Customers are saying

Customers value the quiet operation, effective cleaning, and the convenience of the third rack in the 300 Series dishwasher. While many appreciate its efficiency and the peace of mind that comes with the Aquastop Plus feature, some have expressed concerns about the drying function and the requirement to use an app for certain features.

    The good news: This dishwasher is *really* quiet. We were accustomed to starting our old dishwasher at the end of the evening, so we'd be at the far end of the house while it ran its cycle. This Bosch is so quiet in all phases of operation that now, sitting 10 feet away, we sometimes ask "Is it on?" Slightly less good: The 3-level racks take some getting used to, and the top rack is quite limited in terms of space and arrangement. Also, some items require a little towel-drying after the standard drying cycle — but we accept that as better than the cost (in time and energy) of the Extra Dry setting. On the whole, a good selection, and Home Depot's installation was on time and well done.

    The dishwasher itself is great. Quiet, effective, lots of thoughtful touches. I hope it it gives me the same 22+ years my last Bosch gave me. My experience with Best Buy - not so great. I bought an open box model at a steep discount (some light cosmetic scratches I'll never see). No free install, okay; it was going to be $185 to have them install it. Not the end of the world. But then they were going to charge a delivery fee of $100, even though they also refused to deliver it - I had to bring a friend's SUV to pick it up. The $100 was because the installer was making a "special trip." So now it's about $300 to install a $565 dishwasher. Hmm. (I ended up doing it myself - since I was replacing an existing dishwasher it was super easy, basically a 10 minute job including leveling it.) Then they insisted I needed a junction box - "every Bosch needs a junction box," the appliances product specialist (or whatever title they have these days) said. Turns out - no. Mine had a 110V plug and, under the sink meant just for the dishwasher, guess what, a 110V outlet. Returning it was easy, but did require another trip to the store, which was a lot less organized and more chaotic than I remember. (I worked at stores 32, 33, and 150 for about 7 years, in high school and college.)

    This machine is replacing a 10 year old Whirlpool that was leaking. We have had the Bosch dishwasher for about 2 months now and can't be happier. The Bosch is quiet and powerful enough to clean everything we placed in it without any issues. Only issue is some of the plastic items(like Tupperware) not completely drying. This could also be a setting that I have to adjust. Overall very happy with the purchase.

    I like how quiet this model is, and that it has three racks, one being adjustable in height. Organization of dishes in racks is more intuitive. It's got a simple design, and control via app. One thing that it does not do too well is dry dishes. They recommend adding a rinsing agent each time, but now that's more money. The installer warned that today's models last only 5-10 years (compared to my last one, which lasted 18 years). He said that the things that fail are either the heater or the electronics. My last dishwasher, despite almost catching on fire due to a recall I didn't know about, had all mechanical buttons and very little in the way of electronic components. Such is the case for so many of today's appliances.

    This is a great dishwasher, purchased based on multiple good reviews from trusted sources. It's even quieter than advertised! Excellent cleaning, and very easy to load. The adjustable middle rack is great. Dries well, except for large plastics.

    Have only had a few weeks, but we are very satisfied with this dishwasher! We don't "pre-rinse" dishes and the dishwasher has no problem handling everything. Glass comes out sparkling clean. This model is quiet, but not soundless as some other reviews make it seem. This doesn't bother us at all and its still much quieter than most

    The 60-minute cycle cleans our dishes just fine. We don't load really heavily soiled dishes, but they aren't generally rinsed off, either. i only gave 4 stars because I don't like the racks, which don't hold the dishes in place very well.

    Washes brilliantly, dishes have never come out of our previous dishwasher as clean! Glasses are spotless. The third rack for flat utensils and silverware is great. Everything feels sturdy and well built. Dishes come out totally dry and handles plastics well. Quiet even on the heavy setting, smart features are a nice plus; you can choose to prioritize different things (sound level, sanitization, cleanliness, etc) with Smart Wash and even change button sound levels.

    Bought this to replace a 4yr old Whirlpool dishwasher that had to many issues over a short period of time. I’m very happy with the Bosch, heats well, dries well (even plastics), doesn’t take forever. The only thing we’re still getting use to is the top 3rd rack for utensils and having a basket. I’m debating whether to just total remove the basket for the extra space of larger items. All in all, this is a great dishwasher. Should’ve bought a Bosch 4 years ago instead of the Whirlpool that was only a little cheaper.

    Works well but we were spoiled by our meile for years which is 2x the price. This is always good at cleaning dirty dishes and is so quiet I don know it is on....but the flip side ofvthat is I don't know if it is done either. Only complaint is how dishesvfit relativevto the meile....it is a little less efficient but this is a small nit

    We were disappointed that it doesn’t dry. The front door is always wet and items higher up in the machine are also wet. I’ve been told that is normal. The Bosch is super quiet, has good cleaning options but I’ve needed to dry dishes and silverware. The higher grade Bosch dishwasher are suppose to have different drying systems.

    I bought this because it is white and had all the features I was looking for. It is very, very quiet! I can hardly tell it is running. It is roomy, and I have found the 3rd rack useful. Dishes are clean and dry, except for the bottom of mugs put in upside down and not tilted.

    After price-stalking this unit for the better part of a year, I finally got for Black Friday and it is absolutely worth every penny! I love how whisper quiet it is, and it gets everything really clean no matter the cycle I use. I did notice a little warping of some plastic lids for some mixing bowls after using the sanitize feature, but other than that, I’ve had not problems thus far. I LOVE IT!!
