Great dishwasher – We have had ours now for 10 years and its an excellent machine. We had one electrical issue within the first month, but was promptly fixed under warranty. Never had an issue with fascia like others have had. Our fascia is looking worn however, and we are looking at renewing our kitchen, so i might see if i can get a new fascia so i can keep the machine! Our machine has survived daily use with 2 kids using it as well. Glad i paid extra and got the model that was made in the fatherland!!
Purchased in for $1,300.
Fantastic Machine! Even if it does break after 10 years – I have now had this dishwasher for 10 years and it has been a great machine, always cleaning dishes very well and very easy to use. Like many other people my front fascia broke because the point where you open it is too far away from the screws that hold it in place and hence after many uses the plastic fascia clips fail and crack. I called Bosch spares and they did have the part in stock and shipped it to me in 3 days for a reasonable $143.
When it arrived it was quite easy to replace (with help from YouTube) by myself in about 30 mins. The fact they still stock this part after 10 years I think is great (Bosch must know this is a high replacement part).
Overall a great dishwasher which still looks as good as it did when we first bought it!

Wouldwork perfectly IF we could get the part – Hi, We loved our dishwasher until the control fascia panel broke, making it nearly impossible to open. .Bosh has told me they no longer make that part, leaving us with no option but to throw a really good machine into landfill. Not very environmentally friendly!!!!! If anyone has any suggestions as to how to fix it please let me know,I'm willing to put on a second hand, knockoff, or different coloured part if I can find one.

Dont Buy Bosch – I have not been happy since day 1; the basket broke and was never replaced even with 6 years extended warranty. The response from service is slow or nonexistent. Parts are plastic; they easily break and there is no dedicated service in Australia.Service is terrible and outsourced not Bosch.The front facia panel is plastic and has broken twice.
It never washed well either. Older versions were great and they go on their past history.
Now it is old but I have provided feedback since 2012
Buy Miele where you can reply on service in Australia.
Not happy – I think this is the correct model - has cutlery tray rather than basket ? Purchased 3 years ago for $1500 Lots of error messages and the stainless steel door has rusted. Dishwasher now at the tip - it died and the repair quote was $1200. Took me weeks to find anybody prepared to look at it and when they came I had to pay $150 call out fee. Needless to say I have purchased another brand. A very expensive lemon.
