My oven is louder than this dishwasher
on August 29, 2016
Posted by: Elizabeth
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher is so quiet, it shines a light on the floor to indicate that it's running. My convection oven is louder than this dishwasher. About six months ago, we replaced our old dishwasher with this model. The old one was going strong after 24 years but the only thing quiet about it was the decal claiming how quiet it was.
Aside from the quiet, I like that this dishwasher has a flat front and sealed controls on top of the door. The sealed controls are easy to clean and unlikely to be damaged just because liquid spills in from the top. (I did not choose the dishwasher with mechanical buttons for this reason.)
I also selected this model for the uppermost utensil tray, and I've been glad I did. We promptly banished the utensil basket from the lower rack to a high, out-of-the-way shelf. The utensils get cleaner when they're not packed or nested, and the lower rack holds substantially more. Indeed, it takes the two of us quite some time to fill, and we only run it every few days. (I may also pop out and set aside the flip-down things in the center rack and the tall item support. I seldom use those, either.)
I'm a little annoyed that it keeps nagging about rinse aid. I tried the rinse aid sample that came with the dishwasher, and it left the dishes, and especially the stainless utensils, feeling slippery. Not wishing to add miscellaneous chemicals to my diet, I chose to refill the reservoir with white vinegar after that.
I chose the white finish partly to coordinate with older kitchen styling I still like and partly because stainless tends to show every fingerprint. I also took some of my own dishes to the showroom to check the fit, and found that the tine spacing on this model holds my bowls apart, so they do not lean on each other and are less prone to complete the cycle with debris wedged in between. Our results so far bear this out.
And, while it's difficult to say for certain, I'd say the new dishwasher is quite a bit more water and energy efficient than the old one.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quiet, versatile and outstanding!
on August 2, 2015
Posted by: Bargain Buyer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this product last week, had it delivered yesterday, and used it for the first time last night. This is my first time purchasing a Bosch dishwasher; my old dishwasher was VERY loud, and it always had issues getting dishes clean (always had water spots or grime regardless of whether I used rinse aids, etc.). It also developed a leak, and was pooling water under the dishwasher.
Let me start by saying, I am absolutely amazed at how quiet this unit is when it washes dishes; during a cycle, my husband thought it wasn't running and had to open it to make sure it was on (and got sprayed with water, haha). This dishwasher is awesome!
I was actually excited this morning (yes, I said excited!) when I had more dishes to wash, so I could try some of the different cleaning programs. So far, I am impressed with the different programs - regardless of the program, my dishes come out sparkling clean every time.
I did a lot of research on this product (and others) before purchasing this unit. I had a few key features in mind that my new dishwasher needed to have: low decibel rating, energy star, leak protection and NSF sanitize rating. When comparing other models/brands of dishwashers, very few met my qualifications (and all of the ones that did ended up being Bosch, haha).
I chose this specific model for the low decibel rating, the NSF sanitize feature, its Energy Star rating, the AquaStop leak protection, and the versatility it provides in being able to quickly and easily adjust the racks (literally, in a matter of seconds) to different heights based on the items you need to wash (an amazing feature I hope Bosch never gets rid of). I also LOVE the third rack for silverware, which leaves you with the ability to remove the silverware caddy for additional space on the bottom shelf. The 24/7 AquaStop leak protection will certainly give me peace of mind; no more pools of water in my future!
I must also share my delight in the InfoLight; although it wasn't something I needed to have in a dishwasher (nor was it something I was looking for), I find it very convenient, and honestly, without it, I'd never know when the dishes are done because the darn thing is so quiet!
The only thing I had left for wanting was the water softener feature, which apparently is available in the "chrome" model, but not the white model. Oh, well.
Advice I would give to potential buyers:
- Be prepared to be amazed! This thing is awesome, and has a lot of features that you can't find on any other dishwasher (or at least I couldn't)!
- The sanitize program sure does work, but be wary, folks.. it gets HOT; it moderately warped one of my bargain brand "dishwasher safe" glass tumblers. All of my other dishes remained undamaged/un-warped, so obviously the issue lies with this particular piece of glassware, not with the dishwasher.
- The dishwasher drain tube needs to be attached to a high-rise loop or an air gap, otherwise the water will drain back down the tube into the dishwasher, creating standing water in the bottom of your dishwasher.
- In order for your dishes to achieve proper "dryness," wait a few hours after your dishwasher cycle is complete. If you open it up immediately after a cycle, your dishes will still be wet.

Truly quiet
on July 7, 2016
Posted by: AtlanticCoast
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this dishwasher a couple of months ago and are enjoying the quiet evenings not beginning with crashing water and plates banging. Our glasses are again clean, with no film on the bottom. Silverware is clean, since spread out.
My only complaint is that (perhaps due to the extra shelf) there is not as much room for pots, so we end up washing them by hand.

One of the best out there!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Both mine & my daughters dishwashers lost their 'brains' from a power surge about 6 weeks ago, both about 5-6 years old ,2 different brands ,not Bosch. Her's never did wash well, brand name " S" ,both old enough to not spend $ on! I did some research & the most reliable was, you guessed it,Bosch! Bought 2 of them, put them in myself as I was an installer for yrs. We both love them! They came with hoses & power cord, Love the red lite on the floor as you can't hear them run !.Also the 3rd rack on top for silverware.,Recommend putting a surge protector as i did in the power line! Everything is too computerized these days ! they need the extra protection!

easy loading plus third rack
on December 3, 2016
Posted by: walnuts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dishwasher is easy to load and has a wide range of options for your dishes and silverware. It is easy to operate , runs very quiet and cleans the dishes perfectly. Some of the plastic food containers may be slightly damp at the cycle end but this is to be expected since the unit does not have a heated dry cycle. The dishes dry from the residual heat from the hot water wash and rinse. This is actually a plus since the plastic containers will not warp due to a high heat dry. I really like this feature.

Extremely happy with this dishwasher!
on January 15, 2017
Posted by: ibg6
We have had this dishwasher for over two years now and have had a great experience with it. There haven't been any issues with it so far- it cleans well and is very quiet. We run it 8-10 times a week and always use the sanitize option so dishes come out mostly dry. My advise to anyone looking for a dishwasher is to buy Bosch and stay away from brands whose names start with K, W, M or S.

FINALLY!!! A dishwasher that is QUIET!
on July 12, 2015
Posted by: Druze
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So happy that I have a quiet dishwasher. Still learning all the different wash cycles. Holds my Dansk dishes so well. We installed it a one week ago. Installation was straightforward. The yellow hanging bracket that seems to be just for shipping keeps everything neat in the back of the cupboard. If you are planning to replace an old dishwasher that plugs in, be sure to order the optional cord with plug. Otherwise this is a hard-wired installation.
