Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy, and expensive and you probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

I just replaced the 35 year old dishwasher that was in the house I just moved into with a Bosch. What a wonderful decision. It uses very little water and electricity and does a splendid job. Just scrape the dishes (no rinsing necessary) and voila....clean dishes every time. Couldn't be happier!

Dishes are so clean!

Submitted by KT D - 11/18/2022

Our last dishwasher came with the house so it was at least 10 Years old , my guess. Towards the end, I added dawn dishsoap to all the cycles to help in keeping the dishes clean. Most of the time, they never came out Clean. They also smelled too so I was running empty cycles to clean the inside of the dishwasher. Then... a certain part broke, 2 x in 2 years and we said enough! Now.... new dishwasher!! I can put the dishes away right after the cycle. They are clean and they don't smell. Thank god!

Smaller dishwasher that cleans your dishes without a heating element, without the heating element has not been a problem at all. Dishes are angled at a steeper angle than I was use to. Good purchase

Happy Lady

Submitted by clean for the hollidays - 11/13/2022

The best dishwasher I have ever owned. I looked at consumer reports to see what was recomended. I am so happ I did. They rated this machine the best for cleaning and quiet. They were correct. My last machine was so loud I didn't want to be in the kitchen when it was running. This is the first machine I personally bought. Every other home I lived in came with a machine, which makes me wonder what the previous owners were thinking when they bought the machine. Nothing I have used has compared to this one.

improvement for the interior of Dishwasher

Submitted by Marylou Roche - 11/1/2022

We have been using the dishwasher for about a month now and like the results we experience. Does a great job getting the dishs clean. We find it a bit difficult loading the machine in the top section. and Especially the flatware area. Since the handles go in first we have to handle the dirty end of the flatware. Also the glassware can be somewhat difficult to load.

Great Dishwasher

Submitted by Vince - 10/24/2022

Have had this dishwasher for a little over 2 months now and I can say my wife is very happy with it. I will say it has smaller inside dimensions than the 20 year old Kitchenaid it replaced for the same opening but if it's because of the extra insulation I'll take it because this thing is quiet. When doing my research I noticed this Bosch doesn't come with a heating element, that worried me a little bit, no need though, follow the directions and recomendations of using the Jet Dri and dishes are dry & spotless everytime. I once opened the door right after a cycle and got an instant facial the heat coming out was so warm. So anyway for being one of Bosch's lower end dishwashers we coudn't be happier, & the price was right.

Garbage

Submitted by hand washing my dishes - 10/14/2022

Worked for only the first two months. then it stopped spring hot water and stop dissolving tabs and did not clean the dishes at all. I have been trying for over a month to get it fixed. There have already been two techs out and it is still not working. Warranty service is horrible. Had I known I never would have purchased. Still washing my dishes by hand.

Huge upgrade

Submitted by GJW87 - 10/12/2022

This has been a great upgrade from the prior dishwasher we had for the last 15 years. The racks give some nice flexibility for awkward loads. For the price point, it's a very quiet dishwasher with enough cycle options including sanitization. Use the jet dry. Works great for rinsing and drying. I buy the giant bottle at Costco and it ends up costing about $10 more year to add this.

No Regrets

Submitted by Jefesitachica - 10/12/2022

The first thing we noticed with the Bosch 100 was the ease of operation. No super fancy settings that are rarely used. The most outstanding feature is how quiet it is. We live in a condo and are mindful of not making excessive noise. This dishwasher is perfect. Also because it doesn't have heating element my kitchen doesn't feel like an oven when it's on. As to the dishes - absolutely spotless. This is definitely a choice you won't regret. Been over a month now- still doing excellent job.

Submitted by PSB49 - 10/5/2022

I bought my BOSCH because my Son has had one for several years. I couldn't get over how quiet it is, whenever I was there for a visit. I couldn't afford his model with the full third rack, so I bought what was good for my little condo. WOW, what a surprise when my BOSCH was installed! I didn't realize their was a mini third rack, how convienient. The more amazing thing that happened is that my BOSCH isn't just quiet like my Son's, It sounds SILENT,couldn't ask for more !!!

Bosch 100 Series Dishwasher

Submitted by marcia m - 10/1/2022

I am so disappointed with my new dishwasher. The shelves, both top and bottom, make it virtually impossible to load dishes efficiently. The rungs are not properly spaced or angled to fit dishes and bowls of varying sizes. I've used many model dishwashers since the late 60's - this is the ONLY one my dishes (the same ones) don't fit into!

Love my dishwasher

Submitted by Kalla - 9/21/2022

I have had my dishwasher for about a month. It is extremely quiet and does a great cleaning job. The one thing I don't like is that the auto cycle is over 2 hours. There is a 1 hour cycle which I usually use. I also wish that it had been programmed to shut off when done. You have to set it up to do that and I waiting for one of my kids to help me.

Efficient,Quiet,And it "Cleans Up Well* !!!

Submitted by Proud Bosch Owner - 9/18/2022

This dishwasher is super quiet and cleans the dishes superbly!!! Love the *well thought out extra features* of ths dishwasher;extra rack for long utensils/odds and ends,the flip up racks for extra cups and long stem wine glasses, as well as the adjustible upper rack allowing tall pots to be accomodated from the lower rack. Couple that with the folding tines helps fit in those large pots. Five stars waiting for you when you lessen the angle of the tines !

Quitest dishwasher we've heard

Submitted by T.M. - 9/11/2022

This dishwasher is so quiet! We generally use the 1-hour setting and the dishes come out beautiful. A pan with baked-on food did not get completely clean, but everything else has. Our only complaint so far is that the bottom rack will fall down off the track if you don't pull it straight out onto the door.

Series 100 dishwasher - excellent!

Submitted by TomW - 8/21/2022

I had to replace my 15+ year old Kenmore, but since my wife had passed away, my needs were someone less. Based on the recommendation of the last Service Tech who came to fix the old one, I went with the Bosh 100 Series. It cleans very well. I always use the "Sanitize" button and, force of habit, let it run overnight. By morning, all the dishes are spotless. The only "learning curve" for me is the placement of the glasses and coffee mugs in the top rack. I'm still learning - it is just different. Would I recommend this unit? In a heartbeat -- it's so quiet and, well, just does its job....

SHEM3AY52N Dishwasher

Submitted by Ken Rosenbalm - 8/20/2022

I am very disapointed in this dishwasher. This item was delivered and installed on July 15, 2022 and I have been disappointed since then. The machine does not shut off when cycle is finished, there is no heating element, you can't change the settings once you push certain buttons, and you have to wait a long time for the dishes to dry. I have contacted the place of purchase twice and they said they would send out a repair man each time, but I have not heard from them. I will not recommend this dishwasher to anyone who is looking to buy.
