According to our dishwasher expert
After a great dinner, the Bosch SMV88TX36E can do your dishes in a silent and energy-efficient way. This built-in dishwasher has an A+++ energy label and only has a noise level of 42 decibels, so the dishwasher won't bother you when its running. With the Home Connect app, you can put the dishwasher on whenever you want. The dishwasher has a flexible layout, so you can determine how you want to organize the dishwasher. This way, all the dishes of an elaborate dinner will fit in. You even won't need to wash the large pans and ovenproof dishes by hand any more. If you don't have the app available, the floor projection will show how much time it'll take before the dishes are done. This way, you'll know exactly when you'll have clean dishes again.

Washing result
We have been using this dishwasher for a month now and it washes and dries excellently! Bought because our previous Pelgrim built-in dishwasher broke after 15 years. It's exactly the same as the Siemens SX678X36TE, but we were able to get it for less. The Zeolite mineral seems to work fine, because indeed the dishes are excellently dry, yes also plastic, even with the eco program. The eco program takes about 4 hours, but that's fine: we let it wash overnight. Drying time is also included. In addition, there are many other programs and also a program shortening function (hotter, more sound and more water consumption). The times he has washed during the day, we noticed how quiet he is in the eco mode, and then there is also a 'quiet' mode; it is indeed almost inaudible. With a 'firmer' program there is significantly more sound. The lighting turns out to be surprisingly pleasant, especially because the baskets are not white in color: a trend with most modern dishwashers; The layout is also remarkably clever: almost everything on the baskets is adjustable: the plate holders; the depth of the cutlery drawer; the height of the upper basket. Also very nice is a fold-down rack at the back of the lower basket: it serves as a holder for tall wine glasses and can also hold dishes or a ladle. To our surprise, there was also a separate Bosch wine glass holder, but because of the rack we have not used it yet. Compared to a cutlery basket, the cutlery drawer takes some getting used to: it takes more time to organize the cutlery, but if you do it in an orderly manner, you can fit a lot in it and clearing it out takes less time than with a cutlery basket. You can also store small items in the cutlery drawer, such as caps and small dishes. As for the app: it was included and I thought that wouldn't add much, but that also surprised me: it turns out that you can do settings in the app for which you normally have to press all kinds of complicated buttons, with the manual included. You can simply choose those settings in the app. The tablet counter is also a nice extra, although not very useful: you indicate how many tablets you have, and the app then counts down, whereby the color of the tablet icon changes from green to orange to red. In terms of interface, there is still work to be done: it is somewhat dated and not so clear. What is also a pity is that you can only switch on the dishwasher with the app, if you press the Home-connect button before closing the lid. This has to be done every time after you have opened the valve again. I suspect that's a security measure: a hacker can never operate your dishwasher without physical access to the appliance. After that you can set some things in the app, such as a delayed start, more easily than with the buttons, The luxurious TFT screen provides clear information, which makes it easier to operate without an app. The valve opens and closes smoothly.

Had high expectations of this more than 1000 euro dishwasher. Looks like a modern copy of our previous Siemens in terms of layout. However, the washing result is significantly worse. Oven dishes do not get clean, they must first soak in warm water for a long time. Dishes that do not go into the dishwasher the same day are also not cleaned properly. The new drying system with Zeolith would dry even plastic items well. This is just not true. Plastic plates and cups remain wet and still need to be dried before they can be put in the cupboard.

We are disappointed with the purchase of this dishwasher. One of the motivations for buying this was the use of the cutlery tray at the top and therefore the extra space in the bottom tray. This in combination with the adjustment options of the trays. However, after a wash, we had caked-on dirt residues on the glasses and cups in the central tray. After removing the cutlery tray as a test and placing the cutlery basket of the old Bosch in the lower tray again, the dishes in the central tray were suddenly a lot cleaner. No more caked-on dirt residues. So we can't really use the entire cutlery tray if we want clean dishes. Way space advantage.
The drying result of this machine is actually worse than with the old machine (also a Bosch). This is both disappointing and misleading as the description mentions the "revolutionary" Zeolite technique which should yield better drying results. Just appears to be sales text. We now, more than with the previous machine, still have layers of water and drops on the cups and glasses after a wash.
Finally, the machine does not work in combination with the HomeConnect app. The connection keeps dropping and then you have to go through the entire registration procedure via the network every time. Time consuming and annoying. This is of the least importance to us, as the machine also works without the app. Still, if it's there, it should work.
