New Bosch 500 dishwasher

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are happy with our new dishwasher. One concern was with the user instructions. They are very vague. Even the on line ones. There is no mention of the red light that comes on when the washer is operating. Red lights to me usually mean trouble.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have heard nothing but good things about Bosch dishwashers from repair people working on other brands we have owned, so it was a shock to us when we got this installed that we can't load as many dishes into it and the racks are absolutely impossible to load dishes and bowls without them laying on each other. This causes clanking noises when washing so the noise level on this is worse than our previous one. Silverware is directed to the top shelf that my wife absolutely hates to use. If we could return this, we would do so without hesitation. It seems to wash ok, but the drying is far worse than other brands we have purchased. I'm giving it 2 stars because it is getting things clean, we just have to hand dry them before we put them away. I honestly don't know how others have rated this so well based on rack layout, noise level and drying ability.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Happy with the quietness. The light indicating when dishwasher is in use is a real plus. The 3rd rack for cooking utensils is a game changer for loading dishwasher. Have already noticed a drop in water bill.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Instructions on line leave a lot to be desired. Controls are tricky to learn without graphics to show what buttons to actually push and what the dispaly should be
