Editorial note

The Bosch SPI2HKS42E dishwasher stands out for its compact and integrated design, ideal for small spaces while adding a modern touch to your kitchen. With practical features such as adjustable placement baskets and a delayed start, it offers a pleasant and flexible user experience. Additionally, its water softener contributes to the durability of the installations and enhances user comfort, while its quiet operation at 46 dB allows it to be used without excessive noise disturbances. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The energy efficiency class E may disappoint those looking to reduce their energy consumption, potentially leading to higher electricity bills. Furthermore, the cycle duration of 220 minutes may seem long for users in a hurry, and its capacity of 10 place settings may be insufficient for large families or frequent gatherings. Finally, its relatively high weight may complicate installation, especially for individuals with reduced mobility. In terms of scores, the product receives varied results: the user experience is rated positively with a score of 78, although the cycle duration may frustrate some. The performance, rated at 70, highlights a correct but improvable efficiency in terms of energy. The design receives a high score of 85, while ergonomics and practical use are also well-rated, at 80 and 82 respectively. In summary, the Bosch SPI2HKS42E is a solid choice for those seeking an efficient and aesthetic dishwasher, provided that its limitations in terms of capacity and energy efficiency are taken into account.
