I never had a dishwasher prior, so I have nothing to compare this to. It does a great job washing dishes, even on express wash. I even put my good stemware in this machine and it comes out sparkling. Make sure you use recommended rinse aid. Super quiet. Highly recommend.

I haven't had it very long. Unfortunately I found out a few things after having the product installed such as no heated drying. So I have to use an additive to make sure I don't have water spots on everything. Would have been nice to know about that ahead of time.

  Cleans Poorly, Difficult to Load

This is a great product. It cleans the dishes great and is very quiet. The only thing I don't like about it is that the door is hard to open. I purchased it online, so I didn't compare it to other dishwashers; I just know it's a lot harder to open than my old dishwasher.

The Bosch Ascentia dishwashr cleans great! There is no need to rinse your dishes, utensils or flatware bedore loading them into your Bosch dishwasherNoise LevelThe Bosch Ascentia dishwasher is very quiet. Too quiet as sometimes Im not sure ive turned it on and I have to open it to check!

The dishwasher worked fine thru two cycles, then the door kept coming lose and it would stop working. I had to call Bosch and they sent a repairman to look at it. He had to call Bosch and was informed they had problems with this model and would send a part to fix the door.

This dishwasher is VERY quiet and dishes come out sparkling clean. With just two of us in the household, we only need to run the dishwasher every few days. We do rinse the dishes off before loading but don't scrub stuck-on foods. This dishwasher can handle it! I highly recommend this machine.

So far (2 weeks of ownership) we have really enjoyed our Bosch dishwasher. It is very quiet and gets our dishes clean on some of the shorter cycles like "Delicate". This cycle is supposed to run for 1 hour and 20 minutes but when we set our kitchen timer when we start a load of dishes, we're...

We've had our Bosch dishwasher for more than a year. It's quiet and efficient. Even though it's one of the least expensive Bosch dishwashers, everything dish, glass, and utensil comes out clean and spotless even when using shortest (40 minute) wash cycle. The only downside is the dish racks.

I've had this for 2.5 years with no problems. It's quiet and does a good job of washing and drying dishes when used with jetdry and a small amount of powdered dishwasher detergent. The layout of the racks takes a bit of getting used to.... but can usually be adjusted to accommodate a full load.
