Editorial note

The Bosch SMS40M12EE dishwasher stands out for its high energy efficiency, rated A, which ensures reduced energy consumption while providing good washing performance. Its integrated and modern design in white adds a touch of elegance to the kitchen while optimizing space. With a capacity of 13 place settings and 4 washing programs, it easily adapts to the needs of families and meals with friends. Safety features, such as the AquaStop and AquaSensor systems, enhance peace of mind during use. However, this model has some drawbacks. The noise level of 51 dB, while acceptable, may be perceived as slightly high in a quiet environment, which could bother some users. Additionally, the limited number of washing programs and the water consumption per cycle of 14 L may pose a problem for those seeking increased efficiency or who are environmentally conscious. The lack of interior lighting also makes it less convenient to use in low-light conditions. Overall, the Bosch SMS40M12EE offers a satisfactory user experience, but it could benefit from improvements in terms of flexibility and features. The value for money is reasonable, although some aspects may not suit all users. The available user manual is helpful, but it could be clearer to facilitate product handling.
