Product review (4 stars): Very quiet dishwasher for home use, very clean dishes!
We've had this unit on a daily use regimen for about 9 months now, and like it very much. This is a very good, very quiet dishwasher, but we really miss the rinse/hold feature and the heavy soil pots and pans settings of our previous model. Maybe a higher level Bosch has those features. Yes, the interior is a bit smaller than our old one, but fine for a family of 4, washing 1 load a day. The shortest cycle is 78 minutes, much longer than our old unit, but I guess that to become more energy efficient, the cycles likely run cooler, but longer. Makes sense? The dishes always come out clean and spotless, tho. The low rinse-aid warning light is very handy. One minor complaint: We now notice soap bubble residue in the bottom after the load is finished. The dishes are well rinsed, but there's still soapy residue below. Kind of weird, so maybe I'll call Bosch for some input, and post the explanation here if worth noting.
