"This is, overall, an excellent machine with some very useful features. In addition to standard programmes, it offers VarioSpeed, which can cut the duration of a standard wash considerably without having to resort to a less-effective quick wash. Mind you, the Quick Wash is actually pretty good and only takes about 25 minutes. The Extra Dry setting is really handy for plastics, which tended to come out of our old machine heavily beaded; this doesn't manage 100% drying on plastic but is certainly a vast improvement.
It runs very quietly indeed and was very straightforward to install; an hour after it arrived it was up and running.
It's a little deeper ( a couple of cm) front to back than some slimline machines, and the selector knob - unlike the one on our last machine - doesn't retract, so be careful where you position it in relation to cupboard doors etc.
Other than that (and a slightly fiddly knife tray in the top drawer), I have no hesitation in recommending it so far - and our last Bosch lasted us 13 years..."

"This is the first dishwasher I’ve ever owned so I can’t compare with anything else but it’s ideal for our needs. There are only 2 in our household and this is ideal. The Eco mode seems to be the one we use most often but we use the extra dry mode as the pans don’t seem to be as dry as I’d like otherwise. As it’s slimline it fits into the corner and doesn’t take up to much room. As we get more used to it we’ll probably use the other features as well, like the delayed start. It’s very quiet which really surprised us and all in all it’s a great little machine."

"I noticed the difference to my old Beko immediately, as the cleaning action is so much better. Quiet, too. The only thing missing and hence 4 and not 5 stars, is a timer showing you when the current programme - it's the onky thing I miss from the old Beko."

"Whilst not the top of the range Bosch dishwasher this still exceeded my expectations. It really is extremely quiet to run. Previous dishwashers have always left the kids plastic plates and bowls wet. They come out bone dry with this dishwasher, and that’s without activating the extra dry function! When loading up everything seems to fit better than other dishwashers, I don’t often have to fight to get the full load in. The knife tray at the top is really handy. Not quite a full cutlery tray like on the top of the range model but still very useful. I thought a dishwasher was a dishwasher but can honestly say that this was worth the extra cost compared to other males that I’ve had previously.
Even the dishwasher tablet has its place - the door opens mid cycle and it drops into a tray on the top basket rather than dropping to the floor of the machine.

"I was struggling a dishwasher that fit into a specific space and Bosh slimline dishwasher is exactly what i needed. It fit to perfection and looks great in that space too.Super happy with it and i cant wait to put it to full use soon, when we move into our new house completely."
