Disappointed
Bought this unit a couple of years ago and was very happy with the results: washes well and is very quiet until it died recently. Control panel displays an error "Fault No communication' and wont allow us to access the machine. Called out a service person who since has advised that parts are around $680 to fix the control panel (?) and there is no guarantee that this will fix the problem. Very disappointing after we consciously chose what we thought was a reputable brand and paid a premium for the unit.

Best dishwasher I have had!!
Very happy with this purchase, very quiet, easy to use, plenty of room with top cutlery draw and additional basket as well. Loved the easy height adjustable shelves and racking. Worth going for the top of the line definitely can see the quality between the cheaper Bosch, in the past we would always just get the cheapest one. Happy we didn’t this time. Highly recommended.

Amazing dishwasher! I can't live without it
Just built a new house and was looking around for a while for good quality appliances. Really happy with this purchase I have been using this dishwasher for three months now and can't believe how quiet it is and how well it cleans and dries my dishes. I can't live without it!! The design is smooth and sleek and looks great in my kitchen.

Love my new dishwasher
This is the best dishwasher I have ever owned. Love how quiet it is and everything comes out sparkling clean.
Lots of space to pack everything with height adjustable trays and cutlery draw which saves room in the dishwasher
Very easy to use and looks great in our kitchen.
Would definitely recommend you won’t be disappointed.
Worth every penny

Cleans perfectly, very quiet
This is one of the high end dishwashers from Bosch, so you know it's going to be a very good model.
One of the main selling points would be how quiet it is, i was surprised at how much quieter it was than the one i replaced.
It has plenty of options for washing, and I've had no issues with the way it cleans.
The 2 main drawers inside are quite configurable for whatever you need to put in it, and it has the 3rd cutlery drawer.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this model.

Should have purchased this years ago.
A gift from our children for Christmas 2016 - and how wonderful it is. It is quiet and easy to operate. I've noticed that it doesn't clean plates or dishes well that have had egg cooked in them via the mwo. I always use Finish cleaning products and hang a deodoriser in it. Overall, I am extremely happy.

Great Product
As as good as advertised.cleans everything we throw at it. The drying ensures no water marks and it is very quiet. There is one thing though,when the washing and drying is complete it makes a loud beeping noise. Not sure if we can turn this off. The problem with this noise is we cannot put the washer on at off peak times as the noise wakes us up on completion. If anyone could advise us how to turn it off that would be great.

Very reliable
We have owned this for a couple of years now, with a piggy family of 4 we have really put it through its paces. We never rinse off plates, we never stack it correctly and we have a natural ability to be able to cram everything but the kitchen sink in. And by the end of each cycle our dishes are brand new again.

Cleans great but the dry function is pretty woeful
Super quiet, looks gorgeous, cleans great but can't seem to get it to dry properly. We now have it set to extra dry for every wash but unfortunately it's made no difference. Dry function is completely useless on plastic containers especially - drops of water all over them when the cycle is done.
I'm old school and prefer the cutlery container on the bottom rack of the machine, which this doesn't come with. That bit is my fault... I'll know for next time.

le. This obviously isn't ideal if we put it on before bed or before going out. Thing is, we had a Bosch at our last place for 9 years and loved it. Ironically it did a much better job at drying than the fancy new expensive one. Looks like either this will be our last Bosch dishwasher or we'll stick to older basic models.Similar opinion?

Excellent product
We had a Samsung dishwasher before but we moved house with an old dishwasher so decided to buy a new one.
We use it just about everyday and as expected from a Made in Germany product it is very good. Ultra quiet with spot clean finish every time.
The only minor criticisms are that the child lock looks a bit silly at the top and the rather large hose fitting which may require some handyman work depending on your kitchen.

You wouldn't regret getting this
Bought it for AUD$1399 from Harvey Norman and as far as I know it is the 2nd most expensive dishwasher available at the store. There's a reason for this price, highly water and energy efficient, it has the ability to measure the water required according to the weight of the dishes. Also there's a separate rack for cutlery which maximizes it's space efficiency!
One thing though, sometimes the dishwasher powerball will get stuck within dishes for some reason and remain undissolved after the washing completes. (please explain it Bosch).

Fantastic…..BUT!
Never owned a DW before now and we went all out and got the Series 8.
8 months now and we still smile, have a chuckle and bang a high 5 out after taking 5 minutes
to load all the dishes and close the door…."Dishes done woop"
Experimenting with tablets from homebrand to expensive Finish ones.
Have noticed some issues with drying and still trying to work out why.
My only gripe is the prongs are a bit tight and too close together for loading breakfast bowls.
Deepish bowls basically have to lay flat therefore take up too much realestate!
Top cutlery tray is GREAT.
Not sure about the way the Bosch keeps water in the bottom that can get a bit smelly, but ours is used daily so it's not too much of an issue.

I Love my dish washer.
This would have to be the best product I have ever purchased for myself. It washes well on a low time.It dries well. I don't know it is going half the time as it is so quiet. I find it is a need in my house not a want. I just set it and forget it until I have to unpack it.

Great dishwasher
Very quiet dishwasher. Everything comes out sparkling even with cheaper dishwasher tablets. Dishes can be put away straight after cycle finishes, occasionally small amount of water residue in cups on top rack but that's to be expected. Timer is a great function. Overall, the best dishwasher I've ever owned with cleanest dishes by far.

Silent.
Recently had to replace our old dishwasher and this was our first choice. Super quiet while it is operating & it has plenty of space for everything.
My only criticism that there isn't a large number of options such as "glass cycle" or "heavy duty" but apparently it senses all that anyway.

Best dishwasher I have owned
This dishwasher is over 2 yo, so decided it has deserved a review, after owning approx 5 dishlex dishwashers and deciding they are no longer good quality i decided to go European. Yes expensive. Bought Bosch, made in Germany, sms88t101a.
It was well worth the money. The best feature, and there are many, is the supersilence. I can have the dishwasher on and sitting with friends having coffee right next to the dishwasher.

Love it
Cleans well as long as we use good tablets. Pretty quiet
Only issue we have is it doesn't always empty all the water which seems to be because we have to use extention piping to reach the drain, easily fixed by starting cycle again and switching off when empty. Happy with product

Questions & Answers
Markasked
I've just bought one of these dishwashers and have run a Quick 45C and a normal 45C wash. Both left the dishes inside very wet both on plastics and crockery. Any suggestions on which cycles are better at drying or which set up settings are best to maximise the drying at the end of a cycle??
