Dishwasher- Kitchenaid v Bosch

Another vote for Bosch. We have had a 300, a 500 and currently an 800 3 rack series . The space efficiencies are great if you use standard sized plates, but terrible for the oversized ones. The latest ‘crystal dry’ models actually dry plastic OK, even without a rinse aid. I don’t want another chemical on my plates. You have to clean the filter every 1-2 loads if you just scrape your plates.

We put our pots and pans in the dishwasher and the Bosch is the only brand that lets us fit a meals worth of dishes, utensils and cookware in one load. It takes a long time to run, almost 3 hrs. but it is so quiet that you don’t notice it.

We bought a 2nd house with a GE dishwasher with the center rising spray tower and nothing fits. It has an exposed heating element which I hate. Plastic lids have fallen too many times and melted. In addition, the dishwasher had some vile yellow goo stuck on the bottom from congealed fats that were baked multiple times. It took hours to clean it and partial disassembly.

I just ordered a new Bosch to replace the GE.
