Customers are delighted by the 800 Series dishwasher's superior cleaning performance and quiet operation. The convenient third rack is also a popular feature, allowing for efficient loading. While some users note the dishwasher's capacity is smaller than previous models and that cycle times can be lengthy, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive.

We bought a Bosch 300 in our other house. We liked the dishwasher, but as things and technology goes, bigger is better, right? YES!!! We just bought the Bosch 800 series and it is soooo quiet, I’m glad there is a little red light that shines onto the floor that signals it’s on and running. It takes time getting used to how to pack your dishwasher: silverware up top with spatula or whatever in the flat tray. If stuff does not fit there, use the extra basket. We are a house of 6 and when we have company, this thing is always running. I have 2 midnight bakers and the fact that the upper or middle tray is adjustable via the side brackets is pure bonus! Tilt it, level it out, raise it, lower it. I can fit cookie sheets, pans, mixing bowls, etc. I’m particular with placement. I place a plate, skip a row, insert next plate, and repeat. I do try to not overload it because it really gets things clean. The previous dishwasher in this house (not a Bosch) left a gritty residue on the plates, cups, etc. This dishwasher, I was amazed by how clean everything feels. We stick to FINISH Powerball Ultimate. We use FINISH Jet-Dry. It’s always been the go-to for Bosch. I have no regrets with this purchase. BOSCH 800 series is truly whisper quiet, I mean none of us hear it. I had Best Buy install and that went perfectly too! It’s been 1 month and all is well. In my other house, the 300 is at least 7+ years old. Still works but not as quiet as the 800. I spoke to family & friends who own an 800 series and theirs are 7+ years old and they still like it and are happy with their selection. That was what firmed my decision. I am so glad we bought this model. If it’s remotely in your price range, buy it!!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Best Buy for their exceptional customer service. Their flexibility in allowing me to reschedule the delivery date twice (my contractor completed my kitchen floor three months later) has been greatly appreciated. I am particularly impressed with this dishwasher; it is so quiet that I won't notice it is running without the red light projected onto the floor. The pots and pans are exceptionally clean and shiny, and there are no water spots on the glass or silverware. Additionally, all three racks are capable of accommodating various arrangements and height adjustments. The Home Connect BOSCH App is easy to navigate and allow me to remotely control some functions and monitor my dishwasher. The technician arrived on schedule, install the Dishwasher and go thru all the functions, answer all my questions of this Dishwasher.

After scouring through what seemed like endless dishwasher reviews and consulting with a friend with years in the plumbing and hvac business, our sites were set on the Bosch 800 series. The cycle options, adjustable racks, third flatware rack, and low noise level rating also helped in the decision to make the purchase. Since the installation of our new Bosch dishwasher and having used it quite often especially after a load of holiday dinner dishes and pans, we couldn’t be happier with the cleaning and drying results. The red LED light that shines on the floor when the dishwasher is on is a plus! Otherwise it would be hard to tell if it was running. It’s that quiet.
