Generally good results

As the single most expensive Bosch dishwasher available, I understandably expected great results. In general, that is the case. Having said that, it is still, after all, a dishwasher and it retains many of the shortcomings of all dishwashers. It is quiet, but clearly audible for much of the cycle. If bowls / pans /cups aren't carefully placed, they of course retain water and don't dry. And unless you pre-rinse items with any manner of sticky or clinging food, they will not come clean despite claims to the contrary. The racks (save for the upper, 3rd rack) do not inspire confidence - it's an aggravation to adjust them or flip the tines up or down, as the racks seem flimsy and move around when you apply any force to them. The unit will not turn itself off after a cycle - it stays on, beeping, apparently so that you know it's finished but the light on the floor going off serves that purpose. It doesn't have WiFi, surprisingly, some of the lower cost units do. The top controls are not illumiated - so while there's a nice hi res multicolor display, you need external lighting to see the top mounted controls enough to use them. The press and hold requirement for power is an annoyance - I have no idea why it's set up this way - so that it doesn't come on when you wipe off the controls?
On the positive side, the built in water softener is a great help with hard water. The third rack for utensils works quite well (so long as there's no food sticking to them). I like the rinse only cycle for when you don't have a full load and want to delay a day or two prior to wash. I generally get good, spot free cleaning on glassware and tableware.
Overall, I'd think you can likely get 75% or more of the features / performance of this model for 50% of the price with an 800 series unit (and WiFi!).

We absolutely are in love with our new dishwasher. It is so quiet that we actually have to go check to make sure that it is really running. This dishwasher outperforms our previous "top of the line" model by so much that it isn't even a contest. Don't try to take my Bosch away!

This is our 2nd Bosch dishwasher. The last one lasted more than 15 years and was still running. It needed a new thermostat, so we decided to get a new one. It is better and quieter than the first! We love it!
