Quality

There are many standards of quality. Some rate performance, others design, materials and

style, but we don’t stop until the product meets the exacting Bosch standard of German-

engineered quality. That means using the highest-quality stainless steel along with other

solid design materials. All housed in the most innovative machine we can produce. We

strive to create dishwashers that meet our collective standards as the #1 dishwasher

brand, a leadership that has been conÀrmed by leading consumer publications.

Custom Panel

Pairing a custom cabinet

panel with your washer ampli-

Àes your kitchen’s look by giving it a

minimalist, avant-garde feel. Its sleek

look disappears into your cabinetry for

a quietly Áush installation.

German-engineered quality

When we talk about German

engineering, we’re talking about our

commitment to producing the world’s

best products. We use the smartest

thinking to make complex machinery

easy to operate while using the highest-

quality materials to build them.

Good Housekeeping Seal

For more than 100 years, the Good

Housekeeping Seal of Approval has

been reassuring consumers that

they’ve made the smart choice. Which

is why we’re proud that all Bosch

dishwashers are backed by the Good

Housekeeping Seal of Approval.

Quality testing

100% of our dishwashers are tested at

our New Bern, North Carolina, factory,

and go through 485 individual quality

control tests before being shipped.

We test dishwashers through their

traditional lifespan, up to 4,000 wash

cycles, the equivalent of 10 years’ use.

Stainless steel tub

Bosch dishwashers’ high-quality stain-

less steel construction retains heat

better than plastic tubs, which helps

dry dishes faster and more efÀciently.

They also come with a lifetime war-

ranty against rust-through, because

not all stainless steel tubs have the

same quality.

Self-latching door

Keep the door at the position you

want it when you open your Ascenta

dishwasher or load your dishes. The

self-latching door holds at any position,

and if your door is open at less than

20°, the door will automatically close

and latch shut.

Performance

With Bosch, our sophisticated technologies aren’t just ultra-efÀcient, they’re ultra-

effective at getting dishes clean and spot-free. And it's these technologies that have

led to Bosch's standing as the top-rated dishwasher line in the U.S.

Variable spray pressure

Higher and lower spray

pressure allows for better

load customization and enhanced

cleaning performance, based on the

cycle that is selected.

Extra-tall item sprinkler

Hand-washing large items becomes a

thing of the past, thanks to this handy

innovation. Simply remove the top rack

and place your serving platters, cookie

sheets, hood Àlters and refrigerator

shelves that are up to 22" high in the

bottom rack.

Pressure

ActiveTab® system

Innovatively designed and integrated

into the middle of the dishwasher,

ActiveTab helps dissolve detergent

tablets more efÀciently and effectively.

Water softener

The 800 Plus has a water-softening

system that softens the water to the

optimal level and eliminates spots

caused by lime deposits left behind by

hard water.

Triple-Àltration system

The triple-Àltration system uses a

three-step process to remove even the

Ànest dirt particles from the washing

cycle, for sparkling-clean dishes and

glasses every time. And all three Àlter

elements are self-cleaning for worry-

free operation.

Auto Wash

By detecting the amount of water

and debris that is drained from the

dishwasher each cycle, Auto Wash is

able to optimize the amount of new

water for following cycles, helping to

maximize water and energy efÀciency

while maintaining top performance.
