All Bosch 45 cm built-in dishwashers are designed and manufactured to save space, time, health and user strength. Consider the features of such devices, compare popular models and figure out how to choose your own.

The benefits of narrow Bosch dishwashers

Like other devices from a German company, narrow dishwashers are reliable and have a good build quality, so the manufacturer gives them a 2-year warranty.

The cameras are made of durable, corrosion-resistant, environmentally friendly stainless steel. The case material is impact-resistant plastic, and it is not afraid of mechanical damage.

The devices have a different design, it is easy to choose a model for a certain style of interior. But the appliances are designed to be embedded in countertops, kitchen cabinets, and other pieces of furniture.

Outside, only a hinged door is visible, which can be decorated with a furniture panel.

General characteristics of the models:

  • The class of washing, drying, energy consumption is A. This means that the devices wash dishes very efficiently, and consume only about 1 kW per hour of operation.
  • Narrow models are cheaper full-size options.
  • The technology of washing with very hot water allows you to remove from the dishes not only dirt, food and detergent, but also bacteria.
  • Water consumption is 3 times less than when washing dishes with hands.

The compact appliance processes 9-10 sets of dishes in one cycle. 1 set implies 2 plates (shallow and deep), 2 saucers, a salad bowl and 4 spoons or forks.

The disadvantages of small devices

In a narrow Bosch built-in dishwasher with a width of 45 cm, large dishes cannot be washed: trays, pans, pans. Users often buy such models for a summer residence or a country house.

Another minus - the panel is located on the end of the loading door, it is not visible if the machine is closed. But this turns into an advantage if there are small children at home. Hidden buttons do not make a small person want to experiment.

Consideration of modes and functionality

The first parameter is the number of programs. It affects the price and features. Pre-soaking, rinsing, intensive washing will be useful to remove dried mud.

    Bosch is a good quality technique. How many did not come across this company, the equipment always served for a long time and without any problems. Now there is a need to buy a dishwasher and I am inclined specifically to Bosch. The question is whether the 45 cm model will be enough for a family of 4 people (2 children) or is it better to take a full-sized one? The built-in dishwasher fits very well in our kitchen, and for a full-sized 60 cm you have to come up with something.

      Just with a size of 45, you will include it in lunch and in the evening)))) 60, there is a chance that once a day, but not a fact) if you cook yourself, it’s still typed, then you will load half of 60 a second time )

      Hello. In general, the question is individual and it’s problematic to say how you will feel better. There are families in which they eat a lot and often, using a large number of cutlery, there are “little ones”, there are those who spend most of their time at work, at school, in sections, eating there.

      45 cm Bosch, accommodates 10 sets of cutlery, 60 cm - 12. In principle, there isn’t such a big difference, but just 3 downloads with 3 meals a day, and if guests arrive, it will be quite noticeable. In my opinion, it is better to find the extra 15 cm in the quadrature of the kitchen and put the dishwasher at 60 cm.

    Used and Bosch, and Siemens premium - Siemens washes better. On Bosch, stains on knives, and the remnants of food are often even at a temperature of 70, and Siemens washed 35 to a shine and there were no traces of drops. I wonder why so, so far ....
