When I saw that $467.99 price when you walked over to the second Bosch 800, I was pretty surprised at inflation over just the past year, when I realized… that was actually for the Whirlpool above 😅 The $1.1k price is higher but far more reasonable for that particular dishwasher. Those Benchmarks though… phew! That’s a hefty premium. $450 isn’t as bad, but ‘round here (Portland area) they’re closer to +$1k more.

@markpreston7343 Год назад

We have the 800 depicted here, and it is amazing. It cleans SO much better than the Frigidaire dishwasher that came with our house and is so quiet it is hard to know when it is on. We've had ours for about 2 years and have had no problems with it at all. I will never go back to another brand.

Nice review. While I like the time display on the floor, it’s not worth $450 to me. And I much prefer the top drawer like the 800 series over the benchmark top drawer. One thing you forgot to mention about the top drawer on the 800 series is there are wings on either side than can be lowered to accommodate items that might otherwise not fit up there, like a wire whisk, for instance. A couple months ago I replaced a 13 year old SHE68E15UC with an 800 series, SHXM78Z55N/20. The crystal dry feature is the real deal, much improved drying over the older Bosch it replaced. And like all Bosch dishwashers, there are no concerns about plasticware in the bottom rack warping or melting because there’s no bottom heating element for drying like in conventional dishwashers. I feel like the older Bosch DW door was more substantial, the new door doesn’t feel as solid as the old one, but I’ve not had any problems with it and the new DW works great!

@Donsappliances Год назад

Glad to hear your 800 series is a good fit for you! The crystal dry is an efficient dry setting that we love here at Don's too!

@latui7350 Год назад

Unless you have a water softener for your house, I would argue the built in water softener makes it worth it. It will end up paying for itself over the life of the dishwasher. With the water softener, you can use 1/2 the normal amount of detergent for the cycle, it won't etch your glassware, all residues (detergent, food, scum, etc) wash away easily, and it will greatly extend the life of the appliance since it won't have hard water buildup in the internal components. I recently added a whole house softener and I can't tell you enough how much of a difference it made.

@speedlever Год назад

@@latui7350 We’ve had our water tested and don’t need a softener. I use a powdered detergent and use about half the recommended amount and quite happy with the results at the end of the cycle.

@vivenreddy 6 месяцев назад

How are the Bosch 800 and Benchmark different from the Thermador dishwashers? I heard that since they are part of the BSH group, they are pretty similar. I saw the Thermador middle rack has nice smooth bearing rollers. It doesnt look like Bosch have them.

@CarMaintenanceGuy Год назад

I wanted to buy a Miele or, Cove by Sub-Zero. The problem is that when I read the reviews for those two, people who bought them all complained how unreliable they were and said they eventually had to go back to buying a Bosch dishwasher that they owned previously. So it looks like the Bosch 800 series is really the best out there for the money. If you want a good dishwasher that is going to be used personally and not for a rental property, this is the one to buy. I had the 800 series in the house I just sold and when I buy a new house, this is the exact model I plan to buy and install to replace whatever is supplied by the builder. My previous Bosch 800 was $2000. This one is a deal for $1200 at Home Depot. This is a NO BRAINER to buy.

@Donsappliances Год назад

Great to hear you like the Bosch 800 series!

@johnwhite2576 Год назад

Wher are you reading Miele is less reliable than Bosch? I have a.ways heard just the opposite!

@CarMaintenanceGuy Год назад

@@johnwhite2576 I saw it on another video a long time ago. I've had two Bosch 800 series and loved them. I bought a top of the line KitchenAid and it doesn't even compare to the Bosch. A HUGE buyer's remorse purchase. I need another Bosch, but I will lose the $900 or so I spent on this thing. It looks nice on the outside but is not as quiet or made as well as the Bosch. My last Bosch was nearly $2000.

@Ayram9 Месяц назад

We've loved our Miele with its features way ahead of Bosch even when we bought it over 12 years ago. It was a great machine, however it just gave up the goose and the issue is that hardly anyone repairs Miele locally (not a small town, either). When I called around, most people said they can repair Bosch, not Miele. So, that made this easy. Bosch 800 it is!

@user-fn9fc4ui6h 4 месяца назад

Glad to see someone has had success; have had mine for over six months, tried EVERYTHING, just unloaded, a typical load...RESULT: 5 Bowls, 1 Spoon, 1 Cup, and 2 Plates have to be rewashed, i.e. HANDWASHED...that's about average! I'd show a picture/video if I knew how. I know it looks good, but bottom line...at least the 500 series...SUCKS.

@AL-pu7ux 2 года назад

I couldn’t figure out the difference between the benchmark and 800 series on the bosch website so this was tremendously helpful. does the 800 series have the timer that shows up on the floor?

$467.99 for an 800? I just paid $1100 for a black stainless 800 at Home Depot. Is your tag incorrect? Edit: I see the other tag for $1199. I’m assuming the $467 is for the whirlpool unit above it?

@Billnn54 2 года назад

You're assuming correctly.

@jochimbenschneider1915 2 года назад

That’s what I want. I have a 300 and it displays the time and controls. I hate not seeing the time! Stupidity. So yes that time displays on the floor is good.

@Donsappliances 2 года назад

We agree - displaying the time and controls is such a useful feature!

@josephpiazza97 2 года назад

Just remember what you what is a $200 difference between a Series 300 and a 800. Even feature is a price point. So really not stupid but marketing.,

What year was InfoLight introduced to the Benchmark Series? 800 Series only projects a red dot, no?

@Donsappliances Год назад

Hello! Bosch started including the infolight on their models around 2011. The Bosch 100, 300, 500, and Benchmark series all have the infolight. All of these models use the red light (including the 800 series) as the indicator.

There's something wrong with either your machine or the install. Any idea whether the sound deadening blanket was installed? I replaced a 3 year old LG unit with the 800 series, and quite literally, the only way I can tell it's running is the red dot on the floor. Mine is installed in an island in a single large room kitchen/living combo, and I've never had the dishwasher be audible.

Call me stupid, but what is a benchmark dishwasher? Is that the bottom Of the line dishwasher? Compared to the top of the line which is 800? Sorry I don’t buy dishwashers very often and I have never heard that term before. It makes sense that bitch Mart would be what you measure everything else from, but I don’t know that 2b The case. It would be helpful if y’all would explain this to people who don’t buy dishwashers every day. I don’t know what I’m comparing except I’m comparing the 800 to something and I don’t know if that’s the 100 to 300 or the 500 series or if there’s a series called benchmark this is very confusing!

Should have edited out your struggle trying to open the salt reservoir - makes you loose credibility when you aren't at least 10% smarter than a plastic door.
