Bosch - Evolution 300 Series 24" Tall Tub Built-In Dishwasher - White

When looking for a new dishwasher the most important features to us were quietness and looks. We needed this new dishwasher to be very quiet since our kitchen is open to our family room and our old one made it impossible to run while we were watching TV. Great looks is our next must have and this dishwasher hit the ball out of the stadium on both features. So quiet it has a light that shines onto the floor so you can tell it is running. One irritation when we first ran the dishwasher was a very loud, repeating beeping to let you know the dishwasher is done running. I read the manual and learned how to disable that feature immediately. The top rack is smaller than my old one so we strictly use it for glasses and cups. The lower rack is better than my old one because the layout is more functional because they are so many variations you can put plates, bowls and cookware and make it all fit logically. Silverware holder is big and roomy. Clips onto side so it stays out of the way but easy to remove for putting away clean silverware. I noticed from previous reviews people complained about their dishes coming out wet at the end of a cycle. We have only noticed the tops of glasses and cups having minimal amount of water the same as with our old dishwasher with the exposed heating element on the bottom. We followed the manual instructions and use the sanitize button along with the recommend spot free rinse liquid and the normal wash button and the dishes are great looking and dry.

wonderful improvement from our 12 yr old kitchen-aid dishwasher: more interior space (though we're still figuring out how to organize our dishes), much quieter, gets dishes & glasses super clean (we use 1/2 tablet of dish cleaner, along with "green" compostable rinse aid from safeway). this dishwasher does take a very long time - maybe 2 hrs 15 min - but as with our old dishwasher, we can open it from time to time in mid-cycle to add another small item. we're happy with our purchase. we also think the black looks great! btw - according to the instructions, it's normal for the lights on top to turn off after you shut the dishwasher door; a light on the bottom stays on to let you know it's running. also, this dishwasher beeps when it's done; we've tried to disable the beep per instructions but it didn't work so we're still working on that.

There are 40+ reviews of this guy on Google reviews. Most in the 4-5 star range. We agree. Our house is really quiet. If you're in the kitchen It's not whisper quiet, but our microwave drowns it out. If you walk a bit away, it's silent. Totally cleans and dries every dish, tho we rinse off egg and cereal flakes. Wine glasses are crazy clean! And per our installer, we don't use any rinse aid since we have soft water. We do use the sanitize option. Beautiful stainless exterior door & hidden controls. Loading prongs seem overpopulated, but we've adjusted. We needed the measurements of this smaller compartment unit to fit our cabinet. Takes quite awhile to complete a cycle, so if we start a run after dinner, we may be in bed before it finishes on workdays. The unit may then stay on for the night. Not sure that does much but keep three LED lights lit, but seems like an odd factory default. But we still would enthusiastically recommend this product to our friends.

Bought this when my old dishwasher died. Pros - Works great. Haven't found a dirty dish yet (unlike my old dishwasher). This is very quiet - I can't tell it's on unless I'm actually in the kitchen. I'm happy to say the stainless steel on the outside does not attract fingerprints easily. This was one of my concerns about going with stainless steel. Dishes are dry at the end of the cycle (except for the usual areas that water is trapped like the tops of cups). Cons - It is taking some time to figure out the best way to load the dishes because the tub seems smaller than my last one. The silverware baskets can only be placed in one position which takes up a lot of room. But the racks are adjustable which is helpful. I am very happy with this purchase.

Coming from a loud and too small dishwasher, this unit is wonderful. I have had little issue finding an appropriate place for all of our dishwasher-safe dishes. The top rack even holds a number of our large souvenir type cups with room to spare. Our previous dishwasher could barely fit them on the lower rack; there was no way they'd make it on the top. It's also ridiculously quiet. While shopping, it seemed that this was generally the case these days, but hearing (or not hearing) it myself is awesome. If it weren't for the glowing red light coming from the bottom, I often wouldn't even know it was running. The main complaint I have is pretty minimal, but the utensil holder is pretty...plain? There are six baskets, with two flip covers that cover three baskets each. This makes it very difficult to do a large load of silverware while also loading small items like sippy cup no-spill adapters.

This dishwasher was a major upgrade to the one it replaced. You cant hear it really at all when it is on.

awesome unit~ my kids didn't even know it was running as they were at the table right next to it. Cleans dishes spotless and sleek design is timeless

This dishwasher looks great in our kitchen. The price was right and it does the job...quietly.
