Editorial note

The Bosch SMI46IB15E dishwasher stands out for its high energy efficiency, with an A++ rating that helps reduce electricity costs and environmental impact. With a capacity of 13 place settings, it is ideal for families and meals with friends, ensuring effective cleaning even after large events. Its advanced features, such as a delayed start of up to 24 hours and a quick wash program of 60 minutes, offer flexibility and practicality. Additionally, the AquaStop safety system prevents water leaks, ensuring peace of mind during use, while its noise level of 42 dB allows for quiet operation. However, the cycle time of 240 minutes may seem long for users in a hurry. Although the energy efficiency is satisfactory, the annual consumption of 262 kWh could be considered high by some. Furthermore, the capacity of 13 place settings may not be sufficient for large families or those who frequently entertain, and the lack of a 30-minute wash program may limit options for quick cleaning. Finally, with a weight of 41 kg, installing and moving the appliance may require the assistance of another person. Overall, the Bosch SMI46IB15E offers excellent value for money, supported by features that enhance the user experience. Its stainless steel construction ensures durability and resistance, while the available documentation, although comprehensive, could be simplified for better understanding. A more developed online support would also be beneficial for users.
