We purchased this dishwasher to replace a Maytag that was failing in getting dishes clean. I used Consumer Reports to narrow down my choices to those with high ratings for washing ability and reliability, Bosch and Frigidare were the 2 highest rated within my price range. We chose the Bosch based on many things including customer reviews on this website. I took my dishes to the store to check that they would fit within the plate tines and they did. I wanted the adjustable rack tines which would allow pots and pans and odd-shaped items. I agree that the interior space is not as large as other brands, but the level of clean and energy savings overrides that negative. Not a big deal that I may have to run it more often. I am still experimenting with the best ways to load it and have not yet been disappointed in the results. I will almost never have 14 place settings to wash at once, our household is 2 adults and 1 dog, we do lots of cooking and baking, and run the dishwasher about once for every 3 or 4 meals. It uses a lot less detergent than my previous dishwasher, only 1 tbsp vs 4, and yet the dishes are clean. I'm very satisified with this dishwasher.
What's great about it: Dishes are clean-clean-clean
What's not so great: Slightly smaller interior capacity
