Reviews of the Bosch SMS40D12RU dishwasher

dishwasher Bosch SMS40D12RU reviews Few people can afford a full-size dishwasher, but if they make this choice, then there is probably enough space for it. Wide Bosch machines are especially popular, but despite the German brand and size, their price is not much different from narrow and compact models. As for the quality of washing and reliability, we will try to find out about this from user reviews using the Bosch SMS40D12RU dishwasher as an example.

Machine characteristics

First of all, let’s briefly look at its main characteristics in order to have an idea about the machine. The SMS40D12RU model is free-standing, which means that the front decorative door and the top cover are already on the machine, the whole body is in a classic white color.

The machine's capacity is 12 sets, the washing of which requires 14 liters of water and 1.05 kW/h of energy using the standard program. At the same time, there are only 4 programs, and 3 temperature modes. Additional functions include:

3 in 1 tool recognition;
delay up to 24 hours;
complete protection against water leaks;
rinse aid and salt indicators;
sensor that determines the purity of water.

The noise level reaches 52 dB, which is quite noisy, comparable to a washing machine.

People's opinions about technology

Koreshkov Yuri

I can’t raise my hand to give this washing machine 5 points, I can’t give it more than 2. The manufacturer claims 4 modes, but in fact they are all the same. With the Eco program, the powder is poorly rinsed. In normal mode, the dishes are more or less washed. Compare with the old one Whirlpool machine, which I had to leave behind when moving, which I really regret, it would have been better to take it.

So, this is my second Bosch SMS40D12RU dishwasher; it used to be a Zanussi. So this “Italian” did not cope well with pots and pans. And this washing machine is a miracle! Cleans much better, especially glass. Baking trays and pans are washed one at a time. The family is large, so the dishwasher is full, including baking trays. Just choose a good product, it’s better to be more expensive, they are of better quality.

We bought this washing machine from MVideo for a low price. Several washes were fine; we chose the 30-minute mode. Six months have passed and now the machine has stopped handling soup bowls on a short program; now we turn it on at night for 2 hours 35 minutes. We don’t know what affected the quality of washing.

We recently discovered that the door doesn't close well, but it can be fixed. In principle, it is an inexpensive, good washing machine that makes moderate noise. A lot of dishes included!

Comment

I was against the dishwasher, but I saw one at a friend’s birthday party and wanted one too. After some time, the husband made a gift. After my birthday, I started testing it in practice, and I was pleased with the result. So many dishes have been washed in a short time that there is still time to chat with friends and mind your own business. I recommend!

I didn't find anything special about this washing machine. The set of cycles is minimal. The build quality is not very good. The thing is, a year later the drain pump broke down, repairing which costs half the cost of the washing machine. There was an Electrolux dishwasher, which also worked for a year. I don't trust these brands anymore.

I like this dishwasher, because it cleaned the grill grate, the first time and after being dirty for about a week. In short, you are guaranteed clean dishes, but not dry ones, since the machine does not dry well.To achieve a good result, you will have to open the door every time after washing. If you have a small kitchen, then an open door will obviously get in the way. But it depends, some people get used to it. What else pleased me was the quiet operation.

Lyudmila, Barnaul

My 60cm wide dishwasher is about a year old. I appreciate her very much and am quite pleased with her. Not everything is as perfect as I would like, but I'm not upset. For example, fat is not immediately washed off from skewers or frying pans. I note that a lot will depend on the detergent. I give preference to tablets, of which I tried a lot, and settled on the Sun company. Good luck with your choice.

Maria, Kostroma

I have been the owner of a dishwasher for a week now. For the first time in my life I had this technique. As for the wash, it's just great. Of course, dishes with old grease were not washed immediately. However, if you rub a sponge on still hot objects taken out immediately after stopping the machine, then everything comes off. It’s also difficult to rinse the pan after stewing potatoes, but on the other hand, this is washing, not cleaning, it doesn’t have brushes. And one more thing, not all plastic cups dry well, but for me this is a minor thing. I still give it 5 points.

Grigorieva Tatyana, Mozyr

Of course, I’ll start with the advantages, the most important of which is saving personal time. Well, only then can I mention convenient controls. There is no limit to the joy of this purchase; I wasn’t even as happy about the food processor in the kitchen as I was about the dishwasher. I take out the dishes that are clean, free of chemical odors and dirt. The washing machine is also Bosch, so I trust this company.

Grigorieva Snezhana, Moscow

The Bosch dishwasher can hold a lot of dishes. At 45 degrees, it washes almost everything, but if you need to wash something super dirty, then there is a mode at 70 degrees.Water consumption is much less than hand washing, so you don’t have to worry about it. This manufacturer has cooler washing machine models with all sorts of additional functions, but their price is appropriate. This machine attracted me with its price, has positive reviews online, and I think its quality is not bad.

So, we can stop there, most of the reviews we read are positive. People like not just the appliances of this brand, but also this particular dishwasher. We hope this review will be useful to you.
