Dishwasher Buying Guide

How to choose the best dishwasher

If you’re looking for a new dishwasher, this guide will give you the information and insights to find one that will fit your home and lifestyle perfectly. As a global leader in home appliances, we know a thing or two about what makes a great dishwasher that will save you time and effort. This guide introduces all the latest dishwasher features and technologies, and shares hints on how to get the most from your appliance.

What are the latest dishwasher trends and technology?

If you haven’t bought a new dishwasher for a few years you might not be up to speed with the latest design and technology developments. The best new dishwasher models are packed with features to save time, water and electricity, and are designed to give maximum protection to your dishes, glasses and cutlery. Some even have neat features like internal LED lighting. From smart dishwashers that can reorder detergent automatically, to built-in drying systems and flexible drawers that make them easier to load, there are many new dishwasher features to look out for.

What are wi-fi enabled smart dishwashers?

Smart dishwashers enable you to control your appliance remotely via an app on your tablet or smartphone, giving you more convenience and flexibility. Bosch models with Home Connect let you remotely set your dishwasher and keep track of progress from wherever you are, and they can even re-order dishwasher tablets automatically using Amazon Dash Replenishment so you never need to run out of detergent again. Home Connect can also make your home smart by connecting to other wi-fi enabled appliances and devices. You can even voice-control them using Alexa and Google Home smart speakers.

How can I stop hand drying items when the dishwasher finishes?

Many dishwashers leave moisture behind when the washing cycle has finished, meaning some items may require additional drying before they are put away. Bosch's unique PerfectDry feature uses natural Zeolith minerals to improve drying performance, including on plastics such as lunchboxes and containers. Items come out dry and ready to put away, helping to reduce the need for additional hand drying.
