Bosch - 800 Series 24" Pocket Handle Dishwasher with Stainless Steel Tub

Here are the things that I was looking to get answers for when I was researching this dishwasher. First it’s black stainless. It is a gray black not a brown black. It doesn’t show finger prints. It’s a good thing that there is a tiny red light that shines on the floor when it’s running because you can’t hear it. It cleans, I mean really cleans. I refuse to wash my dishes before I wash my dishes. I have tried to put the worst dishes with caked on sausage gravy, bbq sauce, ketchup, salad dressing. You name it. I even left the yuck stuck on them for days and they come out SPARKLING!! Don’t worry that there isn’t a heating element. It dries your dishes. I seriously can’t say enough great things about this Bosch dishwasher. The only slight con is the same con consumer report had...configuration. The top rack... I use for shaker cup lids, cutlery, measuring cups. The 2nd...rack cups, glasses, bowls. The 3rd rack (this is where it’s not perfect. Some of the tines are close together which makes it creative for pots pans and large items. But I don’t care. THIS IS THE BEST DISHERWASHER EVER!!! Sorry I got excite I just can believe how well it cleans, and how unbelievably quiet it is.

After going back and forth on two different brand dishwasher to purchase, we decided on the 800 series Bosch. Our initial concern was drying of dishes without heating elements. I am so glad to have bought the Bosch 800. The dishes dry almost completely, plastics have a few drops on them, but the quality if the wash if far better than any previous dishwasher I have ever owned. There is some installation concerns if you are replacing an existing unit that does not have plumbing and electrical connections in the Bosch locations. And the remote transformer that is needed to be installed outside the standard dishwasher cavity. With a few new holes in our cabinetry, we were able to install this with not too much trouble. The end result justified the additional install work. As a bonus, it is by far the quietest dishwasher I have seen.

Very quiet, love the 3rd rack for the odd small items such as chop sticks & straws. Anyone that complains about how this loads shouldn’t reproduce... Great for parties with wine tastings due to short wash cycles. Excellent for heavy loads with many pots & pans. Overall, it operates as advertised. Side note plus, built in our state.

This is a great appliance! It cleans well and the fact that i can’t actually really hear when it is running is the best plus for me! The third rack for small things had been the most convenient with kids and the amount of meals I cook!

It looks as good as a dishwasher can. I like not having a brand name advertised on the front panel and the recessed handle gives it a clean look. It’s also very quiet. My only criticism is lack of a built in disposal, but I’m not giving Bosch a star demerit because I couldn’t find a modern dishwasher that still has a disposal. Clean out procedure is simple enough and the missing disposal does make it quieter and more energy efficient. Bonus points for being manufactured in New Bern, NC

We needed a quiet and higher end model for an open floor plan kitchen, since the sink was in close proximity to our living area TV and this was perfect. It runs extremely quiet and we don’t realize it’s running until you see the LED red light indicator shining on the floor, telling you that is in a cycle. The only time it really makes any type of moderate noise is when it drains to the sink, which is very quick and really isn’t a negative in my opinion. I highly recommend this model for anyone needing a quiet wash and a pretty thorough cleaning.

You get what you pay for when you buy a Bosch - a high quality appliance with excellent cleaning ability, versatile rack layout, and ultra-quiet operation. Thank goodness there is a red light that shines on the floor when it is on because it is so that quiet you can't actually tell - the ticking of my kitchen clock is louder! And Best Buy installation was punctual, quick, courteous, and professional - in fact flawless. Highly recommended!

I have looked at all options and the Bosh might rarely ever be on sale but it is money well spent . The black stainless steel finish comes in flat only the touchscreen option is easy to use . You will not hear this washer run but the right bottom red LED light will indicate that the dishwasher is running . When thI cycle finished you will hear a quiet beep
