Editorial note

The Bosch SMS46KI03E dishwasher stands out with its elegant stainless steel design, which harmoniously integrates into various kitchen decors, bringing a modern touch to your space. With a capacity of 13 place settings, it is ideal for large families or meals with friends. Practical features such as the salt indicator and rinse aid indicator enhance everyday use, providing an overall positive user experience. However, this model has some drawbacks. The lack of Wi-Fi functionality limits modern connectivity, which may be a disadvantage for some users eager to control their appliance remotely. Additionally, the dishwasher does not have a water softener, which could affect washing performance and the longevity of appliances in areas with hard water. The cycle time of 210 minutes may also be considered relatively long, which may not suit users in a hurry. Finally, its weight of 52.6 kg can make installation more difficult without assistance, and the absence of a half-load function could lead to water and energy waste during partial washes.
