Bosch Evolution 500 - A Fast Evaluation

For whatever cause, Kenmore has decided not to renew their contract with Bosch. So I began researching their other dishwashers. I was searching for one that gave exactly the same functions and was in exactly the same cost range as the original Kenmore Elite version.

As described in my other post, Bosch uses a tripod-leveling system, which tends to make it a lot much less aggravating to location the dishwasher in position. The front kick plate is removed and the dishwasher is slid into location. Subsequent, the installer will spin down the front legs, and turn the leveling screw. The average time to do this really is much less than a minute!

It is important to make sure that the opening this dishwasher is being placed into is 34 inches from the completed floor towards the under-edge of the cabinet. In contrast to other dishwashers, you aren't able to cut off the wheels in the event you need that little bit extra. So, measurements are critical.

All bosch evolution 500 dishwashers have stainless steel racks that are coated with nylon. Nylon is more durable than a rubber coating, which eliminates rust forming at places exactly where the coating has worn thin. The stainless steel rack eliminates the chance of rust developing on a broken tine. Racks can price $100 -$400, so this really is a major cash saver.

This model also has four sets of flip-down tines on the upper and lower rack. The upper rack can be raised or lowered, using the levers located on the outside of the rack. This enables for greater flexibility when faced with various sized items. I suggest purchasing a model using the levers, because the other models either don't move or have to be manually raised and lowered, which tends to make it a bit more difficult if needing to adjust the rack while loaded with dishes.

The interior of the tub is made of stainless steel. This helps with the sound control as well as the drying of the dishes. It is much more durable than the plastic tubs. Also, if you are preparing installing under granite countertops, dishwashers with stainless steel interiors are the ones which are recommended. The reason for this really is because plastic dishwashers can only be installed in the top, and stainless may be installed at the top or sides. Sadly, some contractors will shim or glue your plastic dishwasher into location and this makes it difficult to repair.

Quietness is really a main requirement when buying most appliances. This specific Bosch dishwasher is rated at 48 dBa. Raindrops have a dBa of 40. Envision a dishwasher that's nearly as quiet as a raindrop!
