E Rated
A dishwashers energy rating will tell you how energy efficient the model is. Ratings range from A – G, and a more efficient appliance means you’ll save more money on your energy bills. Look out for a washing machine with an energy rating of C or above, these will be some of the most energy efficient models on the market.
12 Place Settings
Dishwasher capacity is measured in place settings. As a rough guide, a place setting consists of a large dinner plate, dessert plate, glass, bowl, teacup, saucer, two knives, forks and spoons. Sizes range from 6 place settings on a small dishwasher, to over 15 on larger models. The more place settings, the more cookware can go in.
Noise Level
Nobody wants the dinnertime conversation disrupted by the noisy rattle of a dishwasher. So, if you have an open-plan kitchen or want to put a programme on at night, look for a model with the quiet mark. This means they’re less noisy than standard dishwashers, so you’ll get to enjoy your evening in peace.
ExtraDry: extra drying option for difficult-to-dry loads.
Activating the Extra Dry option dries your dishes extra-thoroughly by higher temperatures during the rinse cycle and a longer drying phase - with just one push of a button.
Silence programme
The silence programme is the quietest way to run your dishwasher. By activating it, you automatically reduce the noise levels of your dishwasher to the lowest minimum possible. This is achieved by an especially adapted Eco 50 °C programme, a reduced spray pressure and extended cleaning phase.
Take the guesswork out of cleaning.
Different loads of washing require different wash settings. Choosing the incorrect programme not only wastes time, but also water and energy. Bosch automatic programmes automatically regulate the water temperature and rinse time during washing to suit the level of soiling and load volume. This means, with automatic programmes you only use as much water as needed for perfect results. The right wash for every load - all at the touch of a button.
EcoSilence Drive: dishwashing like you've never heard before.
Keeping the house clean can be difficult. Keeping it quiet can sometimes feel impossible. Our dishwashers with EcoSilence drive deliver high-performance cleaning with low noise emission. Equipped with a brushless, energy-saving motor that optimally reduces friction noise, the EcoSilence drive ensures a much smoother, quieter operation. Now you can enjoy a home that is as quiet as it is clean.
We have developed special surface treatments and production processes that are precisely tailored to the materials used in the interior of our dishwashers.
