Bosch - 800 Series 24" Recessed Handle Connected Dishwasher with Stainless Steel Tub - Stainless steel

DO NOT buy the connected feature. As a dishwasher, you can't beat the Bosch brand. It's quiet, it's efficient, cleans everything exceptionally, and dries your dishes near perfect. After the 10 washes I've completed, everything works as intended. The stainless interior gives it a high-quality feel. Be sure to use detergent tabs and not liquid detergent, as the liquid will stain and drip on the interior, ultimately leading to decreased performance. Now onto the connected features. There is no auto loaded tab, which I would expect for an automated dishwasher. In other words, you can load one dishwasher tab at a time. On top of this, you MUST press a button on top of the lid before you can remotely start the dishwasher. While the exclusion of a tab loader is extremely disappointing, the fact I MUST hit a button before I can remotely start the dishwasher is an absolute deal breaker! Otherwise, you can simply set the timer for the dishwasher to start later. The point of a remotely connected dishwasher is to start the dishwasher when you forget! Naturally, if I forgot, I would never have hit the remote start button either! The other downside of setting up the dishwasher is the support for only 2.4ghz wifi. If your phone is set up to a higher speed 5ghz band on your router, you will have to force your phone to not only disconnect but to forget your 5g network. Security wise, while the ability to use WPS wifi set up is nice and easy to use, WPS is a known security issue. This is confusing because if they did indeed have the remote start button for security reasons, their use of WPS connections is the exact opposite of being secure. Until Bosch figures out what Home Connectivity means, I highly recommend you do not purchase this dishwasher.

Amazing dishwasher! We have the nastiest hard water in all of the universe. I purchased this dishwasher because it had a built-in water softener. While the directions were a little daunting at first, there are many settings that need to be set up initially, it was worth every second of reading the manual and figuring it out. Our dishes are coming out spotless and so very CLEAN! Our dishes and glasses look new. This dishwasher is VERY quiet, washes well, and dries beautifully. The dish capacity is a little smaller than our other dishwasher, but that has not been an issue. I also like being able to see when the dishes will be done on the outside indicator. This was a little more than I wanted to spend on a dishwasher, but it was worth every penny. I know I'm gushing, but this truly is an excellent dishwasher. I have never been happier with a dishwasher. Bosch nailed it with this dishwasher!

THIS IS THE FIRST DISHWASHER I HAVE THAT USING THE SALT SYSTEM ( SOFTENER) . 1. THE SALT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE BOX, SO I HAD TO RESEARCH THE SUBJECT AND ORDER THE SALT FROM AMAZON 2. THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT CLEAR ON HOW MUCH SALT TO PUT IN 3. THE SILVERWARE BASKET IS SQUARE AND I THINK TAKES TOO MUCH SPACE - MY OLD ONES ( 2) HAD EITHER 2 SLIM OR 1 SLIM BASKETS 4. MAYBE I AM WRONG, BUT THE LOWER RACK IS SMALLER THAN THE OTHER ONES.. 5. WORKS PERFECT, QUIET, DISHES ARE CLEAN - AGAIN, THIS IS MY 2 ND DISHWASHER AND I KNEW THAT BOSCH IS THE BEST BRAND FOR THE DISHWASHERS.

So this is a nice dishwasher, however Bosch made some of the installation difficult. The drainage hose has a large bulge on it, so you need a large hole in you cabinet wall to pass it through. The power cord included is too short if your plug is left of the dishwasher. Connecting the dishwasher to your WiFi is not straightforward. If you’re one of the few people looking at this for home automation, manufactures still have a way to go. Other than installation issues, it’s been trouble free, quiet and seems to clean well. The built in water softener helps too.

Integrated water softener was a requirement due to hard water in our area, so had narrowed down to Bosch. Very quiet. Glassware is crystal clear provided you keep the salt and rinse agent tanks appropriately filled. Bought this model since it was an open box. Home Connect setup worked fine on an Android device. Not sure I need to get notifications on my phone that the dishwasher is done running... I could see notification of being low on rinse aid or dishwasher tablets being useful.

Bosch makes high quality dishwashers and this is the best Bosch I’ve owned yet. Only drawback was I could only get the “Home Connect” application to sync with the dishwasher using an Android Device - it wouldn’t work with my IPhone.

I adore my Bosch 800 dishwasher. It holds so much more than my last dishwasher, and I can set it to finish in an hour on the Speed60 cycle. Also, it is SO quiet, I was checking it every day to make sure it was really working. Really. But it was. Like a Rolls Royce of dishwashers.

Needed something to fit a compact opening. This washer met that need and is super premium, near silent when running and has a quick wash feature, all in all very pleased.
