Q: QuestionHow many inches does the towel handle extend from the unit?(3 answers)
A: AnswerHi Mick, thanks for your interest in model SHX78CM5N. The handle sticks out 2 inches from the door.Answered by BoschAppliancesUSA
- A: AnswerHi HR2024, thanks for your question. The SHX78CM5N features an InfoLight®, this projects a spot of light onto the floor below the appliance door when the dishwasher is running a wash cycle.
Answered by BoschAppliancesUSA
- A: AnswerHi HR2024! Thanks for your interest in model #SHX78CM5N. This particular model does not have a built-in water softening system, so there's no need to add salt. However, if you're looking for models with this feature, you can explore the Bosch website for more options. For models that include a water softener, you'll find a salt container at the bottom of the dishwasher. Special dishwasher salt is added to prevent limescale buildup in areas with hard water. Simply remove the cap and fill the salt container as needed. The frequency of adding salt will depend on your water hardness and dishwasher usage. We hope this information helps and thank you for considering Bosch for your home appliance needs!

Bosch 800 Series TRULY Whisper Quiet
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!!

Quiet and Efficient, But with Some Minor Quirks
Bosch 800 Series 24" Top Control Smart Built-In Stainless Steel Tub Dishwasher with Flexible 3rd Rack, 42dBA - Stainless Steel I've been using the Bosch 800 Series dishwasher for a little while now, and overall, it's a solid performer. The cleaning power is excellent – it does a great job of making dishes spotless, even with tough grime. The noise level is impressive at 42dBA, making it one of the quieter models out there. However, I do have a couple of small gripes. The storage capacity is good, but not quite great. The third rack is a nice feature for utensils and smaller items, but I still find myself wishing for a bit more flexibility in terms of how things fit in the lower rack. One design quirk that stands out is the door – it’s either fully open or fully closed with no in-between state. This can be a little annoying when you’re trying to load dishes and don’t want the door wide open. Also, I wish the finished cycle light stayed on, rather than going off after a few minutes. Overall, it's a high-quality, reliable dishwasher with a few minor drawbacks. If quiet operation and great cleaning performance are your top priorities, this model should be a great choice.

Bosch is just the best
This is clearly the best dishwasher I have ever purchased. It cleans excellently and gets dishes dried and sanitized. It is so quiet that only the red spot light tells you it’s running. Nothing needs to be improved. I hope it lasts forever!
