We bought this dishwasher on sale and it’s worth every penny! It has different useful programs and it projects a light to the floor while it’s working so I know when it’s working and when not, rather than to open the door every time to check. It also works so silent, sometimes I had to check if it’s working at all. Best value for money and great dishwashe
Works ok. Nice and quiet. Prefer the old version really though with the cutlery basket rather than tray. You can just throw cutlery into a basket but have to ‘place’ cutlery individually into the slots on the new version. Much more room on the old version. Top cutlery tray on the new takes height off the top cup/bowl/glass tray. Glasses with tall stems have to sit in the bottom tray, taking out the use of half of the bottom tray too. You can raise the top tray slightly but I could fit large oven trays in the bottom of the old machine but you have to take the top tray out altogether. All in all, you can’t fit as much into the new design and moving trays/taking trays out is a pain, just for the sake of a cutlery tray!
Think it was designed by somebody that doesn’t use one!
Our previous Bosch dishwasher ran most days since 2006 without a hitch, survived 2 house moves and the kids (ab)using it too. A main board failure was it’s final demise and repair was not economic. Now with smart connectivity and a range of options we’ll see you again in 2038.
Good although I do not like the top basket. Very awkward getting.items in and then keep falling over …. enough tbh not to personally buy another of these.in the.future.
I am hoping for a long service life from this usually reliable brand. It is quiet with a good range of programs. The reason for not giving 5 star is that the use of a liquid rinse aid is really essential to get optimum results, where as my pervious unit achieved similar dryness levels with just a combination tablet.
Also I did chose the cutlery tray over a basket, just to point out this appears to limit the height of the upper drawer.
This is the 3rd dishwasher I’ve had. The first was a Hotpoint, sometimes it clean the pots sometimes it didn’t, quite often got a flashlight error but couldn’t find anywhere what it meant. Second dishwasher was a CDA and was just total junk. The 3rd, this one, quite, works well and cleans the pots, couldn’t ask for more.
Very happy with this dishwasher. My last one was a slightly more expensive AEG one which had similar features but I have to say I prefer this one. I installed it myself and it was quite straight forward however you need to be wary of the cupboard door size you have. I didn’t realise it when I bought it but the maximum door size this is compatible with is 725mm (if memory serves) and my door was 732mm tall. Doesn’t sound a lot but it’s not compatible with my Wickes kitchen cupboard door. To overcome the problem I lowered the dishwasher and installed a sheet of 12mm MDF between the dishwasher and worktop, and then raised the door. It was either that, or shave 7mm off the bottom of my cabinet door which I think would have looked weird. My work around worked perfectly well and I finished it off with a bit of white plastic moulding. You would never know I had to bodge it but I was lucky.
The dishwasher itself performs very well. It cleans much better than my last one ever did particularly when washing stubborn things like peanut butter or Nutella which I used to have to hand wash before dishwashing on our old machine. This beast cleans everything perfectly every time. I was amazed.
The floor display is brilliant as you always know what it’s doing and how long is left and I’m surprising myself by saying the app notification that tells me the dishwasher is finished is surprisingly useful.
The trays are very versatile and allow me to fit a lot more in than I expected.
I basically can’t fault the machine with the exception of the door size limitation which seemed really odd. I don’t think my doors are an unusual height, they are a standard white gloss cabinet door from Wickes.
Anyway – yes I would highly recommend. Just check the door size you have or be prepared to add a sheet of wood between the machine and the worktop.
Great machine. Had some issues with the the Amazon installation service as door was left unhinged on one side and the integrated door was foulling the base. Bosch engineer out to resolve both issues and machine is now working fine and cleans efficiently.
cleans very well easy to use, good buy, experience reduced by hopeless installation instruction. Tried following less than helpful diagrams, in the end we gave up and just used logic which worked well.
I bought this as a replacement for my previous Bosch dishwasher , thinking that the door facing panel would be able to use the original fixing holes.
No way!!
I had to plug the original fixing holes and re-drill new holes , some less than two millimetres different in position !
apart from that the rest of the installation was straightforward It does a fine job washing the dishes so i am well pleased with its abilities. recomended
