Better than any other brand of dishwasher, we have ever owned. Not high on features, but excellent washing and very solid.
Love our new Bosch!

We were amazed how clean our old pots were after just 1 washing. This unit seems to have a hard time starting the cycle (It seems to start and stop, then start and stop) maybe that is the way it's supposed to work? It cleans great. We've had no problems with it drying as long as the vent opening on the right side is not blocked by tall cutting boards, etc., and the rinse agent is not empty (the first fill of rinse agent lasted 2 weeks). This unit is much more quiet than the 15 year old KitchenAid it replaced, and has so much more room, we can fit larger items we formerly had to wash by hand. We run this dishwasher 2-3 times a day, and have had excellent results with the combo of detergent and rinse agent brands that were samples given with the washer. The installation instructions had few words, mostly pictures, and we installed it with a 60" braided-steel flexible supply line which made it a snap to put in. The drain line is so long, that we looped it high (per the instructions)under the sink and still had length to spare to reach the disposal (drain). We are happy with the performance of this unit, and feel it is a great compromise in price versus quietness. [...]

Like all Bosch dishwashers it's super quiet and cleans well. Beautiful stainless steel tub. The controls are simple and straightforward. Doesn't belch steam or have an exposed heating elements to melt stuff. Easy to install. Unlike our last Bosch this model does not have a "Rinse and Hold" cycle, though, and I miss that. Otherwise, a perfect dishwasher. Huge in Germany.
