Manual of product SMS68MI06E
Editorial note
The Bosch SMS68MI06E dishwasher stands out for its high energy efficiency, with an A++ rating and a water consumption of only 9.5 L per cycle. This not only allows for savings on water and electricity bills but also contributes to environmental preservation. Its modern stainless steel design, combined with a built-in touchscreen, adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen while optimizing space. Its capacity of 14 place settings is ideal for families and meals with friends, allowing for a large amount of dishes to be processed at once. The advanced features, such as various washing programs (Eco, Intensive, Night) and the AquaSensor function, perfectly adapt to the specific needs of users. Additionally, the delayed start of up to 24 hours and the remaining time indicator enhance the user-friendliness of the appliance. However, some drawbacks should be noted. The cycle time of 210 minutes may seem long for those who need clean dishes quickly. Furthermore, the lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits remote control options, which could disappoint users looking for fully connected appliances. Although the noise level of 44 dB is relatively low, it may be perceived as bothersome in open spaces or when used late at night. Finally, with a weight of 52.8 kg, the appliance can be difficult to handle and install without assistance. Overall, the Bosch SMS68MI06E offers good value for money, with features that meet the expectations of most users, despite a few limitations to consider.Score details
