Bosch Serie 2 SMS25AI00G Standard Dishwasher - Silver - A++ Rated

Extremely pleased with the dishwasher, it's quiet, cleans well, and looks good in the kitchen. There are little features such as the grill on cutlery basket that seem to improve cleaning of small spoons. This can be flipped to the side to fit larger items. It's simple things that have taken a lot of thought process that make big difference, and this runs throughout the design. So far very pleased.

Does the job well. Very Quiet. The child lock pull tab is flimsy. Didn't expect the eco program to take 2.5 hours to complete.

It does what it says. No fireworks but nothing to grumble about too much either. The only critique I would say is that the front buttons and dial etc feel cheap. The on/off button in particular feels like a button I would expect to find on a little tykes toy rather than a £400 bosh appliance. The display isn’t particularly clear giving the amount of time until end of cycle but the fact that it does display this is good- you just have to squint a bit to actually be able to read what it says. The cycle is very quiet and it seems to cope fairly well with heavily soiled dishes. These were the two main reasons why I got this one and it does both of those things pretty well. All in all a good machine. Not great. But not terrible either.

Bought this as I wanted a dishwasher to help tidy the kitchen. This looks so much better than I thought it would and already has made life easier. Plenty of space for everything and the quick wash produces clean items just as well as the eco wash. Sooooooo quiet! Never realised how quiet it could be. The brushed steel front looks brilliant and we are hoping to get the fridge freezer to match next!

The water feed pipe supplied is plastic and quite rigid, requiring a few alterations to the kitchen cabinet to improve routing. I would consider replacing with something longer and more flexible. Apart from that simple to plunmb in. The control panel is simple to use but reliant on the use of plastic, feels a bit cheap. Machine is efficient with an effective short cycle however it is a little noisy, not silent. No annoying beep at cycle end which is good. Washes well. Top tray is a bit fiddly with the fold over glass supports but suspect they can be removed. Overall construction and if it lasts as long as our last Bosch dishwasher we will be very happy.

I got this to replace a 20 year old machine that abruptly died. I was a little concerned about buying an "basic" dishwasher, but was pleased with the purchase. It is much quieter than the old machine we had, but not as quiet as some of the more expensive modern dishwashers. I found it washed very well and leaves cutlery and glassware shiny with no streaks. It is not good at drying the tops of mugs where water remains after the cycle. The only negative, and this is not to do with the dishwasher, rather the description AO provides: this machine does not have the Aquastop feature. It has leak detection, but not Aquastop.
