new whirlpool model that was in the house when I bought it that cleaned nothing and was loud. In addition the old one was too short to put the stone wear in and have the water arm go around. This one doesn't have an adjustable upper shelf but the bottom is tall enough for pots, tall plates. my plastic cutting board. So, I do not miss the rinse cycle and am pleased with this lower cost model
This product is... Convenient for time-delay, Good for delicate dishes, Great for pots & pans, Quiet, Designed to save time and water, Well-matched to my appliances, Able to deliver spotless dishes, cleans despite no rinse only cycle, easy to load-read the load instructions

What's not so great: Not a quality product overall
This is not a quality product. The Bosch dishwasher is hard to load, seems cheap, does not have as large a capacity as other like dishwashers and certainly does not clean the dishes as it should. Most disappointing appliance purchase we have had.
This product is... Quiet

What's great about it: Price, quality, efficiency, quiet
What's not so great: Slow drying
We got this model at a deep discount, thanks to a sale. Bosch is a great brand, and though we've only had the dishwasher for a month so far, we have been very happy. The model is very quiet, it looks good, the dishes get clean and it is engineered in such a way that the space inside the dishwasher is maximized. If I have any concerns at all, it is that there is no drying feature (steam dries), so that we have to wait longer to empty the dishwasher. Given that we knew about this going in, though, and that it might be an issue, this is a minor complaint.

THIS BOSCH DISHWASHER IS THE BEST ONE WE'VE EVER OWNED!! IT"S REALLY QUIET and EASY TO OPERATE.
No more stains or streaking and when done the dishes are dry.
We highly recommend having a BOSCH dishwasher.

What's great about it: Build quality, price
What's not so great: a little loud and a little small
This was purchased to replace a newish LG dishwasher that was out of warranty. Based on my experience with LG (not just dishwasher), please do not buy their products... now onto the Bosch.
I like it. It cleans really well and you can tell it is built very well. It is a bit louder than expected (and louder than my LG for that matter), but not a big deal because we mostly run it at night or when we are gone. It also seems like it does not fit quite as much. That said, it was worth the money spent, and I would recommend it.

What's great about it: great value
What's not so great: heated drying - there is a sanitize option but have not used it so far
I wanted the best of brands and most bang for my buck..and this was the deal for me. Bosche is a superior brand and created recognition for their products by being first to deliver really quiet dishwashers. However, they are a bit expensive. There was a great deal on this with only $20 on installation that made its price comparable to the midrange dishwashers like Maytags and Whirlpools.
I am liking it so far and recommend it.

Our second Bosh and we love it.

What's great about it: quiet, cleans well
What's not so great: racks not able to be rearranged
We purchased this model to replace a 21-year-old Hotpoint that finally gave out. I love this dishwasher. It is soooo quiet, I have to really get close to even hear it. I have to agree with the other review about the rack placement especially the bottom rack. It definitely does not hold as much as my old one and there is no way to rearrange the racks, only the utensil holder is removeable. It cleans very well, though, which to me is the most important asset. It also looks beautiful in my kitchen. I really wanted one with the controls I could see and not hidden as I read there were a lot of problems with "hidden" controls. Overall, great dishwasher, great salespeople at Best Buy, and great easy installation! Would definitely recommend this product and purchase at Best Buy!

What's great about it: Quiet
What's not so great: Both racks
Always wanted a Bosch and finally got one! It is very quiet, looks nice. However, both racks are very consumer UNfriendly. I have to use my dishwasher almost twice as often as the old one (for only two of us)because I can't figure out how in the world to make the racks fit nearly as many items. Very disappointed in this part of it.

What's great about it: It will even clean dried peanut butter off of a knife or spoon :-)
Great diswasher at a great price. I love the half load feature on the Bocsh. My Whirlpool dishwasher that was in our new home never got my dishes clean. It was so noisy and took forever to run a load of dishes, so I finally replace it with the Bocsh.
