Bosch SMS63E09

+ Very, very quiet. Nice easy display as dishwasher goes through cycle and countdown in minutes to end of wash. Easy to load. Drawer easy to use, just lay knifes, forks, etc down on the pullout drawer, far better than a cutlery basket.

- Not found any so far apart from maybe a little pricey.

+ looks good

- we chose this appliance because it had the lowest db level.However, it is louder than our previous appliance of the same noise rating. the machine is for 13 place settings, so 13 places have been squeezed into the place of 12 and the layout of the settings make it difficult to load. All in all ,disappointed with the machine.

+ Stylish, well made and has all the features you could possible want, and has we have a large family kitchen that is the hub of the house, it is important to have a machine that runs in the background and you don't even know it is on

- None

+ It looks good and is very quiet. The time display is helpful.

- A little difficult to load doe to knife rack. Would have been better with a half load cycle.

+ This is my third dishwasher and although it is early days yet, so far, I am very pleased! It very quiet, the knife rack on the top is very useful. The main reason we chose it was because the the strong blue handles at the front and the large rollers on the side, which, so far, are a great improvement on the last dishwasher where these had became weak and the top tray kept coming off the runner so, so far, this Bosch has proved to be fairly strong and we hope it will stand constant use.

- It is not that attractive to look at but I chose it for easy cleaning on the outside with no protruding knobs or buttons so it it very easy to clean (not a bad point really) but some might find this a disadvantage.

+ Cleans very well indeed and don't make much noise either

- The Eco program is very long 2 hours and 20 minutes.

+ pleasing to the eye cutlery basket fits anywhere top basket lifts up/down

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Auto cycle program is great, timer starts at over 2 and a half hours, but sensors in the machine check how full the dishwasher is and then reduces the time.....usually on this cycle it runs for 1 hour 20 mins with great results.

- If fully loaded, final rinse struggles to remove all detergent so you get some bits of detergent left on the plates, they do remove easily though.

+ it does load a lot of dishes so we only put it on twice a week!

- can't find the half load cycle - we use the economy cycle instead

+ More efficient and quieter than our old Bosch and more economical

- Not as easy to load and difficult to programme.

+ Good dishwasher. Gets all items clean. Easy to use. Time remaining indicator is really useful. The exterior looks good. I tend to like Bosch brands, and have found my two-year old Bosch washing machine to be very reliable. Have not been able to gauge water and energy consumption as yet (only had the dishwasher a few weeks), but it has good ratings for these aspects. Both trays have foldable parts, making it easier to fit in larger items.

- It would be great if it had a specific 'half-load' button to press, so you could use any of the wash cycles with half the normal load, resulting in reduced water consumption, time, etc. Having said that, the quick option is for half loads, and works well. Items aren't fully dry at the end of the cycle, but only need a quick wipe.

+ Flexible cutlery tray great how it can move anywhere along easily. Looks great. A great machine.

- Plastics still stay wet,

+ The noise level, the look and ease of use.

- The cycle times are quite long.....2.25 hrs...though in realism its on when I go out so I don''t really notice.

+ Looks good - nice and quiet - door feels secure -

- sometimes cups not fully stain free
