Description:
The Bosch SHE4AV55UC shoots for reduced water consumption with its AquaSensor, which checks the quality of the wash-water to determine if the rinse cycle needs to continue, and it checks out with a 48-dBA noise rating, which is already a bit on the rather-noisy side, but only when compared to a lot of Bosch dishwashers. Also, it does not necessarily lead the pack when it comes to speed-washing, as its shortest wash-cycle time is 60 minutes, which is higher than the average in our books.
Also called Bosch SHE4AV52UC, Bosch SHE4AV56UC.
