Features:
PrecisionWash
With Bosch PrecisionWash, simply start your dishwasher and walk away. Intelligent sensors continually scan and check the progress of dishes throughout the cycle, and powerful, precision spray arms go to work targeting every item of every load. So when your dishes are done, so are you.
PureDry
PureDry is an energy-efficient, closed drying system that does not pull in outside air and gently whisks moisture away from dishes as they cool. And with no exposed heating element, you can safely place plastics anywhere.
24/7 AquaStop Plus
With the advanced leak prevention and containment systems of AquaStop, AquaStop Plus features an additional hose surrounding the water inlet hose for added protection.
RackMatic
RackMatic easily adjusts to three different heights and up to nine separate rack positions, allowing taller items like stemware to fit in the middle rack while leaving room for pots and pans below.
Custom Panel Dishwashers
Seamlessly integrate your Bosch custom panel dishwasher into your kitchen by matching it to your kitchen’s custom cabinetry. The unique design allows for a fully flush install for a refined level of sophistication.

📌 Conclusion

It delivers strong wash quality, safe drying, and smart-home convenience—all backed by Bosch’s reliable engineering and safety features like AquaStop Plus.
The trade-offs are its smaller capacity, fewer cycle options, and the lack of a third rack. For smaller households, secondary kitchens, or accessible installations, this model fits beautifully. However, if you need larger capacity, more wash cycles, or extra loading flexibility, consider stepping up to the 500 or 800 Series.
