Bosch Benchmark Dishwasher Review for 2024

[@Trent-tr2nx]

Excellent video, well scripted, delivered and very succinct!

[@The-Real-Al]

I thought the Benchmark has ballbearing rollers on racks and 800 series does not. True?

[@dirkmanderin]

Is there any difference between the third rack in the Benchmark and 800? What about the fold down tines in the bottom rack?

[@yellalot101]

The 3rd rack is the same on both.

[@crazyhass84]

Bench mark has its own water softener! Thats what drives the cost

[@vivenreddy]

I've noticed that the Thermador middle rack is sturdier and smoother than the Bosch 800. How does that racking and rollers/bearings on the Benchmark compare?

Will you be making a video on the LG 5 cu ft all in one washer dryer combo? And maybe compare it to the GE combo washer dryer too?

[@YaleAppliance1]

Yes I will

[@peterrabbit2719]

@@YaleAppliance1 Normally Yale Appliance would be the first out of the gate for this review. I was a video where LG is stating their newer washers have anti-microbial coatings. Can you confirm from LG if this washer/dryer combo has anti-microbial coating on its front door gasket, detergent dispenser and hoses. Thanks.

@@YaleAppliance1 Steve here’s the clip of LG stating their washing machines have anti-microbial properties. Can you confirm from LG if this new washer/dryer combo has anti-microbial properties. Thanks. kzbin.infoUgkxHzSsN6RDljcyPUJqj9aRu0m82Wgt0ZSn?si=CyHKWVtY-nY7Th2s

I just got a benchmark on sale for the price of an 800 series! Woot woot

[@YaleAppliance1]

Yes....wait for any holiday to buy appliances

[@bluedrummajor2876]

I would like to know what's going on with the Cove dishwashers put out by SubZero/Wolf, and how it stacks up to the Miele and Bosche. Also, what about Gaggenau dishwashers?

[@YaleAppliance1]

Good question...Now we can do Cove since its more available. Gaggenau is a better Bosch dishwasher

[@carolync1287]

Is the Bosch 800 available in panel-ready or is it just the Benchmark?

[@YaleAppliance1]

800 is panel ready

[@pqtat718]

I thought the Benchmark has better racks (ball bearing) and more adjustable tines compared to the 800 series?

[@wandadavidt436]

what about the 500 series? what is the diffence in the 500 and the 800 series?

[@Kindlyone777]

Which Bosch has the built in water softener ?

[@RuthNPC]

The benchmark has the water softener feature.

[@ValkyrieIA]

What about the more reliable LG, no mention?

[@YaleAppliance1]

They don't have a dishwasher in that price range....yet

[@letterspace1letterspace266]

The zeolite 100% works for drying plastics. Our old Samsung with heating element couldn't do it. Bosch was worth the money

[@MiklaDfar]

"quietness you won't even notice"...WTF? THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT!!!!!

[@YaleAppliance1]

Perhaps we could have phrased it better...

[@MiklaDfar]

@@YaleAppliance1Sorry, was a little snippy there. I try to contain the monster that comes out when I am in pain, but I am not always successful.

[@YaleAppliance1]

No worries....

[@paramountx]

​@@YaleAppliance1your ellipses make me uneasy...

[@Chinchilla27150]

I think the point she was making was that the Benchmark is not noticeably quieter than the 800 (even though the 800 is technically louder) since they are both effectively silent. You could, in other words, notice the quietness (or absence of noise) if the competitor were 15-20 decibels louder. It's hard for most of us, I would guess, to justify paying $400 more for the light, the on-floor countdown, and the imperceptibly quieter operation, so I appreciated the summary.
