Bosch Evolution 500 Series 24" Stainless Steel Undercounter Dishwasher, Model SHE45M05SS

Key Features:

Silence

  • Two-Pump Motor System
    By using two small pumps to individually wash and drain instead of a single large one, vibration and noise are dramatically reduced. Smaller parts and a more contained motion contribute an important part to our sound-reduction system, leaving you amazed that the dishwasher is even on
  • Suspension Motor
    The more isolated a motor is, the less its vibrations can be transferred. So we’ve suspended our two-pump motor to help absorb and minimize any vibration and noise to the housing, as it is absorbed by rubber hammocks, letting you enjoy your time in the kitchen whether the dishwasher is running or not
  • Solid Molded Base
    Preventing noise and leaks are what makes a good dishwasher a great one. That’s why we’re the only U.S. manufacturer to give all of our dishwashers a solid molded base. The single-piece base effectively contains sound, and prevents leaks by automatically shutting down if water is detected in the base
  • Insulation
    Noise is also buried beneath the three layers of insulation inside our near-silent dishwashers. Metal, cotton fiber and heavy-duty bitumen sheets capture and dampen sound to create a decibel level no louder than raindrops. (Insulation package varies by model.)

Efficiency

  • ECOSENSE™
    An advanced sensor system determines the soil level in the wash water and automatically deletes fresh water fills if they’re not needed, saving you time and money while cutting energy usage by 20%
  • Flow Through Water Heater
    In conventional dishwashers, water falls randomly onto an exposed heating element. And since not all the water touches the heating element, this results in slower and less energy-efficient heating. Bosch dishwashers, on the other hand, channel 100% of the water through tighter coils in a confined heating chamber, which heats the water quickly and efficiently up to 161 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Condensation Drying
    Built with a solid stainless steel tub, Bosch dishwashers utilize condensation drying to save you money on your energy bills. Condensation drying works by heating the dishes with hot water from the final rinse. Moisture condenses on the cool stainless steel tub and is drained, so your clean dishes dry without an energy-wasting active drying element
  • Optional Half Load Wash
    Use this option when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill half or less of the dishwasher’s capacity on both the top and bottom racks. It dramatically reduces energy and water consumption, and can be used with the Power Scrub Plus, Regular and Auto Wash cycles
  • ENERGY STAR® Qualified
    Proving once again that Bosch is committed to efficiency, all of our dishwashers are ENERGY STAR® qualified
  • NSF Certified Units and Cycles

Safety

  • AQUASTOP® Leak Protection
    Bosch is the only U.S. manufacturer to offer a high-tech leak protection system like AQUASTOP® in their whole line of dishwashers. A precisely engineered tub and sensor system detects leaks in the solid molded base of the dishwasher, shuts down operation and automatically pumps out water before contact with floors. This eliminates the risk of costly water and mold damage
  • PERFECTDOOR™ with AUTOCLOSE™
    Falling dishwasher doors are a thing of the past. Bosch specially engineered PERFECTDOOR™ to stay in a fixed position when it is open more than 10 degrees. This increases safety by eliminating the possibility of the door dropping open or springing closed suddenly
  • No Exposed Heating Element
    Because our Flow Through Water Heater is not located in the tub and has no exposed heating element, it prevents plastic items on the bottom rack from melting. It has the added benefit of protecting you from accidental burns during unloading

Performance

  • QUICKWASH
    Our fastest cycle yet, this feature allows you to wash six place settings in just 30 minutes. It’s perfect for times when you need to wash a small load quickly

Automation

  • OPTIDRY®
    Multiple sensors automatically detect the presence of a rinse agent and measure its level in the dispenser, automatically adjusting the final temperature and wash cycle for spotless drying results with each wash
  • Optional Delay Start
    With a nineteen or twenty-four hour timer, Bosch dishwashers work on your schedule. Program them to start once guests leave or after you’ve drifted off to sleep. Wait until you’re out of the house, or run it in off-peak evening hours for even greater savings on your energy bill

Convenience

  • Extra Capacity
    More capacity means more convenience. So Bosch dishwashers have extra-large interior space, allowing you to fit 14 place settings rather than the industry standard of 12
  • RACKMATIC®
    To accommodate large or oddly shaped dishes, RACKMATIC® allows you to raise or lower the premium upper rack at the touch of a lever (even when full), giving you up to 14" of space on the bottom or 10" on top
  • Stainless Steel TALLTUB
    The specially engineered Bosch TALLTUB is not only space efficient, but energy efficient. Allowing up to an incredible 22" of usable space when you remove the top rack, its high-quality stainless steel construction retains heat better than plastic tubs, which helps dry dishes faster and more efficiently

So far so good.
Reviewed by Half Man / Half Amazing (Avid Cook) from Evanston IL. on Aug 24, 2009
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I had this for a few months and so far I like it. The one thing I had to get used to was loading the top rack. It's smaller depth wise than my last GE dishwasher, but once you figure out how to position everything it's great. The top rack has more room height wise than the GE so you can actually place taller things in the rack. Some reviews mention a smell when left unused for a while. I was on vacation for a week and encountered no such problems when I came back. One more thing. This washer is very quiet. You can run it whenever you want. I use to delay my GE to run at night because of the noise.

This is by far the best dishwasher I have owned! (my 4th brand). It does seem a tad smaller than others I have owned, but it cleans so well, I don't mind. I'm still working on the most efficient loading, which you would expect with a new product.

Verified Reviewer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
My first experience with the Bosch SHE45M05SS dishwasher was when we did a kitchen remodel approximately one year ago. I was impressed with the quality of the Bosch design and construction. The machine was easy to install and functioned perfectly. We sold that home and one of the first things I did when we moved into our new place was to order and install the same machine. I could not be more satisfied with this dishwasher. [...]

My 15 year old Machine was better.
Reviewed by RK (Casual Cook) from Chicago Burbs on Oct 15, 2008
Verified Reviewer
BOTTOM LINE No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
I read the reviews before I bought this and cant believe its the same machine. Mine doesnt dry well at all. Its 2 hours to wash and they say you need to unload the dishwasher right after its done. The interior smells bad. If you put in dishes for a few days straight to fill the machine they will get mold. I have had to wash some loads more than once. Forks still have stuff on them as well as bowls or other dishes.
Pros: Multiple Settings, Quiet, Energy Efficient
Cons: Not Powerful Enough, Long Cycle, Doesn't Clean Thoroughly

Best dishwasher ever!
Reviewed by ldavidal (Avid Cook) from Riverside, CA on May 19, 2008
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Easy to install. We have had GE, Kitchenaide, and Maytag dishwashers. This dishwasher cleans best of all. Though not the quietest Bosch, it can barely be heard, except when draining and the noise heard is from the sink. Cleaning power is excellent. Well worth the cost compared to other brands. Lacks a "rinse and hold" on this model, but the low energy usage makes this issue mute - just go ahead and wash on the half load cycle.

Cons: Long Cycle

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
We have had this dishwasher for 2 months and it is working great. Very quiet and easy to load. Love that I can move the cutlery basket around and even split it in half to make room for larger items. Unfortunately had to replace a dishwasher that was only 5 years old and gave us multiple problems. We are hoping this one lasts much longer.

Ridiculously quiet compared to my old Kitchenaid. The only drawback to this dishwasher is that the cycles are extremely long. It's about 2 hours start to finish. I would recommend this unit to anyone.
