Not good enough for the price!
3/5
I'd expected better build quality at the price. I think Bosch can do much better.
The reduction in noise on regular wash cycles in comparison to the 12 year old cheap and cheerful model it replaces is negligible. On the control panel, light bleeds from one button to those next to it. When depressing a button, those directly next to it flex and move also. In general, the buttons feel cheap and not long lasting. When opening the door, the mechanism has an irritating rattle from new. The height of the unit is very short in comparison to standard UK work top heights meaning it will need to be raised up via additional floor boards or timber so it can be mounted pressed up to the bottom of the work top surface. The feet don't actually extend enough to accomplish this. There's two issues because of this, firstly, the projected image onto the floor during operation looks fuzzy and lacks definition because its out of focus (the capability to adjust this would have been useful) and secondly a lot of space that could actually be utilised for larger internal area is just wasted. The accompanying installation instructions are difficult to understand and make what's quite a simple task unnecessarily hard. I found someone's Youtube video a lot more useful.
It seems to wash better than the model it replaced though. As it stands, I wouldn't recommend anyone buys this. It's well overpriced and the build quality is below par for a machine of this cost.
