[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently upgraded to the Bosch 500 Series, and it has honestly been a game-changer for my kitchen routine. The first thing I noticed is just how incredibly quiet it is; at 44 decibels, I can barely tell it’s running unless I look for the little red light it shines on the floor. It’s a huge relief to be able to start a load and still enjoy a movie or a conversation in the same room without that constant background hum. The build quality feels premium and sturdy, and the sleek stainless steel look blends perfectly with my other appliances. What really sold me, though, is the AutoAir feature. Having the door pop open automatically at the end of the cycle seemed like a small detail at first, but it makes a massive difference in drying. I used to hate opening the dishwasher to find puddles on top of my plastic containers, but this system lets the steam out and helps everything dry naturally and thoroughly. It feels much more efficient than those old-school heating elements that can sometimes warp thinner plastics. The interior layout is also surprisingly flexible. The third rack is perfect for silverware and larger cooking utensils, which opens up a ton of room in the lower sections for bulky pots and plates. I also love that I can adjust the height of the middle rack with a quick click to fit taller glasses or odd-sized platters. It’s one of those rare purchases where you feel like you’re getting exactly what you paid for—a reliable, high-performing machine that just works without any extra fuss.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second Bosch dishwasher. The first one lasted almost 20 years. The new one is much better. A 500 series with adjustable racks. It also has the third rack which is excellent for kitchen utensils. I love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our second purchase of a Bosch dishwasher: cleans and dries beautifully, amazingly quiet compared to the builder-grade model installed just before we bought our house. The air dry feature where the door automatically pops open upon finishing is the best, as we often run the dishwasher late in the evening and it finishes after we go to bed. The black matte finish is classy.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so glad I bought a Bosch. We had a ge profile that was only 7 yrs old and I replaced every part at least 2x. It was sooooo easy to install I did it myself. Being able to put plastics anywhere is amazing. It runs quiet, cleans fast even on the heavy cycle. Only complaint is I wish the silverware lower rack was bigger. The one on top comes in handy for storage lids, Starbucks tumbler lids, and spatulas so I mostly use the lower one for silverware. Best purchase ever!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far this has done what we want without issue. Only complaints I have are pint glasses seem to not want to stand up wherever I put them in the washer, you need a developer's account to be able to add this to HomeAssistant and the washer does not alwasy retain the setting to pop open to help air dry at the end of the cycle, so I need to keep an eye out for that when I go to start it. Beyond that, self install was not bad, it runs quiet (other than when a glass or whatever gets knocked over mid wash) and with the pop-open when done feature actually dries everything well (except when a container ends up upside down). Still getting used to the smaller utensel basket but the 3rd rack is supposed to help with that I guess.
