Customers are saying

Customers find value in the 500 Series dishwasher's quiet operation, excellent cleaning performance, and convenient third rack. Many appreciate its ease of use and capacity, along with the sleek design. However, some users note that cycle times are lengthy, and a few have experienced issues with reliability and an unusual odor. Concerns have also been raised regarding fingerprint resistance and the intuitiveness of the controls.

    Did a lot of research before finally deciding this dishwasher. I found that bosch was the highest rating so thats how I decided. A lot of reviews said it was loud which i didnt care if it was loud or quiet, but honestly i had to put my ear up to the door the first time i ran it because I couldn’t hear it. I did have an issue the other day where it wouldnt switch off auto, but did. A quick reset and let me change it (dunno what that was about) So to sum things up so far we love it and hopefully dont have any more hickups with the modes

    We are very happy with the Bosch dishwasher. It is very quiet, as advertised. We love the 3rd rack for silverware and odd sized utensils.

    This dishwasher's quiet, as I have come to expect from Bosch (which I've owned before). The interior's reasonably roomy, too. But the controls are confusing and it's not unusual for dishes to be still wet at the end of a cycle. The "top shelf" approach for silverware just ensures that large items (pans, even glasses) need to go to the lower deck because they won't fit in the middle.

      Hi rcepuch, Thanks for your review. We are sorry to hear you are not getting the best drying results from this dishwasher model. Here are some tips that should help: 1. Use Finish® JetDry® rinse aid to help dishes dry faster. 2. For everyday use, we recommend Auto Cycle (Best for mixed loads of dishes with varying amounts of food soil). 3. Select special drying options like "Sanitize and Extra Dry". (Sanitize operates at a higher temperature to help eliminate bacteria and enhance drying results. Extra Dry Delivers enhanced drying results.) 4. Pull out lower racks first to avoid dripping water from the upper rack. If this doesn't resolve the issue, please contact our 24/7 customer service team at 800-944-2904, who would be happy to provide real-time troubleshooting and assistance. BoschAppliancesUSA

    Good Dishwasher But...

    The Bosch takes a bit to getting used to as far as loading and, at the beginning, loading. Overall, I would have given it a 3 1/2 or maybe even a 4 with the following exceptions. The second rack does not tolerate taller glasses, even at the lowered position. If there were no third rack there probably would be no problem. The other issue for me are the spines are all bent in one direction instead of straight up and down. For me that causes a little bit of an issue. As others have indicated, the lack of a heating element takes a little getting used to but putting the unit on Auto Air seems to work fairly well, but doesn't dry every thing completely. Overall, the Bosch cleans well and dries well enough,

    Cleans well and is quiet but a number of quirks

    We have had a Bosch machine in the past and it worked very well this one though is disappointing because it has been very difficult to start without having to reset it multiple times. still haven’t figure out exactly how to do that and there’s no instructions in the manual —have found some ideas online that we’ve tried which have worked but it’s not easy and if you bump the door at any time it must be reset. I would not recommend this particular model at this time.

    The dishwasher is very quiet and does great job at cleaning the dishes. But, if you don't use rise aid it wouldn't dry your dishes

    Very quiet. Dishes come out very clean and dry. Have only used auto setting but very satisfied. Bring some dishes to the store to see how they fit in racks.

    Not sure what I did wrong (I'm sure it was user error) but needed the installer to come back and help start it. The dishwasher would start and then immediately shut off. Neither of us figured out what the trouble was. I hope it's not a lemon!
