We had a 15 year old GE profile dishwasher that was part of the house when we bought it. After the control panel gave out and the home warranty ( Service Plus) took more than a month to replace the panel (and still hasn’t) we jumped at the Black Friday opportunity to get the Bosch ( highest rated) dishwasher with a pretty nice incentive.
The washing of this machine is definitely of another order. Especially the glasses come out much shinier and the plastic containers are dry … what a nice surprise. Even the very low noise ( can’t really hear it at all) and the low energy consumption ~$43/ year!! if I recall correctly are great. The little light on the floor that shows it is running and when it is done is a nice/cool gimmick but the third drawer and adjustable heights of the 2nd and 3rd racks are something I didn’t know I needed until I had it and now wouldn’t know what to do without it. All in all very happy customer Best Buy and Bosch!

Excellent dishwasher! I was skeptical at first because I really enjoyed my Siemens dishwasher that lasted 19.5 years and did not want to give it up as it had NEVER broken down plus still looked brand new. I am now a believer in this high end model after having used it for the last few weeks. At first I hated the new silverware rack up on top but now I truly enjoy loading it. I appreciate that some of the tines fold down to accommodate loading easier on the top and lowest rack. Crystal Dry is amazing. Also, the time left in a cycle projected on to the floor is helpful. Overall, an A+ for this model!

Purchased to replace old 800 series dishwasher (finally broke down after 12 years of excellent use). Upside: extremely quiet, cleans very well, good and flexible controls. Overall excellent dishwasher, with some limitations. Downside: despite nominally the same interior size as its predecessor (800 series) the effective capacity is lower. Less efficient arrangement of the racks does not allow for optimal space use, requiring more runs for the same amount of dishes - wasteful. Also the silverware basket is much decreased (half size compared to old 800 series), additionally spacers in it are too small for most of standard size silverware, further limiting its usability. Thus 4/5 rating.

Bosch Benchmark Dishwasher @ Best Buy

Bosch Benchmark Dishwasher is pretty awesome. The experience with Store purchase, arrangement for installation, actually installation and operation of new dishwasher has been fabulous. The product is super quiet; and dishes come out fabulous. The added features of a light, water softener, Crystal dry, etc worth it. Best Buy was only retailer in SWFL, that had the "Benchmark on Display" and resources at the Store in Sarasota were phenomenal.

We've had the dishwasher for almost a month, and it runs great, is quiet, and cleans well. For the price and all of the features, it lacks the ability for the user to program in a longer or "Crystal Dry" program into the 60 minute wash program. Just because I want to use the short program for a small load or relatively clean dishes, why should the user not be able to make sure the dishes come out dry? Without Crystal Dry, the inside of the tub and the dishes are not usually dry and require some drying when you take them ouf of the dishwasher, later. Also, this machine would probably also achieve even better drying if the door popped open a bit at the end of the drying cycle. Still, it does a good job with the longer cycles and my wife likes it, as well.

My previous Bosch SilencePlus with 40 db was much quieter and also came with free installation and Dishwasher Accessory Kit SMZ5000 included. Don't haul your old dishwasher before saving these accessories as it costs another $29 (promotional value or more expensive individually). Timelight is cool. App is flaky and took a while to setup. Internal light is pretty useful too. Not sure if roller racks are really premium as they are the same except wheels. No color choices for. Waited a while and it never went on sale, even for Labor day, given it is new and expensive. Gave 4 as my last Bosch was good experience though it gave Watertap and E.24 repeatedly while it lasted 10+ years. Hope this will be long lasting. Only time will tell.

Positives: Dishes always come out clean, even baked on macaroni and cheese. Extremely quiet, barely can tell it is running, need to check if the time remaining is being projected on the floor. Automatic cycle works great. The one negative is trying to get the dishwasher connected to the app. The user guide plus stickers and inserts really pushes to connect it to the app, but it is a complicated process that i never got working after spending 20 minutes following all the steps. Not really necessary, other than to check time remaining from the couch.

This dishwasher is extremely quiet. The sound of water going down the drain is louder than the dishwasher. Also, the dishes come out clean.

Would not buy again.

Would not buy again, because:
- have to download an app to program to start in 2 or 4 hours ahead. Refuse to download another app.
- Doesn't have an indicator for when dishes are clean so others in the household know to empty the dishwasher. Perhaps in it the app, but Grandma (unloading is her job) barely uses her cell phone.
- doesn't dry completely, so I can't wash certain things without having rust spots
- didn't include the test strip for hard water as promised
- settings are way too complicated, and I have a college degree
- I miss my old dishwasher, it was just as quiet, easier to use, dried completely and had indicator lights. No app required. And WAY less expensive.
The only plus is the capacity, however tall cups and glasses only fit on the lower rack and they aren't anchored so they jostle during washing.

Well made dishwasher with terrific cleaning performance. Crystal Dry will dry everything but some of the plastics but certainly on par. I really like not having a heating element at the bottom. Cleaning is superb. Have used Meile before and was unsure if Bosch would clean as well. You will not be disapointed with the Bosch. I've put dried on food through this thing without soaking or prewashing. It cleans it all without issue. It is very quiet and would need a silent room to notice it's on. As far as the benchmark vs 800, I got mostly for softener and ball bearing racks. However, the lights and floor timer I have found to be alot more useful than I thought would be. I run this twice a day for a family of 8.

Outstanding and nearly inaudible dishwasher. I love the ability to set a later runtime with the smartphone app. Dishes are solidly clean. Beautiful stainless steel exterior. Highly recommend.

When we decided to replace our appliances, it was an easy decision to pick a Bosch Dishwasher - top quality, excellent performance, quiet and Aqua Stop for that extra peace of mind that it nis always nice to have. Our Best Buy installers were excellent. We could not be more pleased.

I love this dishwasher. It’s the best one I’ve ever owned. It’s quiet and cleans incredibly well. All of the parts feel extremely well made and heavy duty. It was expensive but it’s worth it if you can splurge. After having a lot of so so dishwashers, this one feels like a luxury.

Love this dishwasher. Third rack for silverware ensures silverware is cleaned well and makes it easier to load and unload without bending down. Light in dishwasher is another great idea. Dishwasher is very quiet. And, I can run it from my phone.
