I have a 3 years old Bosch and I am very happy with it.
The only thing I could do very well without, is that stupid soillevel sensor.

soil level sensors...
I've actually found them to be quite good. The Automatic cycle in my 2005 AEG, and both the Sensor Wash and Sensor Wash Gentle cycles on my current Miele wash surprisingly well. I notice more fo a difference in cycle times iwth the Miele though... sometimes, if the load is lightly soiled it will be finished in an hour and a half, but if it's heavy soiled will take up to 2.5 hours to do a cycle. Soil sensors are the way to go really, IMO...
In fact, I hardly find the need to use the Pots & Pans cycle as the Sensor Wash does surprisingly well with even baked on loads.

The Automatic cycle of my Bosch does a great job on really dirty loads, but if only one or two items are heavily soiled and the rest is not, I had to run it through an other cycle sometimes.
So, I prefer the triple "A" rated, non automatic cycle for most of my loads and get good results.

Well, after having my Bosch for 1 yrs now and having the amazing results like pictured above and logixx posted the link the his Bosch website, I went to the US website. Since my house is on the market, I have definatly decided that in the new house, I want a Bosch Dishwasher, Washer, and Dryer.
I love mine!
I am on my third Bosch Dishwasher and would do it again. I, too, left one behind in the old house and it was the first thing I put into the new house.
I have a Bosch Washer and Dryer as well (first Bosch ones I've had) and am very pleased. They are now almost five years old without a problem.

Question for our members on BBC-
(or anyone with the answer, but our UK members brought up my question).
What do you mean by "integrated" dishwasher?
To me, that implies "built-in," or "undercabinet," but I have a feeling it means something entirely different.

Lawrence, Integrated dishwasher are also sold here. They're the ones with the hidden controls on top and, with custom panels, will blend right into the cabinetry and ya don't really know a dishwasher is there.
Cascade Complete Vs Cascade "Shine Shield"
Have to say haven't noticed much difference in terms of cleaning ability between the two. Both contain enzymes and "shine shield", but the Cascade Complete costs more and one gets less per box. While shopping at the local K-Sears earlier this week, nabbed a large box of Cascade "shine shield" as it was nearly twice the size of Cascade Complete and about $1.25 cheaper than what one pays for a smaller box of the later locally.
Lately Consumer's Reports has been giving high marks to store brand dishwasher detergents, like America's Choice, and Costco's brand.

Thanks, but that's just plain silly...Who in their right mind wants to hide a dishwasher???
To me, a dishwasher is one of the greatest advances of the 20th Century!
Laundress.....cheaper dishwasher detergents WITH enzymes seem to work as well or nearly as well as Cascade...for less....at least in my experience.

Why hide the dishwasher..
I have always thought the same thing that they should be seen and not hidden. I guess I thought I was in the minority but it appears that is not so at least in this group.
I love all y'all! That is my southern version of "all of you." Being a tranplanted northerner I get pretty excited when I can do that!

Well I personally find fully integrated dishwashers cleaner and neater... all appliances in our kitchen are fully integrated and it looks so much sleeker, and is much easier to clean than our old kitchen where all the appliances were on show and freestanding. IMO, as much as I love appliances, fully integrated stuff is a must for a modern kitchen to be sleek & nice looking, as well as easier to maintain.

Lawrence, I certainly agree with that sentiment! It's amazing how many people on kitchen design and appliance forums get in a huge snit about needing to hide their dishwasher.
Please--
When I said "Who in their right mind wants to hide a dishwasher," I did not mean it as a criticisim, but as an amused puzzlement.
If I ever get to design a kitchen, my dishwashers will be openly visible, as will every other appliance.

When we did the kitchen over, the guy at sears was quite suprised that I did not want an Inagrated Kenpool dishwasher.. He said that eveyr one was buying them.. Not me... Nope.. I like the buttons where you can see them to use them. Plus i think the intagrated ones are far less user friendly.
I don't like all the electronic buttons on the top of the door either. I wanna see what has been chosen, if someone happens to run my dishwasher, as well as I wanna see the timer countdown. What good is a digital timer display if it's on the top of the door lol.
Well,
I was like the rest of you about being able to see the controls, buttons, etc. However, when I first had seen the Bosch dishwasher that I currently have, It was in my Partner's brothers house. They had just redone their kitchen and she got the bosch. Stainless Steel front, fully intergrated. After being able to use it for a week, (she allowed me to take over the loading and unloading of the machine), I was sold. My mahcine does not have a count down indicator or progress lights. There are only 6 buttons on the top of the door. The On/Off button, then Top Rack Only, Power Scrub Plus, Regular Wash, Delicate/Econo, Rinse & Hold--that's it. I just love it. One button to push, Close the door,and WOOOOOOSSSHHHHHH----clean, sparkling dishes.

I don't put extra detergent in the door anymore.
I used to. I have always had KA dishwashers and always used to fill all three soap dishes. I'd fill the two that got closed and filled the third that was left exposed. So, naturally, when I got my first Bosch dishwasher I couldn't imagine it could clean with only one wash. But it does so I don't bother with the extra soap anymore. I'm on my third Bosch and I have been extremely happy with all three.
You should see the Bobload I had yesterday
)! I wish I would have taken a picture.
