Product review (3 stars): Average, disappointed for the rep and the price
We were really excited to upgrade our old dishwasher, and we looked around online quite a bit and then went to an appliance store and got the full schpiel about the Bosch.  We probably didn't ask enough questions or look at enough reviews. I think it is hard to know what you will find a deal-breaker until you have it.  We were told how great it was, how squeaky clean it gets everything without any rinsing, how wonderful it was to not have a heating element, and that the food trap was wonderful for any large pieces of food but that really 99% of all food would be disintegrated, and the only thing you might find is a piece of steak or something.

We had upgraded our kitchen in our last home and felt like we cheaped out a little on the dishwasher when we chose a GE Profile model. It actually did a very nice job, didn't have to rinse too much unless you had peanut butter on a spoon. It was relatively quiet, and had a heated dry cycle and therefore a heating element which I know is not most desirable but it got the dishes clean and dry and didn't take too long. It had a very nice rack layout and silverware tray.  We moved to a new home that had an ancient dishwasher and we thought we would go big and get someone great.

This dishwasher is really disappointing. It doesn't get the dishes very clean, it SMELLS horrible after every wash, it doesn't have a heating element so it uses some kind of condensing dry which leaves the dishes wet forever, and the cycle is TWO hours! Yes it has a quick wash, but if they aren't coming out clean with the full wash why on earth would I use it. Yes, it is quiet. And yes we won't have any melted plastic due to no heating element. But I would trade this overpriced shiny imposter for my GE Profile in a minute. We are planning to return it.
