A trick with the Jet Dry bottle. Put your finger over the opening, turn the bottle down over the jet dry compartment, then remove your finger. Place your finger over the opening when you want to turn it upright. No spill.
Just bought a 300 and installed it and has a wired burning unique chemical smell have run empty multiple times and still have this odour like tar or plastic smell ..? Anyone else have this issue or notice this upon installing a new Bosch Dishwasher?
Just got a Bosch 800 DW and this was such a perfect video to watch. Exhaustively reviews all features, even step-by-step through install and the mobile app. Awesome stuff
Thank you for that info. I was lucky enough to buy my Bosch from Costco, so have their added warranty on that. After that will be on my own. But isn't that the case with all appliances....:(
Thanks for the review. Very helpful since our 15 year old GE Monogram just died. Costco sells this unit for $1,150 including installation and haul away of our old dishwasher. I'm leaning hard in this direction!
thank you for this informative video. Your voice is also very clear. It was nice to see real life issues like the wine glass rack and the tall glass cup fitting.
Came here from the GE Combo video. This is another great video! One can tell that you've thoroughly informed yourself. And even the installation, while more involved than on the Bosch dishwashers over here, is done perfectly. As you've probably figured out by now, you don't need to empty the rack to adjust the height. I guess it's easier to refill the rinse aid if you your unscrew the bottle's cap. Now all you'll need to do is grab a GoPro and be the first to film that new bottom spray arm in action. 😉 Greetings from Germany.
Thanks. We emptied the rack for the footage and because we didnt know how much everything would weigh when we released it. The gopro would be a cool idea in the machine.
I have, basically, the same machine. Um, it's not without its problems. The impeller clogs too often, and only someone who is "handy" will actually be able to fix the issue. "Stuff" somehow gets by the filter. You'll get a "clog" code at some point. You better be prepared to fix this yourself, or pay the price to have some repair guy come out and fix what only takes 10 minutes to remedy. Also, the top aerator housing drooped down on my unit, causing the aerator to get stuck (not spin). A few zip ties fixed this issue, but it shouldn't be a problem. Also, the plastic housing on the side gets so hot that it will delaminate or damage the side of your cupboard. You'll only notice this if you have to remove your dishwasher at some point. Anyways, other than these issue, my dishwasher has been decent. Can't say any better than my old Maytag, but decent. It's definitely quieter. :)
Great video, great accent. Questions: can two people get alerts or make adjustments on their own phones/devices, or will the app work with only one person? Is using the app the only way one will have access to all the settings options or are these also available on the panel e.g. deeper in the menu somewhere? Is there an option not to use the wifi option altogether? I may decide not to. I originally used ot for my washing machine but the constant alerts were too much and I turned it off. Do you happen to know if the auto door opening option can be either turned off or adjusted to open at a later time if the hot steam has a negative effect on painted cabinetry to either side of the dishwasher? I know there's a protective seal at the top but one review implied she got damage on the cabinetry or paint on both sides of her 800 series dishwasher from that hot steam. Have you found that your machine jiggles around and doesn't feel super stable and firm in place? That was another negative review (amidst mostly positive reviews). Last Q: how are you liking your machine at this point in time? Thanks so much! Anyone else with the 800 can feel free to answer as well! :)
It is hard to see what type of fill line you are using. The most common type in the USA is a stainless steel or white flex line which is the dishwasher version of a garden hose. Since it has a washer in it, no sealant is necessary. It is unlikely that a stiff copper line or equivalent plastic would be very easy for the average homeowner to install, and in fact no 3rd party installer will connect to copper these days, or use any power other than an outlet.
Nice video👌..As a 5years Bosch user Im really satisfied with my serie8 super silence plus dishwasher but there is something alittle frustrating about the ceiling shower..I think that Bosch should revise It..I believe that an arm can be more powerful and efficient than that spinning thing..that thing cant cover all the third rack especially the items located at the corners to wash properly..anyway..I have a question..I found that your dishwasher has not a salt reservoir..has it?..I cant see the reservoir cap.
I bought a Bosch 800 dishwasher 4 years ago. Worked great untill 3 weeks ago. It started throwing E07 codes,the zeolite fan code. I called Bosch with the problem. They said the fan needed to be replaced. It took 2 weeks to get the service guy to come out and when he got here he didn’t bring any parts with him. Looked at it and found the zeolite container was bad and had melted a piece of plastic that runs down the center of the washer. Part of the parts were covered under some recall but the repair is still costing me over $500! A high end washer that costs $1200 shouldn’t have service issues after only 4 years! If you’re considering a Bosch think twice about it. I live alone and only use it once every 2 days,it’s not like I’m using it to death.
We also bought a Bosch 800 series dishwasher about 3 1/2 years ago. It worked well until 3 weeks ago when it showed a E07 code. A repairman came and gave us an estimate of $700 for parts and labor. We have always thought Bosch dishwashers were fantastic until this experience . We just ordered a Miele dishwasher with a FREE five year warranty. I don’t think we’ll buy a Bosch dishwasher again.
@@janmcclelland8935 You can graph how easily you can get service for an appliance, with domestic brands like Whirlpool or Frigidaire on one end, then Samsung/Lg maybe in the middle, and then Miele all the way at the other end. When buying a less common brand, it would be wise to do a search online and find out how many companies can service it in your town. As for Bosch, they have factory service in some cities, and then leave it up to contractors in other cities. In my experience, there are a lot of servicers out there that will work on Bosch.
Just had to replace our Bosch 800 dishwasher after 8.5 years. Disappointed with the quality. Replacing with Miele, wanted higher quality. Time will tell if I'm right. Miele provided a 5 year warranty. Special limited time offer.
@@Painfulwhale360 , we love it! Quiet, Cleans perfectly. A few adjustable features to it that make getting everything in easier. We have noticed that it is best to leave the washer closed up, like over night, to complete drying, otherwise, there are some plastics that are still wet (like inside the edge of a lid).
Thank you. I was so confused with the Bosch options because the new models don’t have extra features displayed on the panel. This explains it. Very informative.
I didn't see any 6-month report given in this video - what has been your experience after 6 months? What issues have you encountered and would you recommend this dishwasher after 6 months of use?
Because this was purchased due to a machine failure it was not scheduled and became an unboxing. In time I will have such commentary in a subsequent video.
Does anyone have any clue what this is called in Germany? I cannot find the series 800 in any stores. Is it the same as serie 8? Apparently it’s not popular here 😢

@@retrotechandelectronics On my 800 series Bosch there's a screw off cap on the bottom of the tub that you put dishwasher salt in to. It keeps your dishwasher from getting clogged up with mineral deposits if you have hard water.
VERY curious about the water softener!!! We just installed our Bosch 800 yesterday. I’ve had a Bosch for 14 years, but moved to a different state with very hard water. We are midway through your great video. I paused as hubby wants to see the filter part. ( as he’s cleaning hard water deposits in the back of kitchen sink- stuff he noticed during install)
Thanks for that link! but that summary PDF doesn't explain what the letters/numbers in the model numbers mean. There are several different 300 and 800 models out there.
@@omidnoroozian The only difference between the model in this video and the SHX78B75UC is the latter has a built-in water softener, which the model in this video does not have.

Just bought a 300 and installed it and has a wired burning unique chemical smell have run empty multiple times and still have this odour like tar or plastic smell ..? Anyone else have this issue or notice this upon installing a new Bosch Dishwasher?
read it is from the fabric insulation and should dissipate with time or so they claim
@@bugsy2902 yeah it seems to have dissipated now
Beware of their warranty. They didn’t honor a $550 repair for me.
Details?
