    With premium features such as ultra-quiet operation, 4 star energy and water ratings, and load sensing technology, it’s not hard to see why Bosch is a world leader in dishwashers.

    Bosch has designed their Serie 4 dishwashers for the average family. It’s a design that focuses on solving the little problems that come up with daily use. You'll love the speedwash program that's designed to cut wash time by 50% while delivering the same results.

    The inbuilt EcoSilence Drive offers you brushless performance. Designed for quiet operation and longevity, the EcoSilence Drive in this dishwasher is a must if you’re looking for reliability. Designed to be water efficient, the inbuilt aqua sensor cleverly adjusts water usage based on how dirty your dishes are, saving you money on your water bill.
    Heat Exchanger

    The heat exchanger inside this dishwasher recycles heat generated from the main wash cycle for the rinse and dry cycle. Not only does this save energy (saving you money) it also offers you a unique, fully-enclosed drying system that hygienically traps the air in the dishwasher to avoid outside bacteria soiling your freshly cleaned dishes.

    Speed Wash

    When you need to clean a load of dishes in a rush, Bosch’s SpeedPerfect wash option allows you to wash up to 50% quicker than usual. Perfect for when you’re short on time, and in need of clean dishes.

    Aqua Sensor

    Not all dirty dishes are the same, sometimes your dishwasher will only need to clean lightly soiled dishes, and in that situation, less water is required to get the same wash. The Aqua sensor in this dishwasher uses a light sensor to detect how dirty the water in your dishwasher is, and whether or not your dishes need some extra love to get them tip-top.

    Load Sensing

    Whether you’re washing a large load or a small load, you’ll be happy to know that this dishwasher will cleverly optimise the amount of water used based on your wash size. Good for the environment, good for your water bill.

    So disappointing
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This constantly has issues with filters and pumping since we bought it . E24 has become a regular occorance even when we rinse everything first. temperamental and frustrating. Would never buy a Bosch dishwasher again.

    Fantastic Machine
    I've had a Bosch before and upgraded to this model. I really like the flexibility of where the basket can be placed in the lower draw. It is quiet as a mouse and my dishes are sparkling clean!
