Manual of product SMS40M08EU
Editorial note
The Bosch SMS40M08EU dishwasher stands out for its optimal washing performance, benefiting from an A washing class that ensures impeccable cleanliness of the dishes. Its elegant stainless steel design integrates harmoniously into any type of kitchen while being easy to maintain. Additionally, the delayed start feature of up to 24 hours offers valuable flexibility for scheduling cycles according to your needs. The presence of the AquaStop function enhances safety by preventing water leaks. However, there are a few drawbacks to consider. The noise level of 48 dB, while reasonable, may be perceived as disturbing in a very quiet environment, especially during nighttime washing cycles. Furthermore, the cycle time of 140 minutes may seem long for those seeking a quick wash. With a capacity of 13 place settings, this model may prove insufficient for larger households or for events where there is a significant amount of dishes to wash. The absence of interior lighting in the dishwasher can complicate loading and unloading, and although it has several interesting features, a greater selection of washing programs could cater to specific needs. Overall, the Bosch SMS40M08EU offers good value for money, but it is essential to consider its limitations based on your household's needs.Score details
