Questions & Answers

Is the face two tone (perhaps shiny stainless steel and brushed stainless steel) or is it now one tone (perhaps all brushed stainless steel)?

Answer This Question

Hi, thanks for your question. Model SPE53C55UC has a stainless steel with a brushed appearance. The door/face is brushed rather than a mirror polishes shiny stainless steel.

          What is the size of the supply line?
          ByMay 16, 2026
          1 Answer | 
          Answer This Question

          Hi, thanks for your question. The water inlet on model SPE53C55UC uses a 3/8‑inch compression connection (3/8" OD supply line / 3/8" compression nut). This is a compression fitting (not NPT). If your shutoff valve is 1/2" IPS you can use a short adapter or a braided stainless hose that has a 3/8" compression end for the dishwasher and a 1/2" female for the wall valve.

                      Incompetent and dangerous delivery
                      This review is about the disastrous delivery, maybe not the dishwasher. Will have to see how that performs. The first dishwasher they brought had 2 huge dents right in front. Of course, we refused the delivery. But the men had already disconnected and removed our old one. The next night while hand-washing dishes, we were suddenly standing in a puddle. The water had filled up our lower cabinets and down into our finished basement. We couldn't figure out where the water was coming from so we called a plumber. This was Friday night, so we paid weekend rates for him. Turned out the delivery guys had not plugged the hole where the garbage disposal when the took our old dishwasher. Oh, but it gets better (or worse). When the new dishwasher arrived the new delivery guys found that the first ones had not properly capped the electricity when they removed the old one. The picture here shows the result - black burn marks all over the box. This could have caused a house fire!!! I'm just SHOCKED that Home Depot doesn't make sure all their delivery people are qualified. The second crew was wonderful. The first crew has no business touching people's homes.

                        Excellent little dishwasher
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We needed a small dishwasher for a kitchenette in our remodeled downstairs and Bosch made the perfect one. Real buttons, not all touchscreen, and incredibly quiet. Most importantly the dishes get really clean.

                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had my dishwasher installed this past week and it runs great! It is very quiet. I'm glad I was encouraged to buy the Bosch brand.

                            Great Dishwasher
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have a very small kitchen which required a smaller dishwasher. So when we did a refresh on the kitchen we decided to install a dishwasher. We couldn't be happier with this Bosch. It looks great and has great cleaning power. Our glasses have never been cleaner. After years of handwashing they had developed a hazy film on them. One cycle through the dishwasher and they look brand new. Our dinner plates are over sized so we have to move the upper tray occasionally to fit them but it is simple. The unit is also extremely quiet.

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband and I remodeled our kitchen and only had room for an 18 inch dishwasher. This one is so perfect for our needs. Awesome!

                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this unit a few weeks ago to replace an older less expelsive unit from a different manufacturer. I am very happy that I did. The difference in quality is startling. Everything just works better. The remote application on my phone is great too, expecially when you forget to turn the unit on before going to bed. (I never thought I would use it) I liked this unit so much that I updated the rest of my kitchen to make everything sparkle!

                                  The dishwasher’s design is sleek and fits well within my kitchen. Additionally it is fairly quiet which is nice! My biggest complaint is the actual drying function does not work well and after I run it I will then have to leave the door cracked or set out the dishes on a drying rack to finally get them to dry.

                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are not many options for an 18 inch size dishwasher. My previous two machines were different brands but I didn't know how clean my dishes would be after the first wash of this new Bosch machine! We are using maker recommended detergent pods and drying agent. It's super quiet. It took a while for us to configure how to load the dishes. It does not have room for our tallest glassware (even after lowering the rack) so we just aren't using them anymore. We use shorter glasses. The top rack is ideal for cup lids, straws, tiny Tupperware. We love this Dishwasher.

                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This littler dishwasher has been doing a fantastic job of taking care of our daily dishes, pots & pans, and utensils. Since it is just the two of us at home and we have a tiny kitchen, this provides form and functionality in our new kitchen. Still learning how to pack this smaller form factor. Yet, since we moved in here we haven't had a dishwasher and this has been a very welcome additon to our home.
