This Bosch dishwasher is just perfect if you have do not have enough space for a full size or even slim line dishwasher as it will sit on top of the kitchen worktop. It is simple to connect (I have absolutely no plumbing knowledge yet managed to do it without any problems!!). It has a number of different wash cycles. The hot wash is great for very dirty items and the quick wash is adequate for glasses and less dirty items. It takes large plates, saucepans, baking dishes without any problem. It comes with a cutlery basket for placing cutlery and has shelves for placing smaller items. There is a window so you can see if the dishwasher salt needs replacing. It cleans really well and leaves no marks.

My only two criticisms are that it can be a little bit noisy but this may just be my sensitive ears! The other problem is the compartment for the dishwasher tablet is a little small therefore I tend to break them in half. Other than that I would highly recommend it.

I paid approximately £300 for the dishwasher 12 months ago.
The hot cycle takes approximately 1 hour, the fast wash takes about 30 minutes. There is also a prewash cycle and rinse only cycle but I do not tend to use these. It is a 4 place setting and I can easily fill it with 4 large dinner plates, 4-6 glasses, 4 side plates and bowls plus cutlery.
