We needed to replace our Asko dishwasher with an integrated from panel that matched our cabinets. We selected this Bosch model on the advice of the appliance store. In addition to needing a dishwasher with integrated panel, we wanted an upper level silverware tray and something that was quiet. We thought that it was odd that the unit projects a red dot on the floor when running ; at least until we ran it the first time. This thing is silent, you really have no idea it is running. Works great, does everything we wanted
