Score 9.0/10+ Simple to use and shorter wash cycles than my last Bosch.
- The dishwasher rack is static so you can't fold down any of the bits for flexible stacking. Saying that, I think a lot of machines are similar!

Score 7.0/10+ I have had Bosch dishwashers for 30 years and the layout is similar.
-
programmes take longer
Filter is harder to clean as it comes out in one piece which is larger and more unwieldy
purchased 14 May 2009
keith, larkfield
Score 9.0/10+ Quick wash is between 26 and 36 minutes. Cleaning is good and it is very quiet
- not easy to put items in top rack due to the plastic trays in it. it is impossible to fill the bottom rack as the dividers are to close together and the dishes come out dirty. also on the quick wash everything comes out soaking wet so you have to buy an expensive drying agent then its ok
purchased 08 Feb 2009
Jayne, Middlesbrough
Score 9.0/10+ inexpensive, excellent results, not very noisy, my last bosh dishwasher lasted over 8 years
- none found up to now

Score 6.0/10+ Quiet. good choice of washes.
- Nothing like as good as my 25yr old Miele - difficult to pack, as the Miele had shelving units you could remove for large dishes etc. This means I could use the machine more often, but less full. However, i don't as it's such a bore to fill (maybe I'll get used to this). It also removes silver plate from cutlery much more quickly, despite using the same detergent etc. However, I'm biased because I had The Best before - I suspect this is one of the very best for today.

Anonymous verified purchaser
Score 9.0/10+ It's the newer model of one I owned for years and was very pleased with.
- When you open the door, it isn't a slow open like my old model, so it isn't as easy to partially open - a very minor point.

Score 9.0/10+ Dishwasher tells you the length of the wash cycle, so you know how long is left. There is space for a lot of dishes and the noise level is low.It also tells you if the rinse aid and salt is low.
- There are not that many choice of wash cycles.

Very quick fast wash with good results.
Good cleaning.
Reasonable price as an entry level Bosch.
-
Top shelf is not adjustable and a bit tight for side plates which fitted fine in the top shelf of my last Bosch dishwasher with an adjustable rack.
There is no intensive wash option.
It's noisier than other Bosch dishwashers I have had.

Score 9.0/10+ Good points are that you can use the quick programme for the majority of times, and when you need a little extrsa cleaning the ECO Programme is very adequate, also that it is very quiet.

Time delay (1 – 19 hours) – - set your dishwasher to clean overnight and use lower energy costs
12 place settings
