I really like my new Bosch dishwasher because it's better than our last GE one and it's quiet. I've only had it for a month, and have not ran too many cycles. I used to pre-wash my dishes but don't have to with the Bosch. The only thing I haven't liked is that it doesn't smell too good after unloading, and I think it's because (1) it's new, (2) the dishes are not all the way dry (user error), or (3) water sits at the bottom just from the semi-dry dishes after unloading. I still need to read the user manual and I'm sure that will go away.
