This is my 3rd Bosch dishwasher (due to different homes); it is so quiet, you don't even know it's running! I love the 3rd top tray for silverware; it leaves more room at the lowest level for pots and pans. If you have hard water, get this model to add special salt to soften the water. I'm very fussy about no spots on my wine glasses and the salt dispenser does the trick. I put Baccarat glasses, plus fine china with gold rims in my Bosch with absolutely NO problems.  I wouldn't have any other dishwasher than a Bosch!
