Bosch 24" Black Built-in Dishwasher - SHE53C86N/01

This is a premium, 24-inch built-in dishwasher from the Bosch 300 Series, recognized for its exceptionally quiet operation, thorough cleaning performance, and durable construction. It comes in a sleek black finish.

Key Characteristics:

• Type: Built-in Dishwasher, designed for permanent installation under your kitchen counter.

• Size: Standard 24-inch width, fitting common kitchen openings.

• Finish: Features a modern black exterior on the door and control panel, providing a consistent, clean look. It typically has an anti-fingerprint finish to keep it looking tidy.

• Controls: Has front controls. The electronic controls and display are located on the visible front panel of the door, allowing for easy access and monitoring during operation.

• Tub Material: The entire interior tub is made of durable stainless steel. This premium material resists odors and stains, and efficiently retains heat to aid in the drying process.

• Capacity: It's quite spacious, accommodating up to 16 place settings, making it suitable for larger family meals or entertaining.

• Sound Level: Operates at a remarkably low noise level, typically rated at 46 decibels (dBA). This makes it one of the quietest dishwashers available, allowing for quiet conversations or other activities in an open-concept kitchen without disruption.

Washing System & Performance Features:

• Intelligent Washing (PrecisionWash™): Uses internal sensors to continuously monitor the soil level of dishes throughout the cycle. Powerful, precision spray arms then target every item effectively, ensuring a thorough and sparkling clean.

• Wash Cycles: Offers a selection of 5 core wash programs, usually including options like:

  • Heavy for tough messes.

  • Auto (which automatically adjusts based on soil).

  • Economy (Eco) for energy savings.

  • Quick L (a Speed 60 cycle for lightly soiled loads in about an hour).

  • A "Favorite" program that can be customized.

• Wash Options: Includes several useful options:

  • Sanitize Option: Heats water to a high temperature to sanitize dishes, effectively reducing a high percentage of certain bacteria for hygienic results.

  • Extra Dry Option: Provides additional drying time for improved results, especially on plastics, by using higher temperatures during the rinse cycle and a longer drying phase.

  • Remote Start: If connected to Wi-Fi, allows you to start the dishwasher from your phone.

  • ChildLock (Button Suspension): Prevents accidental button presses or changes to settings.

• Leak Protection (AquaStop® Plus): A sophisticated 24/7 leak protection system. It features multiple sensors that detect any potential leaks in the base, providing advanced protection against water damage and peace of mind.

• Hidden Heating Element: The heating element is concealed beneath the tub floor, which means plastic items can be placed on any rack without risk of melting, and the interior is easier to clean.

• Five-Level Wash: Ensures comprehensive water coverage throughout the dishwasher.

Drying Features:

• PureDry® Drying System: An energy-efficient, closed drying system. Instead of relying on an exposed heating element that pulls in outside air, it gently removes moisture from dishes as they cool. This method is safe for all plastics. While effective, plastics may sometimes retain a minimal amount of moisture due to their material properties.

Racks and Loading Flexibility:

• Third Rack: Includes a standard third rack at the very top, providing a dedicated space for flatware, large utensils, and measuring cups. Its design often leaves room below for taller items like stemware.

• Adjustable Upper Rack (RackMatic®): The upper rack can be easily adjusted to three different heights and up to nine separate positions. This flexibility allows you to fit taller items like stemware or large plates in either the top or middle rack.

• Fold-Down Tines: Fold-down tines on the lower rack provide versatility for loading larger or unusually shaped items like pots and pans.

• Silverware Basket: A standard silverware basket is also included.

Convenience & Connectivity:

• Wi-Fi Connectivity (Home Connect™): This dishwasher is Wi-Fi enabled, allowing you to connect it to your home network. Through a smartphone app, you can remotely monitor the cycle status, start or pause washes, access additional programs, and receive notifications. It also works with voice assistants.

• Digital Display: Provides a countdown of the cycle time and status indicators on the front panel.

• Audible End-of-Cycle Signal: Notifies you when the wash is complete.

This Bosch dishwasher is a highly capable and exceptionally quiet appliance, offering excellent cleaning and drying capabilities with flexible loading, smart features, and a modern black finish, all designed for a convenient dishwashing experience.
