Customer Reviews for Bosch 300 Series 24 in. Black Front Control Tall Tub Dishwasher with Stainless Steel Tub and 3rd Rack, 44dBA

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I believe most dishwashers can do an okay job but Bosch is so quiet that I don't know is running. My dishes are always cleaned well. Also maintenance is quick and easy with appropriate notifications It was replaced during the pandemic and still works wonderfully.

Overall it does a great job of cleaning as long as you don’t overload the racks. It hasn’t been drying as well as I anticipated. I’m going to experiment with various drying additives, because the supplemental JetDry is leaving dishes soaked.

Doesn't clean smears (e.g. avocado) from plates/sllverware or remove lip marks from glasses. All need wiping after wash cycle. Unit doesn't dry after wash cycle, newly loaded items mold because the interior is still wet, seal is too tight to let interior dry out. Filter is filthy after cycle; last water cycle that runs through dishes also runs through the filter, final rinse isn't any cleaner than the filter and needs to be washed after every cycle. Display panel blinks unless unit is off.

So disappointed in this dishwasher. It is either terrible at drying or was not installed correctly by Home Depot. Even when you select “Extra Dry” everything is covered in water after you run it. Then if left closed the dishes will stay wet for days.

Though it doesn't have any place to use detergent for the pre-wash cycle, like my previous dishwasher, I just add a bit of dishwasher powder to the bottom of the door before closing it, as recommended by an appliance fellow I watched online. The cycles are all fairly quiet and the dishes turn out squeaky clean, even with moderate food stuck to the plates and some glasses when originally loaded. I could never do that with my previous GE dishwasher. It's only been about 3 weeks since we've had it, but so far so good. The installation was done correctly by the team that arrived with no scratches or mars on the exterior. After the install, one of the crew stayed around to be certain all was working correctly, and he heard water being brought into the washer. Appreciated that. After we finally got around to doing a typical load, and subsequent loads, we're initially very happy with the Bosch. I especially like the top 3rd drawer for silverware and other misc utensils. I would buy it again, based on our limited time with the machine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After much comparison of the maintenance and performance of Bosch dishwashers we wholeheartedly chose Bosch to add beauty to our recently remodeled kitchen. It has proven to exceed our expectations to clean the most baked-on casserole dishware. This work is done quietly with its simple beauty accenting the surrounding walnut cabinetry!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the 3rd dishwasher I have purchased, but, the first Bosch. It is the most quiet ever. I will always buy Boach!

After a lot of research, I selected this Bosch. I installed it myself (turns out you really do need HOT water input). The reason for the low rating is the noise level. Bosh claims 44 dB. It is consistently MUCH higher, 55-65. I do like the third rack and the choice of 60 min cycle. I am happy with the cleaning overall, but it's no better than my 15 year old KitchenAid was.

Great washer so far. My only complaints would be that the metal on the outside is easily "stained" by finger prints that you cannot get off unless you get a rag with soap and water. So if you have kids you may want to go with something else. Installation was a nightmare. Workers accidently pulled a wire that unplugged an outlet and I had to spend $250 for an electrician to come take apart my kitchen to get it fixed. Probably better off hiring a local handyman to install. The wash itself is great, almost never any food bits left on things. There is a bit of water left on the dishes but nothing crazy.

the dishwasher is very quiet, gets the dishes super clean, and doesn't waste much electricity or water. what more can you ask for. those who complain online are those who don't take the time to research. there are plenty of videos online and how to load and operate this dishwasher. can't really find much fault with this dishwasher now. the tines are closely spaced together but some fold down to make it easier to load bigger items. compared to what else is out there I highly recommend the bosch.

I have owned this Bosch for 8 Years now. My dishes come out spotless. Cannot hear it running. Never have I had any problems with it. I Love ❤️ my Bosch. It’s a little more expensive than some other brands. But very well worth it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cleans well, very quiet No complaints on its cleaning ability. I had wanted hidden controls as I liked the inside rack configuration better but it was back ordered till 8/22. I wanted a replacement sooner so opted for this module. Nice looking but I remove lower flatware basket as I dont use it would be better for my needs if it had the extra row of pins. Can't fault it on performance.

Been extremely hard to get Bosch to come out and look at. leaks horribly from the bottom and now stops mid cycle. we are so stressed because it cost so much and believe we have a lemon. we are loading it correctly. it also leaks from the top as well and drips into panel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We've really enjoyed our new Bosch dishwasher for its ease of use and nearly silent operation. It fit perfect into the space we had for it (one of the reasons we selected this model)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this replacing a 16 year old GE Profile dishwasher, based on lots of research and reviews! This Bosch has not disappointed! We were amazed at how quiet this one is, and all the bells and whistles that it has. We are very pleased with this dishwasher.

A replacement dishwasher washer was part of my kitchen remodel. My requirements were color “black” to match other appliances and quieter than my 2007 GE model. I received Bosch recommendation from several friends, so made the purchase. I was a bit skeptical of the top 3rd rack for silverware. Although it takes longer to load, the results are terrific. I use the 3rd rack rather than the silverware caddy on the lower rack. I have taken the “no rinse” pledge and overall quite satisfied. I have had only one instance that did not clean completely - fried egg that sat overnight. Had to try it. Most was removed, but a bit remained. This model is quiet at 44 db. Mission accomplished. The cleaning cycle is long on “Auto”, so I have a tendency to use the “Speed 60” which is actually 1 hr. 25 min. I would recommend this dishwasher.

Simply doesn’t dry — even with the extra dry function.

We selected the Bosch 300 dishwasher after scanning lots of reviews and focusing on the three most important factors of home appliances; Reliability, Reliability and Reliability. The 300 series seemed to be the top rated. We've been running it for about 1-month now and it hasn't skipped a beat. Product was well packaged, to avoid shipping damage and ours arrived flawless. Fit and finish was very nice. We also purchased the hook up kit, which is just the water supply flex line (good quality). Drain line and power cord was included with our model. The unexpected: As stated, reliability was our main focus, external appearance did catch our eye and the flat silverware drawer is nice. We Were Blown-Away by How Quite This Thing is ! It's hard to tell if its even running. This was an unexpected bonus ! So far we are extremely pleased, time will tell on the reliability rating.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had a Bosch at our previous home for 10 years. Even though it was 10 years old, you could not even hear it running. We moved to a brand new home which came with a GE dishwasher. It sounded like a truck! So after 16 years, even though the original GE still worked, we decided it was time to replace it and bought another Bosch. I didn't realize how much I had missed my old Bosch. The new one is so quiet, again you don't know it's running. Furthermore the dishes are super clean and glass is crystal clear. I also love that the controls are hidden giving it a sleek and clean look. Needless to say we love our Bosch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We replaced a 15 year old dishwasher with this Bosch model and we are very happy. Cleans great, programming is easy and it is so quiet! Worth the nice price!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks you! Finally clean dishes with no spots! What a blessing! Quiet to run and very spacious

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did a lot of research and read reviews both good and bad about Bosch dishwashers. I did not find this model in display at any of the big box stores so I was little hesitant ordering with out seen it in person. I was not in a hurry and paced my order in the middle of the pandemic and it took about 2 months to get it home. The first surprise: Made in the USA. Yes you read it. My dishwasher was made in the U.S that is very important to me specially during these times were we have a big dependency on China. I understand Bosch has factories around the world so your appliance might be assembled somewhere else. Washing performance is great! I'm using a detergent from a big discount store and works perfect . I was concern about drying based on review it seems that higher end model has better drying capabilities. In my case drying is perfect I don't even use the extra dry feature. I believe it also has todo with water hardeness so your results may vary. Things to improve? Normal wash works Bretter for me than automatic wash. I wish I could set normal wash as default when you turn on the dishwasher . I would like to see and test in person other Bosch appliances but where I live the big box stores don't carry Bosch appliances in store.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my new Bosch dishwasher. If it weren’t for the red light on my floor I wouldn’t even know it was on. Does a great job getting everything nice and clean

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best dishwasher I've ever owned and I'm over 70 years old.

Great machine. Surprisingly large amount of space.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new Bosch dishwasher has taken me from the horse and buggy days to now having an appliance that runs like a Mercedes-Benz. It's cleaning capacity, sleek design and noiseless operation is amazing!! Best purchase ever

Yes, like the features it has and how quiet it is..

This dishwasher is so quiet ... you can barely hear anything! It's very efficient in cleaning and has great interior features for placement of dishes, glasses, silverware, etc.... I love the extra tray on top! It's a very solid dishwasher for the price. I'm happy I chose this model!

Unfortunately multiple issues with this item and the installation: arrived with installers without an electrical cord, was then told by installers couldn't do install because under sink water valve was dripping (however hadn't been prior to him turning it). Why would a purchase come without an electrical cord? weird. After paying AGAIN to have it installed, it didn't dry dishes, and smelled inside, left food at bottom. The instructions were so difficult to understand due to mismatched diagrams, no instructions how to operate, had to finally call in, was then met by a very annoyed lady (I wasn't rude or anything, i just think she didn't like her on call job since it was after 5pm PST when I called), she couldn't explain how to operate, was frustrated, then said, give it some time to run a few times in order to dry the dishes. End result=if you want your dishes dry you have to add on that function which will add on another 40 min to the cycle. Really? Almost 3 hours to run the sanitize cycle? Bummer! purchase was 2/23/20 but wanted to wait until had info on dishwasher quality before submitting this.

Does not dry dishes, but is quiet and easy to instal. Pro it’s very easy to install, I Am a woman I installed it myself, extremely quiet, cons dishes remain ridiculously wet and it was a super tight squeeze to get under cabinet. You can install it no problem if there is already an electrical outlet under cabinet next to washer cabinet from prior dishwasher. It comes with all extra parts you don’t need to purchase anything additional. I recommend you run it before sliding it into cabinet to check for leaking water. Super tight squeeze, (see pictures) I have an older home under cabinet is extract minimum space required. I am replacing floor soon so I was able to cut some flooring out in front of dishwasher cabinet space (see pictures) to drop it down low enough to slide under counter. There is a lip on the back side so I had to slightly tip it to get under counter edge(see pictures). I used two wide butcher knives between insulation and counter top (see picture)to reduce insulation bunching up as I slid dishwasher under cabinet. BIG flaw dishes remain VERY VERY WET (see picture) this is not what I expected. I ran it on extra dry, dishes are MORE WET than when I hand wash and rinse in hot water. I’ll try the sanitize cycle next hoping that will fix the problem. I will update if I resolve the LACKING ABILITY TO DRY dishes problem.
