Description:
The SHP53T55UC, by Bosch, also prefers to show its washing status via the InfoLight feature, which projects a red beam of light onto the kitchen floor while the cycle is still running, and it attempts to minimize water usage with its water-quality sensor, which checks how dirty the wash water is and determines if a new water fill is needed. Also, it pulls down a 46-dBA noise rating, which is slightly-below-middling, but can still be considered a little bit on the rather-noisy side by Bosch standards.
