Now in use for almost 3 months: runs once every 2 days (mainly at night). Bought as a replacement for a Bosch SGV09T03EU/01 that lasted just under 20 years (with only 1 repair of the heating element; now the flush pump turned out to be defective). Searched in the price segment up to 600 Euro and hoped that a Bosch with the same installation dimensions could be replaced 1-on-1 (installation manual viewed in advance). However, I was not able to install the appliance in accordance with the manual (and still had to adjust the plinth), but perhaps that is because my kitchen was made by a carpenter using different dimensions compared to standard kitchens from large chains. Because there are sufficient mounting materials and options, the appliance is now stable and with the front neatly aligned with the surrounding cabinets, but not clamped against the underside of the countertop. Because I had already visited the Bosch website for the installation instructions, I knew that there were accessories for sale that I could still keep from the previous model: cutlery basket, spray nozzle for baking trays and filling funnel for salt. I still use the (removable) cutlery basket instead of the cutlery drawer at the top (but for long cutlery), because the kitchen drawer with cutlery is a few meters from the dishwasher and this means less walking back and forth when unloading. Cutlery is cleaned well in the cutlery drawer at the top. The detergent dispenser opens via a sliding door instead of a hinged door as with the previous model. This means that the door can never be blocked by dishes. Furthermore, the upper basket has a recess (handle) into which the detergent falls without ending up directly on the dishes. Even though I use all-in-one dishwasher detergent, I discovered after the trial package from Finish that a little bit of rinse aid prevents the dishes from becoming dull. I don't use salt because I have a water softener. The device is much easier to set up via the Home Connect app than via the (push) buttons in the door. You can also download additional programs with the app and compile a favorite program via a wizard and save it under a free test. You will immediately see the expected water and energy consumption. Notifications about rinse aid, salt and machine maintenance are (also) received there. Remote starting is possible, but in my opinion it only makes sense if you have been able to load in advance, add detergent, close the door and ensure that it can be done safely. You can also integrate the device into a smart home environment, so that you can, for example, run it when there is cheap (solar) power (can't try it yourself). At the end of most programs, the door opens automatically to ventilate and speed up drying. All dishes that are placed at an angle enough (so that the water can run off) are then thoroughly dry (including plastic). It is also noticeable that the device has less stainless steel and more plastic in the interior than its predecessor. Apparently there is no reason for Bosch to doubt the lifespan, because after registration (within 2 months) on their website, the warranty against rusting of the tub is simply extended to 10 years. The baskets run less smoothly than with the previous model, possibly because the rails are made of thinner material; Opening and closing with some policy is necessary to prevent jamming. The device weighs about 13 kilos less than its 20-year-old predecessor and I think that has to come from somewhere.

Works well. Plastic bottom does not radiate quality. Takes some getting used to
