Customer Ratings & Reviews

Got this dishwasher in April 2024 when our last one packed up. In general it is a good dishwasher. The "air dry" or Auto Air is okay, does not always work. I like the hidden controls and the adjustable racks.

Ultra quiet dishwasher, sometimes I am not sure it is actually running. Dishes come out clean and dry. I only have 3 knocks against it and 2 of them are opinions. The first real complaint is the lower drawer. It jumps off track very easily. My 2 opinions are that the utensil drawer for the lower drawer is small as I believe Bosch wants you to use the 3rd tray for utensils. The other opinion is having to use the app to do a delay wash. I would prefer to press buttons to set a delay wash, again this is just an opinion as the app works fine. Great dishwasher overall.

Doesn't clean well - frying pans in main compartment and cooking utensils in 3rd (top) compartment. Glassware remains spotty. Drain blocks requiring frequent cleaning of the filter. Not impressed with this brand name. There were always somethings to handwash!

I've had this dishwasher for about 1 month and I could not be happier. It does a great job of cleaning and drying -- even plastics. I keep it on "normal" and "auto air" and so far everything has come out clean and dry. The technician who installed the dishwasher was fantastic, also.

This is the best cleaning dishwasher I’ve ever owned.

Beware if you use a delayed start, look at a different brand. We would have considered a different brand had we known what we do now that we own the thing. We knew it didn't have a delay start button, but were led to believe you could program the favorite button to do a delayed start. However this is not the case as of Feb 2025, you can program the favorite button for apparently everything except the delayed start. This leaves manually setting up the delayed start in the app the only option which is a nuisance when not everyone in the house has access to the app.

Great dishwasher, does all that is expected, including cleaning really well and drying if you let it dry for a while. Third rack is great. I bought Bosch because it is supposed to be the most reliable. I dislike reviews that are posted a week to 6 months on these type purchases, unless they break down. I’m hoping this lasts 20 years like our last one, so we don’t have to replace it soon. Our last one was 23 years old, so the rack efficiency is great. Can put a lot more in there. Our philosophy for long term purchases is don’t quiver over price, buy what is reliable and not just marked up because of name. This fits the bill. Granted, it would be better to give a review 10 years later.

My new Bosch 500 dishwasher is a delight! Very solidly made, incredibly quiet, everything comes out sparkling clean even running it only on the 60 minute cycle! So glad I chose it.

Really nice product. The top rack works great, keeps spoons from nesting to each other, has plenty of space for utensils. Also the outside rows can drop and give you 1/2 - 3/4 In. of extra depth. Bottom rack is great for plates, so-so for bowls, it's like the tines are just a fraction off from allowing proper fitment. Middle rack gobbles cups & glasses easily. Super quiet and it will send your phone a text when finished, but I wish there was an external indicator to show it was finished.

Excellent dishwasher Good cleaning and drying and easy to use handy app.

This is a good spacey dishwasher and super quiet. But the autodry feature (opening up to dry) stopped working after a couple weeks. also, there is no rinse function unless you set it by the app.

I prefer to have all my cooking utensils and silverware placed in an upright position. The small silverware holder doesn't provide adequate room for the items and there is plenty of space to have a longer basket. We plan on purchasing another basket. I don't care for the third upper tray; however, it is difficult to find new units that don't have this. It is relatively quiet. Find it limited in button options without having to use my phone to connect. The rack design is not adequate for my needs so it will take time to get used to the way I need to place items. The supports are too close to each other for half of the bottom tray.

This is the second Bosch dishwasher I have purchased and am very happy with it. The first was a 300 series and we couldn't take it with us when we moved. So at the next house I thought why not a 500 series? Very happy with the sleek design, buttons/control located on top, and no handle/bar accidental hitting or hang-up on the bar on your pants, wrist, etc. As expected the dishwasher is very quiet, and dries dishes very well. Have become dependent on that 3rd rack, like the RackMatic features and the flexspace tines. Our dinnerware is fiesta ware which is thick. So some dishwashers don't really accommodate dishes this thick, but this one does a good job.

Great as expected. product runs with no flaw. clean design. happy w purchase

Very quiet and easy to use. Internet connectivity is nice,

This model is definitely a step up in the sense that there are no physical buttons which can break or malfunction. Instead it has haptic touch controls! Perhaps a little quieter too - includes wireless and / or remote access for the connection to the dishwasher over WiFi.

Loving it so far (ony had it 6 weeks) It cleans well. I love that the filter is easy to clean and MAN this thing is quiet. Love the automatic pop open function when it is finished. Let's the dishes continue to dry.

Very quiet. Nice unit. But. Small utensil bin. And the pocket handle felt loose like it had a button to open the door but it did not. Needs delay button and a dry button on this series.

It's been a month and we couldn't be happier. Bosch dishwasher is the bomb!

Wife is happier as this is a much quieter than the previous dishwasher (not a Bosch). The 3rd rack is being used for silverware and small items like container lids and is a better usage of the space than the previous dishwasher.
