What Customers Are Saying
The 18-inch dishwasher effectively cleans even heavily soiled dishes while running very quietly, making it a great option for small spaces and homes with open floor plans. The third rack is a useful feature that adds meaningful capacity without taking up too much space. While a few minor drawbacks were mentioned, such as plastic dishes not drying perfectly and the silverware basket feeling a bit fragile, these are seen as minor tradeoffs given the overall excellent performance and value of the product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very quiet replacement of my 20 year old dishwasher. I especially like the top narrow drawer for larger implements. So nice to walk away to fun while this dishwasher does all the work! Thank you Bosch!!!

Bosch 18 inch
Installed feb 1 2026 dead by July 29. 2026 $1150.00 dollars. Very disappointed I thought I got a good brand Paid twice the price of others.
Finally back in the Future
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to downsize my home 9 years ago and I had been living without a dishwasher because my old house did not have cabinetry fitted for it. But I finally found a craftsman who refitted a cabinet to fit my Darling 18" Dishwasher. I love my little Bosch. As a pianist, I am protecting my hands and saving so much time. And My Bosch was made in Poland where my favorite composer, Chopin, was born and raised. I can even hear a piano Nocturne while...

Bosch 300 Series Dishwasher
Nice little dishwasher, reliable, does the job, no problems, 2nd one I've owned. Would buy again.

Good things come in small packages
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dishwasher is narrower than the typical appliance, but it holds just as many dirty dishes (in my opinion - more than the full-sized one that I replaced!). It is very quiet and efficient. I highly recommend it.

3 weeks until a warranty visit
Title says it. Been waiting since June 8 for a June 11 appt, but then they call and say July 1. This is completely unreasonable.

Excellent little dishwasher
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We needed a small dishwasher for a kitchenette in our remodeled downstairs and Bosch made the perfect one. Real buttons, not all touchscreen, and incredibly quiet. Most importantly the dishes get really clean.

Cleans everything nicely!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been really happy with our dishwasher so far. We have had it installed just over a month and everything comes out super clean. The only time we've had something come out a bit dirty was when we had a lot of things on the bottom 2 racks, so the 3rd rack had a couple things that needed a re-wash.

Love its efficiency
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love our new Bosch dishwasher. I will say it has been an adjustment from a regular size dishwasher but it cleans everything perfectly. I'm loving all my new Bosch appliances.
