Bosch SHX65CM5N

This dishwasher doesn’t always get all the dishes clean, and they never seem to come out completely dry, even with rinse aid and the auto air feature. We frequently have to run some of them through a second time. We make sure there’s nothing blocking the spray arms, too. We used to have a GE model that did a better job of cleaning and drying, but it had some major parts fail on us after just a few years. We’re really hoping this one will last longer, but we’re also trying to figure out how to improve its cleaning and drying performance.

This dishwasher really performs well, and I love the feature that opens automatically at the end to aid drying. Setting up the Wi-Fi was a bit tricky at first, and it took me some time to figure out what all the touch-screen buttons do. A little user guide for that would be super helpful. But once you get the hang of it, it’s a fantastic dishwasher!

We’re really enjoying our new dishwasher! Instead of using the silverware basket, we’ve switched to the top tray for utensils, and it works great. Most of the time, our dishes come out sparkling clean. The way it utilizes space is impressive—sometimes we run out of clean dishes before it even fills up! Overall, we’re very happy with it.

We replaced our old dishwasher with the Bosch 500 series, and we’ve been really happy with it. It runs super quietly and has a lot of space inside. The only thing is that figuring out how to organize dishes and plates on the bottom rack can be a bit tricky at times, but overall it’s a great upgrade!

We recently swapped out our older KitchenAid dishwasher for this new Bosch model. Even though it’s not physically bigger, it holds a lot more. It’s super quiet and comes with some great upgrades like a silverware shelf, adjustable racks, and shelves, plus no exposed heating element. I love that the door pops open when it’s done and the indicator light shows it’s running. So far, we’re really happy with it. The only tricky part was choosing from so many similar Bosch models!

This dishwasher is so quiet, you’d barely notice it’s on—until you hear the water draining through the garbage disposal. Everything comes out sparkling clean and spotless!

After moving into our new place last month, the first upgrade we made was swapping out the dishwasher for a Bosch. We had one in our old house and absolutely loved it, so we knew it was a solid choice. It cleans and sanitizes the dishes flawlessly, and it’s so quiet that you barely notice it’s on. Honestly, I think Bosch makes the best dishwashers out there!

I’m really pleased with my new dishwasher overall. It does a great job cleaning the dishes and hasn’t melted any of my plastics. That said, a few of my plastic glasses did come out a bit frosted. I’m a little baffled by some of the settings; the filter doesn’t seem to stay locked, and I can’t get the “clean” light to turn on or the WiFi auto-start feature to work. Could just be me not getting it right. On the bright side, I love that the door opens up to let the dishes air dry!

This dishwasher performs excellently, cleaning effectively without leaving any streaks or spots on glasses and silverware. It’s super quiet, which is a huge plus. The auto-air feature is handy too, as it opens the door automatically after a normal wash to help dry the dishes. Plus, the controls are straightforward, and the app is easy to navigate. Overall, it makes for a great user experience!

My new Bosch 500 Series dishwasher is awesome! It looks great, runs super quietly, and gets the job done really well. I’m impressed with all the smart ways you can load it up. Figuring out the control panel took me a minute, though—it’s a little finicky.

When our old dishwasher started giving out, we did some research and saw Bosch ranked high on Consumer Reports. Went with the mid-range 500 Series, and honestly, we couldn’t be happier. Dishes come out spotless, and the adjustable middle rack makes room for our big cutting board. The auto-open door helps with drying, though plastic containers still need a quick wipe. And the best part? It’s *crazy* quiet—way quieter than our old one. We used to worry about waking the kids, but now we just run it whenever. Super happy with this purchase!

Bosch hypes up how quiet their dishwashers are, and this one is rated at 43 dB. But standing across the room, my meter reads between 46-49 dB. I guess if you average it out with the drying cycle, they can technically claim 43 dB, but don’t expect complete silence. That said, it cleans dishes *really* well. The steam at the end of the cycle isn’t crazy hot, so I’m not worried about it damaging my cabinets. And that little red light? It’s basically just a signal that the drying isn’t done—not really necessary for the wash cycle at all.

It does everything you’d expect from a good dishwasher. I do miss having a visible timer to see how much time is left—nobody wants to pull out their phone just to check an app for that. The auto-opening door for drying? Easily the best feature. The rack layout feels a little odd to me, but I love the third rack for silverware—no more bending down to deal with it. Overall, we’re happy with it!

I recently bought two of these—one for myself and one for my son’s family—and now neither of them pops the door open for the auto air feature! It still cleans well, but the controls are kind of finicky and take some effort to get right. Honestly, I think I’d prefer the simpler controls from my old Bosch, which I absolutely loved.

We got this to replace our old dishwasher and have been really happy with the 500 Series. It’s super quiet and has plenty of space, though figuring out the best way to load the bottom rack can be a bit tricky.

Overall, it works great! The auto dry feature does an awesome job—even plastic items come out dry. Plus, the third rack for silverware is super handy!

My favorite thing about this dishwasher is how insanely quiet it is while running!

We’ve only had this dishwasher for about a month, but it’s a huge upgrade from our old one. I love how adjustable the racks are, the roomy interior, and the fact that it cleans everything so well without needing to prewash. Plus, it’s super quiet. So far, so good!

I’m beyond happy with how well this dishwasher cleans—my dishes come out spotless, and it’s super quiet. But figuring out the settings is a headache. Maybe it’s just me, but I can’t even get the delay start to work.

Really happy with this dishwasher. It’s so quiet you wouldn’t even know it’s running—except when the water drains into the garbage disposal. Dishes come out super clean and shiny every time!

We’re really enjoying our new dishwasher! We ditched the silverware basket and just use the top tray for utensils. Most of the time, everything comes out sparkling clean. It’s so efficient with space that we actually run out of clean dishes before it’s full. Definitely happy with it!

Bosch makes the best dishwashers, no question. They’re like the Toyota of dishwashers—built to last and done right from the start. It gets everything off my dishes except maybe concrete, and the drying is top-notch. It’s really quiet too. I was hoping for complete silence, but I can still hear it running. Not a big deal, though!

I really love how quiet this dishwasher is and how well it cleans. The top rack for utensils and flat items is a great feature too. My only gripe is the lack of a simple delay start button on the panel. Instead, you have to go through the Home Connect app to set a delay, which isn’t very convenient for me.

The dishwasher was packed perfectly, and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. I’d rate the installation a solid 9 out of 10. The feature that pops the door open after a cycle is pretty cool, and the app is a nice bonus too!

Time will tell if this one turns into a leaky nightmare like our last dishwasher, which didn’t even last seven years. But so far, I’m beyond impressed! It’s the easiest dishwasher I’ve ever loaded—tons of space, especially on the third rack. It’s also super quiet—so quiet that my wife thought the red light meant it was done because she couldn’t hear it running. Even with our hard water, it’s been doing a fantastic job cleaning. I really love that it pops the door open after the cycle, so I can usually unload the dishes sooner.

If I could change anything, I’d make the bottom front panel easier to remove in case of leaks, and I’d leave more space underneath for a water sensor (I’m a little paranoid after our last dishwasher disaster). Also, the water line connects way in the back, which could make leaks harder to spot. But overall, this thing is great!
