Editorial note
The Bosch SMI46IS15E dishwasher stands out for its high energy efficiency, with an A++ rating that allows for savings on electricity and water bills. Its water consumption per cycle of only 9.5 L and its low energy consumption of 0.92 kWh are undeniable assets for environmentally conscious users. Additionally, its quiet operation, with a noise level of 42 dB, makes it an ideal choice for households looking to minimize noise disturbances. This model offers great flexibility thanks to its capacity of 13 place settings and its Bosch VarioFlex cutlery basket, making it easier to organize the dishes. Advanced safety features, such as the AquaStop function and child safety lock, enhance peace of mind during use. The ability to program a delayed start of up to 24 hours also provides appreciated convenience in time management. However, there are some drawbacks to note. The cycle time of 240 minutes may seem long for those who need quick washes, and the weight of 42 kg can complicate installation.

Additionally, the annual water consumption of 2660 L could raise concerns for users mindful of their environmental impact. Overall, the Bosch SMI46IS15E offers solid washing performance and a modern design, but some users may find desirable improvements in terms of speed and variety of programs.Score details
