What customers say
Consumers overwhelmingly praise the Bosch 500 Series Dishwasher for its exceptional cleaning power and near silent operation, making it ideal for modern homes. Users frequently highlight the robust performance on heavily soiled items and appreciate the versatile third rack, which boosts loading capacity. While the condensation drying system sometimes leaves plastics damp, this minor issue is generally overshadowed by the appliance's core strengths. The consensus is that the superior quietness and reliable cleaning justify the premium investment, positioning this model as a high-quality kitchen upgrade.
Know before you buy
Operating at 44 dBA, this dishwasher is exceptionally quiet. It is roughly equivalent to the sound of a library, meaning you can easily hold a conversation or watch television in the same room without distraction.
The 3rd rack provides a dedicated space for flatware and small utensils, freeing up room in the lower baskets for larger items. The RackMatic feature allows you to adjust the height of the middle rack to three different levels, giving you the flexibility to fit taller stemware or bulky pots.
Since the dishwasher is designed for a seamless, built-under look, the control panel is hidden. The InfoLight projects a small red beam onto the floor while the unit is running, so you know exactly when a cycle is in progress without having to open the door.
The PureDry system uses condensation drying, which is highly efficient. For the best results, especially with plastics, it is recommended to use a rinse aid to help water slide off surfaces and improve overall drying performance.
AquaStop is a safety feature that detects leaks in the base of the dishwasher. If a leak is identified, the system automatically shuts off the water supply and pumps out the remaining water to prevent potential damage to your kitchen flooring.
Yes, this model is Home Connect enabled. Once connected to your home Wi-Fi, you can use the app to start cycles, monitor progress, and receive notifications when your dishes are clean from anywhere.
