[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second Bosch dishwasher. It not only has the finest performance but also the quietest performance. I especially love the flexible third rack. The ultimate dry with the CrystalDry is the crowning jewel of this fabulous dishwasher.

When lower rack was loaded with dishes, it came off the tracks and dropped into the bottom of the tub. Manufacturing defect with the tray; wheels too narrow. Abt replaced the lower tray with a new one and it works satisfactorly, however the overall design of the lower tray is not as good as that our older Bosch 800 bought in 2011, nor is the design of the glasses and silveware racks. You shoud bring back to older layouts. Also doesn't seem to clean as well, but we will live with it for now. Surprised with all this that Consumer Reports rated it so highly. Tried to upload a photo but it didn't work here.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I lve this dishwasher. It is tatally flexible in the type of items that can be washed and cleaned, with a cycle to fit any need. It is also the most quiet dishwasher I have ever had, since this is one of two I own. I also like the fact it is wireless and I can be sitting working when I am informed the machine has finished. So much flexibility, so much choice. Bosch is the best!
This DW is almost perfect. It cleans very well and the various cleaning options are most welcomed. Using the app also makes this a great DW. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that the racks lack flexibility in how to maneuver them, and the instructions are lacking on how best to load the DW.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a Bosch 500 series dishwasher for years, which was great. So great, I didn't realize how great it was. So, when I moved into couple of new homes this year that had other dishwashers in them ... I was really surprised at how frustrating using the others were: difficulty in loading, dishes not coming out clean, wine glasses not sparkling, and most of all... not having the third rack.
So I bought a new one - the Bosch 800 series. And it's a joy. Everything just works. Wine glasses fit, and come out clean, utinsils fit on the top rack, everything comes out clean.
There are quirks. The small silverware caddy was new. It is OK though. The fact that I have to use the app to perform a rinse-only, or a half-load wash is frustrating. Plus the app was a pain to load (because of my mesh WiFi network).
But otherwise, it's exactly what I wanted and I'm glad I have one again.
