We waited over 1 year for delivery but it was worth the wait! This is by far the BEST dishwasher I have ever used. No need to rinse dishes prior to putting in the dishwasher. They come out clean every time. The cycle takes just over an hour to run.

SHVM63W53N Review

I recently replaces an eighteen year old Bosch SHV46-C03UC-14 with this new model and have been very unhappy with the internal layout. I've been using it for over a month now. As far as the operation goes, they added a new "start" button in addition to the On/Off button. While not a problem, I do not see the value in this as it is just one more unnecessary step in running the dishwasher. Oh well. The previous dishwasher (SHV46-C03UC-14), had just two trays with a silverware basket. We were able to find an arrangement for all of our dishes, bowls, glasses, etc. that worked very well. That is not the case with the new unit. The previous lower tray had two rows of parallel tines (running left to right) that accepted all of our plates and provided many options to place bowls, and glass storage containers of different geometries. Here the front row has been turned 90 degrees and the tines are spaced and angled in a manner that precludes placing anything other than plates there. Soup and cooking bowls just fall over. In the old model, we could place our soup bowls in a row upright between the tines of the upper rack. Now the middle tray has been redesigned so there there is no way to stand up these bowls, either there or on the lower rack. This means that they must be set facing flat down and a few bowls consume the entire rack area. I'd put these bowls on the top silverware rack, but this is not vertically adjustable (why not since you can lower the middle rack??) and is so close to the top of the dishwasher that almost nothing other than silverware can be placed there. That is very disappointing. And speaking of silverware, we carefully place each piece in the spacers provided, but after much experimentation, we cannot find a method that holds the silverware in place when the drawer is shut -- not slammed, but simply slid in normally. The next time the drawer is opened, many of the pieces are loose as if they had just been thrown in. I've always had good results with Bosch dishwashers and was glad to be purchasing one as a replacement. I'm so disappointed because my wife and I find this a big step backwards from the previous layout which means we have to run the dishwasher more frequently with what I consider to be a partial load. That's frustrating. I'm writing this review simply as a heads-up for other potential buyers to take a close look at the racks and maybe bring some of your most used dishes, bowls, containers to a showroom to see just how well it works.

I'm very happy with this dishwasher. The dishes are cleaned like you would expect from a high-quality dishwasher. The plastics are not covered with waterspots when I remove them from the dishwasher either. I waited for the panel-ready model to become available and I'm very glad I did. It blends in with my kitchen cabinets and doesn't stand out.

Avoid - Faulty Door Springs

Door springs wound way too tight. Obliterated all the cheap plastic housing - rendered this unusable. Hopefully Bosch will replace - substandard quality for them - I've been a customer my entire life and never had anything go wrong until now.
