Description:
The SHX9PT55UC shows off a SpeedPerfect cycle option, designed to reduce the wash-time by as much as 40%, but it will probably consume a little more water, at least for the Normal wash, while it also washes smaller, lightly-soiled loads with its Half Load cycle option, which uses less water and energy.
That being said, it counts itself among the more-silent Bosch dishwashers, as it is furnished with a significantly-below-average 39-dBA noise rating, which actually almost nudges the lowest-end of our table.
