Bosch Evolution 500 SHE45M05UC

Pros: Stainless steel tub, quiet operation, adjustable tines, spacious, attractive

Cons: No child-proof locking, fingerprint magnet

The Bottom Line: Although you can spend more than the approximate $800 price of this unit, it’s not obvious to me what you’d be getting for the higher price-tag.

Review: About a year and a half ago our contractor supplied GE Dishwasher started to give notice that its useful life was approaching its end. The soap dispenser would no longer stay closed, tines started breaking and finally the rotary cycle selector came off ...

Pros: Quiet, Reliable, Effective

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: Bosch has emerged as a major player that deserves a second look for your dishwashing dollar!

Review: Honda, Toyota, Hyundai all represent brands that have come to our shores offering an alternative to some of the better known brands that we have had working experience with. While there had been some trepidation on our part to jump ship and try a new ...

Pros: Best thing out of German engineering since the Beetle

Cons: Nothing yet, but will be sure to post any negatives we might run into.

The Bottom Line: If you want a quiet dishwasher for an open floor plan home, this is it. Oh, yeah--it cleans well, too.

Review: After building our new house and being supplied with a builders grade GE dishwasher, we decided to replace that sucker right away--it didn't clean and was so L O U D that we couldn't hear the TV in our adjoining living room. After reading the reviews, ...

Pros: Super quiet, clean dishes with no spots, flexible loading.

Cons: Slightly longer cycle times, so far that is it.

The Bottom Line: A definite buy and recommendation to others. So far very dependable, easy to use, great cleaning results, fits in well with our other stainless appliances - and very quiet

Review: We've had the SHE45 for 2 months now with really no complaints. We did fairly extensive research with on line input such as this site, other sites and talked to 3 dealers in our city and finally landed on this model - a nice compromise between the more ...

Pros: Great Dishwasher every thing is clean and spot free. even clear glass dishes.

Cons: Non really. have to turn it off when  unload or the lights stay on.

The Bottom Line: You'll be happy with clean dishes you can rely on being clean.No need to inspect every dish as you unload. Just put them away there clean. Well worth the money.

Review: This dishwasher is the best ever. I Bought this because I have had the Bosch washer and Dryer for about 2 years. Knowing how great they are I was set on a Bosch Dishwasher when the old one died. There are never any dirty dishes when its done. We have ...

Pros: Cleans well,extremely quiet

Cons: Runs best with JET DRY, longer cleaning cycles...

The Bottom Line: GOOD overall buy...

Review: We purchased the SHE45 when we did out kitchen. We did all out research ahead of time, including online reviews, consumer reports, store clerks and friends and families. Bosch is a high end product and is not sold at all stores. We had a concern ...

Pros: Attractive, quiet and cleans well

Cons: Worst service for any appliance that I have ever experienced

The Bottom Line: Great when it's working, but it's difficult to describe adequately just how incompetent the service is. If it breaks, you may never get it fixed. Proceed at your own risk.

Review: Bosch dishwashers are great as long as they are working. They are very quiet, and they clean the dishes well. Unfortunately, dishwashers break, and when Bosch dishwashers break they are extremely hard to get fixed. Mine has been broken for six ...
