Editorial note
The Bosch SMA46IX02E dishwasher stands out for its high energy efficiency, with an A+++ rating that helps reduce electricity consumption. Its heat exchanger drying system ensures quick and optimal results while preserving the quality of the dishes. With a capacity of 13 place settings, this appliance is ideal for families or gatherings, allowing for a large amount of dishes to be washed at once. Additionally, practical features like the delayed start of up to 24 hours and the load sensor offer appreciated flexibility in use. The noise level of 44 dB allows for pleasant use, even in open spaces or at night. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The weight of 35.4 kg can make the installation and movement of the appliance difficult, potentially requiring the help of several people. Furthermore, the maximum washing cycle duration of 235 minutes may seem long for those seeking a quick wash. Although the noise level is relatively quiet, it could be perceived as disturbing in very quiet environments, especially at night. Finally, the limited number of washing programs (6) may not be sufficient for users looking for more flexibility, and the annual water consumption of 2660 L may be considered high compared to other models. In terms of scores, the user experience is very satisfactory, with a rating of 85, thanks to intuitive features. Performance is rated at 78, while the modern and integrated design receives a score of 80. The value for money is good with a score of 75, although water consumption is a question mark. Robustness is rated at 70, reflecting the challenges related to its weight, while the interesting features, although limited, score 82. Support is excellent with a score of 90, and the provided documentation is complete and clear, with a rating of 85. Overall, the Bosch SMA46IX02E is a solid choice for those looking for an efficient, modern, and practical dishwasher, despite some limitations to consider.Score details
