800 Custom Panel, 6/5 cycles, 42 dBA, Flex 3rd Rck, UR Glide, Touch Cntrls, InfoLight - CP

We recently installed two new Bosch dishwasher in our new home. Our previous home had two Bosch dishwashers as well and they were going strong after 13 years. There are a couple of differences, some I like and others not so much. The to tray for utensils is handy and does a good job. The baskets on the lower shelf are too big and top heavy items will fall out. The adjustable top shelf is a winner. Our old units would turn on when tightly closed, we really liked this feature. Having to push the start button every time is a pain. We would also like to see the 'clean' indicator to remain on until the unit is restarted. We are still getting use to the new units and it will probably take some time to get used to all of the features. Thanks

We were remodeling and decided to that our 20 year old Bosch, while still working perfectly, would not make it to the promised land. This model is a considerable upgrade. So quiet, lots of loading options, gets dishes clean. All it has to do is last 20 years. I reused the panel from the old Bosch and installed the it myself. I have two complaints. Bosch does not provide adequate information on the specifications for the panel. If you have a raised panel, the side stiles should be 3" minimum as the fasteners want to be mounted to the stiles. Second, they give a maximum length for the panel, but I had to trim a 1/2 inch off in order to get the door to open all the way. Bottom line, if you are making a panel for this diswasher, be sure to get the template ahead of time (Bosch customer service sent me one when I called) and be prepared to make adjustments to it at installation time. Installation was an adventure. The instructions are not that clear. I do not like that the water connection is at the back of the dishwasher. You make the connection, slide it under the cabinet and hope for the best. When the connection was at the front, sure you had to snake the water line under the unit, but you could easily check it by removing the toe kick. The old unit was hardwired to the electrical. Having this unit plug into GFCI outlet is a big upgrade, that is as long as you have a GFCI outlet where dishwasher is being installed or in your sink base.

Couldn't be happier. The door feels sturdy/heavy, the top silverware rack is great, its quiet, and the red indicator light on the floor is a nice addition so you know when its running and when its done (The unit is so quiet, its the only way to know if the cycle is still running).

This dishwasher is whiper quiet, I can only tell it's running by the red light on the floor. Love the adjustable racks and prongs, I have no problem getting everything thing in. Having a panel ready dishwasher adds to the seamless look of the kitchen cabinets. Get this dishwasher, you won't regret it!

We have been using ONLY Bosch 800 series for many years. Washes great but as importantly, it is so quiet you dont even know it is running! Waited 8 months during pandemic just to have these in our new home. Highly recommend.
