But the two brands have a lot in common otherwise.Ĭonsumer Reports has tested at least one model from each Bosch and Thermador tier. Thermador dishwashers put a greater emphasis on high-end looks than practical features, and cost much more than many Bosch models. We’ve included a rundown of Thermador dishwashers, too, because they’re manufactured by the same parent company as Bosch (BSH). Here’s a super-basic overview:Īscenta: The entry-level series, with solid performance but few featuresġ00 Series: Mostly similar to Ascenta, but some upgraded featuresģ00 Series: Quieter and more capacity-and often still under $1,000ĥ00 Series: Sharper look, faster drying, upgraded racksĨ00 Series: Style refinements, the best plastic drying, other tweaksīenchmark: A premium look and feel, minus some featuresīelow, we’ve put together a more detailed but still easy-to-scan overview of the important features that you’ll get as you step upward through each tier. But depending on what you want and need out of your dishwasher, the right Bosch for your kitchen can cost just a third of that price.īosch’s dishwasher lineup is grouped into six (mostly) well-organized tiers, and once you understand the structure, it’s much easier to find the best one for your needs and budget. Bosch’s flagship model sells for more than $2,000.
