Bosch Evolution 800 Series 24" Stainless Steel Undercounter Dishwasher, Model SHE68M05SS


Helpful Downloads For The SHE68M05SS:

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%
  • ECOOPTION™
    This cutting-edge feature adjusts water temperature and cycle length for optimal efficiency, allowing you to reduce energy usage by up to 25% with just the push of a button
  • 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

  • Auto Super Wash
    Simply select the Auto Super Wash program, and the dishwasher analyzes the soil level of your dishes and adjusts the wash temperature to between 130 and 150 degrees. Analyzing the clarity of the wash water, the sensor system also determines whether or not a second fresh water cycle is needed, ensuring your dishes get clean while avoiding unnecessary refills to conserve water
  • Auto Delicate Wash
    This automated wash setting is for use with your fragile china, allowing you to get it perfectly clean without the hassle of hand washing, or the worry of damaging it in the dishwasher. This setting is delicate on your dishes, keeping them in perfect condition, and ready for your next special occasion
  • 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
  • Variable Spray Pressure
    This feature adjusts water pressure based on the cycle you select. Lower, gentler pressure is used for "Delicate" or "Glass Care" cycles, while high pressure is used for modes such as "Power Scrub Plus", "Auto Super Wash" and "Extreme 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
  • Extra Tall Item Sprinkler
    Hand washing large items becomes a thing of the past thanks to this handy innovation. Simply remove the top rack and place your serving platters, baking trays, hood filters and refrigerator shelves that are up to 22" high in the bottom rack. Start the machine, and the sprinkler evenly distributes water across every large item, for sparkling-clean results every time
  • 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
  • Platinum Premium Racks
    High-quality racks are coated with platinum nylon to protect your delicate dishware. And for optimal space efficiency, eight rows of flip-down tines allow for customized layout and a 25% larger silverware basket holds up to 6 place settings

Very quiet and does the job well
Reviewed by Tracey (Avid Cook) from Omaha, NE on Jul 17, 2009
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I like this dishwasher for the quietness, ease of operation and clean design. It cleans all types of dishes and pans well with few exceptions on the auto wash cycle. I've only used the wash plus a few times for more heavily soiled pans. The only complaint I have is that the tines in the upper rack do not hold bowls securely. When I push the rack in after I load the dishes, no matter how gently, the bowls fall out of position and scatter. Placing a coffee mug in front of the front bowl helps keep them secure. The Maytag dishwasher I had before didn't have this problem.
Pros: Attractive Design, Cleans Well, Quiet, Simple Controls, Energy Efficient
Cons: Bowls don't load securely
Best Uses: General Purpose

Better than GE Eterna
Reviewed by sarotter (Avid Cook) from Chicago, IL on Nov 13, 2008

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Very quiet, hardly know it's running. It does clean better than the the GE that can with the house we bought, however, it still leaves a ring of dirt around some glasses and dried on food on some of the silverware. Overall, it is MUCH better than the GE, which we would literally have to wash everything by hand after the cycle was over.

Couldn't be more pleased!
Reviewed by Rebecca Loves Rutabagas (Gourmet Cook) from Charlotte, NC on Sep 04, 2008
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
My kitchen has a vaulted 20' ceiling that is very open to the rest of the house. Sound bounces off all the hard surfaces of appliances, floors, and countertops and is amplified throughout the house, so we chose this dishwasher primarily for silence -- and we couldn't be more pleased. All we hear is a trickle of water when the machine is filling or draining. I love the Rinse & Hold feature and the energy saving features of the machine, like Auto Wash which senses how clean the rinse water is to determine whether a second rinse is really necessary. I'm also delighted with how well all my stuff fits in this very adaptable, extremely well designed machine. In our old GE dishwasher my oversize dinner plates barely fit and always knocked into each other, resulting in chipped plates, and I often had quite a few "leftover" things to wash by hand after cramming that GE to capacity. But the Bosch fits EVERYTHING, and it's really easy to move the top rack up or down to fit different loads, even to take the top rack out altogether for really big things. No more washing my giant lobster pot by hand -- yahoo!! Not only does the dishwasher perform perfectly and nearly soundlessly, but it looks fantastic installed in the kitchen as well. I only wish we'd done this sooner. No regrets; life is too short to fight with a lousy dishwasher when a beautiful Bosch is right around the corner.

Exceeds Considerable Expectations
Reviewed by ABQCLEVE (Gourmet Cook) from Albuquerque, NM on Dec 19, 2007
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
In a word, this is a superb product. My wife and I researched options very thoroughly, including observing a similar Bosch (repeatedly: they insist on demo-ing every time we visit!) at a friends. When the new Bosch arrived, I had just uninstalled my 1992 Maytagserviceable but extremely loudand having the two units side-by-side in my back patio underscored what I got for the significantly greater cost. The Maytag, with its light blanket of insulation, exposed motor, and other exposed trappings looked, well, utilitarian. The Bosch, with its dense envelope of thick batting, solid, enclosed foundation (heavy gauge plastic and metal) and elegant design is a work of art. Instructions for installation and operation are very good. Be prepared to supply your own water (I chose a shielded, flood-safe cable) and electricity. Be prepared also for the solid profile, which may cause installation challenges. Although the Bosch has standard dimensions, there are no extra, unused spaces within those dimensions that you can use, as I did with the old unit, to wiggle the machine over or around obstacles, like floor tiling or plumbing fixtures. I had to remove tiles to squeeze the Bosch in at my old house because the tiles had been added later and because the Maytag had extra open space around the feet I could use to avoid things. Electrical and water service points are very thoughtfully designed and easily accessible, though the toe plate cover requires a tricky maneuver to fit, so beware! Took me about 3-4 hours to installIm reasonably handybut that was largely because I discovered the service was not properly grounded (good thing to discover!) and I chose to re-do my water supply and filter under the sink. The unit looks great in place. But its operation is what floored me. I have no idea how testers managed to record 46db, the specifications on this unit. I cannot hear it when its running, except when waters running through the air gap and a little bit of motor noise at the end of a pump cycle. Filling and washing are absolutely silent! No more closed captioning on the TV when were running the dishes! Whoo-hoo!!! This unit has the Eco features that detect water cleanliness and temp and use water very intelligently. I live in Albuquerque, so thats something were very conscientious about. Its normal Auto-Wash cycle runs about two hours, which is longer than the similar cycle in the Maytag, but there are options that run as quickly as 12 hour. Dishes have been spotless in the two weeks since I installed. End-of-cycle beep can be adjusted or turned off easily. Loading is a little different than the Maytag, but much more flexible. The unit uses filtering so thats something we have to watch that wasnt the case with the Maytag, but its not a pain at all. The only thing I wish is that the silverware basket might be a little taller: it supports silverware, but doesnt confine items as effectively as the Maytag. Hasnt been a problem so far, but I can imagine something banging on a plate accidentally with the new setup. All in all, this is one of the finest appliances Ive ever owned. Im completely pleased with this unit.

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Had this product for three weeks and don't have anything bad to say about it. Would like to have seen the fittings to get out of the water inlet sent with the machine. Had to take an extra trip to the hardware store during install. It was on the instructions but who reads them. The machine is as quiet as advertised. There is a thermometor on the front of the machine that that tells you what the temp inside is so that when it stops you don't open it up to hot steam. Though a little expensive this machine has performed above my expectations. Time will tell on durability
