Customer Ratings & Reviews

I've had this dishwasher for almost 2 years and I really like it - it's quiet and cleans really really well. I love the auto air feature, dishes come out dry and shiny. The rack placement is something to get used to but I think the top rack is great for silverware and smaller flat dishes. Very happy with it!

Learning curve but once i figured out settings its great! Read manual and program auto air setting it does not come turned on from factory. I run at night and dishes are dry by morning. Best to use Finish tabs and finish jet dry. There is an additional dry setting that can be programmed in settings that uses extremely hot water at end of cycle but i found no need for me. Weiman Stainless Steel cleaner and polish works like a charm. Super Quiet! Love it!

High quality, well designed, good performance. Easy to use, very quiet operation.

Very quiet and easy to use. Dishes are spotless when the cycle is complete.

Good performance. It is a good thing it has a red light projected on the floor to tell me it is running, otherwise I could not tell. The third rack at the top for the flatware is great. It adds to the efficiency of sorting and putting away the silverware. This frees up the basket on the bottom shelf so that I can remove it making room for more pots and pans. The layout of the three racks is more efficient than that of my old dishwasher. Adjusting to the different patterns needed to load the dishes was one of my biggest challenges, but that was not a very big problem.

I'm extremely happy with this dishwasher. It holds almost twice as many dishes, bowls and utensils as my old dishwasher, and is extremely quiet.. To the point that I wasn't sure it was running the first time (if the red light shining on the floor is solid, it is running). My only negative comment is that the auto cycle takes about 3.5 hours to run, but the dishes are definitely clean. It uses very little water and very little soap. I haven't tried the quick cycle yet, which is only 1.5 hours, but most of the time we run over night, so it can take 7 hours for all I care.

So far I love this and it does a great job cleaning. I will say within a week one of the small plastic clips on the drawer did break. Additionally, it had the smallest silverware holder I have ever seen. Ended up purchasing a bigger one separately. It does have top third shelf which I ended up loving!

Very happy with this product. More quiet than I thought it would be. Self installed and only problem I had was that I thought it was not working because I couldn't hear it running ! Washes well, no heated dry so takes a bit longer but still love it. Holds a lot of dishes and like third rack. Would recommend it.

If there is a better dishwasher out there, I don't know where you can find it. Our previous dishwasher never got everything clean. Now everything comes out spotless. And it is significantly less noisy than any other dishwasher I have been acquainted with. Except for the Bosch in my parents' house.

Very quiet and cleans perfectly! Love the air dry option!

Great machine, easy install, quiet and really scours everything

This is my second one in about seven years. Super quite and cleans much better then the old model. The air dry feature was the kicker.

The Bosch 500 dishwasher is widely recommended and well-reviewed, so I felt comfortable buying and installing it. I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of install and most impressed with documentation that was easy to follow and clearly illustrated. Best of all, each step included a QR code that linked to a short video that showed the step more clearly. This made it easy to use the install instructions and only refer to the videos for parts that I wanted to clarify. (Usually orientation-related, the videos used wonderful 3-D rendering to make front/back or right/left kinds of things much clearer!) The unit is amazingly quiet, does a spectacular job of cleaning the dishes, and is both energy and water efficient. My only criticism is the runtime. Although you can choose other settings, the normal, automatic setting takes 2:45. Once I got past this in my head, I realized it made no day-to-day difference. I usually run it in the evening, I don’t hear it, it pops open when it’s done, and everything is dry by the next morning!

Quiet and well designed. Also dries very well and I like the controls. The door opening at the end is great. All and all happy so far.

Really quiet, cleans good, good install, nice salesperson,

This dishwasher is overall pretty fantastic. It has a low profile (love the lack of handle) and blends in really well to my countertop. I am a big fan of the third rack up top, which has become my new default spot for utensils and flatware. The adjustable middle rack is also great to let me fit pieces of different sized in. Kinda lets me treat loading the dishwasher like a puzzle to be most efficient, which I enjoy (don't let that dissuade you, you don't have to treat it like that haha). Of course, the best thing about Bosch dishwashers is how quiet they are, and this definitely is. I sometimes forget that I've turned it on, and am grateful for the red LED that tells me when its running. The only thing I wish is that it dried a little better, but I probably just need to find a good rinse aid to further improve that efficiency. It helps that you can set it to automatically open the door at the end of the cycle to allow for air drying! I had it delivered and I arranged the install independent of Best Buy. The delivery crew was prompt and polite, no issues there.

Without going into every little detail; I have found this washer to be as described. Very quiet, cleans better than any I've had before, and was well worth the money.

I am truly satisfied with my Bosch dishwasher. Well worth cost. My dishes are cleaner than ever. The Bosch is so quiet I can't tell if it is on. Also, the two gentlemen that installed it did an excellent job. They were very knowledgeable about the functions of the dishwasher. They were very polite and professional. Thank you very much.

We bought a house (2400 sq ft) and could hear the included dishwasher from anywhere inside it. We immediately upgraded to this, having spoiled ourselves on a Bosch dishwasher in our previous house. Yes, it is expensive, but it works amazingly well (even with our hard water) and is so amazingly quiet. You won’t regret it.

My 10-year-old Bosch dishwasher died. I went online searching for new Bosch because quality and durability. We have three children, and so the dishwasher will frequently be run three times in a day, so 10 years longevity is outstanding. The new dishwasher is whisper quiet, the third rack allows for easier placement ofcertain items, the second rack is easily adjustable up and down depending if you have pots and pans. I’m extremely satisfied with my upgrade!
