Such an amazing video! Thank you for this review. It was super helpful as a design enthusiast working on our first build. I especially appreciated the detail and the comparison between Miele.

I love the level of detail in this video!

Excellent review. Was interested and now I will go with this model Bosch.

Thanks for pointing out that new fangled, spinny thing in the bottom of the dishwasher!! Great video with good looks at controls and unique features of the benchmark series. And my wife and I laughed so hard at the end of this long video... "not wanting to ramble on." 😂

Just a few comments: We bought a much cheaper stainless steel, series 2 years ago; maybe a 300, Silence Plus 50 dBA, which has most of the same settings as more expensive models, but just has two small upper racks on the third level. I think we paid about $500 for it, discounted from Home Depot. We have to use a rinse aid, which lasts about 3 weeks. Most of the time, we don’t notice it running, but we have to remove and clean the filter about every 3 weeks with daily use. Dishes and glass casseroles come out usually spotless. The stainless steel finish has the plastic coating you described on more expensive models. Caution: There’s some guy on YouTube who shows how to remove the coating! Don’t! If I bought a Benchmark model, I would opt for an extended warranty because of complexity.

Thank you, great information....especially after a power surge ruined the control panel and strip of my 20+yr old GE Profile this past weekend....Repairs will cost about 50% of a new dishwasher. Might be time to acquire a quiet and energy efficient replacement whether Bosch or Miele.

Hey Quick question.

This unit says it has Timelight on the ground yet I got one and I dont see where to turn this on. It states it on their website that it does include it. Also didnt see you put it in the video, curious as to if your unit has this.

This is a very thorough and helpful video since we may be looking to replace our 11-year-old Bosch SHE9ER55UC. Our biggest disappointment with our Bosch dishwasher (and cooktop) is the labeling of the buttons (or knobs on our Bosch cooktop) - neither are etched into the metal in any way and they wear away/disappear over time from use. So my obvious question is did Bosch improve on this concern in the past 11 years?

A very well thought out and presented video, thank-you! Can you tell me what that triangle in the top right hand corner does please?

[Turdafonzanoon]

Any recommendations for a heavy duty dishwasher that will last many years with basic maintenance that does not have any fancy smart features? I don’t want 20 settings and internet connectivity. I just want something well built with a few basic settings. Something like whatever would have been top of the line back in the 90s.

I can't figure out how to select the different wash features on the 800 series😊! Please help

[sarahmangone]

How long does the Auto setting run for? I love the filter option, how often if ever does it need replacing?

[TheRuralMinnesotaGuy]

Thanks! I am replacing a 18 year old Bosch, it still works, but exterior parts are cracking and the front panel is broke and I can't replace the part. I have put my finger inside and push down in the button to turn it on and off. Like I said, it still works, but time to replace it and it went way beyond it's life expectancy and it looks like this model is the one to get!

[Loreality]

Nice video! I'd assume RackMatic has been around for 20 years, maybe even since the 90s. In Europe, and probably elsewhere in the world, you only get a choice between cutlery basket or drawer. The design of the racks seems to fairly unique to North America, anyway. Now the real question is: where does the footage of the lower spray arm in action come from?

[YvetteRivera-sn]

I have the same one and it washes great. Love it.

[kimeepardos]

Very practical and informative video that was well presented. Is there an option or is there an adjustment for washing just the upper or lower racks?

[gnewman]

The music at the beginning is obnoxious (just saying) and for content, you might want to consider adding maintenance videos (or shorts) as well as older model how to ?

[mrtodd]

The spray arm on the 800 series works differently than most spray arms because the large arm is motorized and parks the spinner in a quadrant for a certain amount of time before moving it to another quadrant. I believe that the app allows the user to customize how this works.

[argeliamoran]

I can't afford it 😢 but maybe one day I'll need to know all this information

[kimeepardos]

The Home Connect is a feature I’d like to have more info and instructions for.
