Editorial note

The Bosch SMI68M06EP dishwasher stands out for its exceptional performance, offering a washing and drying class A that guarantees impeccable cleaning of your dishes. Its advanced features, such as the AquaStop function to prevent leaks and AquaSensor for optimal water detection, ensure safe and efficient use. With a noise level of only 44 dB, it operates quietly, making it ideal for small spaces. However, this model has some drawbacks. Although the cycle duration of 140 minutes is acceptable, it may seem long for those looking for a quick wash, despite the presence of a quick wash program. Additionally, the weight and dimensions of the appliance may complicate its installation in tight spaces, potentially requiring the help of a professional. The water consumption of 10 L per cycle may also be perceived as high by environmentally conscious users. In terms of user experience, the Bosch SMI68M06EP offers appreciated flexibility thanks to its 24-hour delayed start timer and a remaining time indicator, thus facilitating the management of usage time. However, improvements could be made to the documentation, as a 30-page manual, while useful, could be supplemented with more detailed information on optimizing use. Overall, the value for money of this appliance is satisfactory, making the Bosch SMI68M06EP a wise choice for families or group meals, thus reducing the frequency of washes.
