Best-in-Class Quiet
Bosch looks at noise reduction from every angle, incorporating 18 unique sound-
reducing technologies. And as the quietest line of dishwashers in the U.S., all Bosch
quiet levels are certified by an independent lab
.
Multiple Insulation Layers
Multiple layers of
sound-absorbing
insulation: Coated
stainless steel, baked
on bitumen, and cotton
fiber dampen noise.
What’s a decibel?
Noise is measured in decibels (dBA).
A three decibel increase is the sound
power equivalent of running two
dishwashers at once.

Solid Molded Base
Solid molded base absorbs
sound while

vibration.
EcoSilence™ Motor System
Two small
brushless motors
instead of a single
large one reduce
friction and work
more efficiently. Motors
are held by a rubber suspender
to absorb vibration.
Drain pump detects when water is
drained and stops motor immediately
to minimize snorkeling noise.
