Editorial note
The Bosch SMI4HCS48E dishwasher stands out with its capacity of 14 place settings, making it ideal for families or when dining with friends. Its practical features, such as the AquaStop function that prevents water leaks, as well as the timer with a delayed start of up to 24 hours, provide a secure and flexible user experience. Additionally, its heat exchanger drying system optimizes energy efficiency while ensuring effective drying results. The noise level of 44 dB is acceptable for daily use, although it may be noticeable in very quiet environments. However, this model also has some drawbacks. The cycle time of 295 minutes may be long for those seeking quick dishwashing. Furthermore, the lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits its integration with other smart devices. The energy efficiency class D may not suit environmentally conscious consumers, and the weight of 35.3 kg makes installation less convenient. Regarding ratings, the user experience is rated positively with a score of 80, while performance is rated at 70 due to the cycle time. The design receives a score of 75 thanks to its modern stainless steel aesthetic, although its weight is a disadvantage. The value for money is rated at 65, reflecting mixed expectations regarding energy efficiency. Finally, usability and robustness receive respective scores of 85 and 80, highlighting the product's durability and suitability for family use. In summary, the Bosch SMI4HCS48E is a high-performing and practical dishwasher, suitable for families, but could benefit from improvements regarding cycle time and energy efficiency.Score details
