    A trick with the Jet Dry bottle. Put your finger over the opening, turn the bottle down over the jet dry compartment, then remove your finger. Place your finger over the opening when you want to turn it upright. No spill.
  • Just got a Bosch 800 DW and this was such a perfect video to watch. Exhaustively reviews all features, even step-by-step through install and the mobile app. Awesome stuff

    Thank you. I was so confused with the Bosch options because the new models don’t have extra features displayed on the panel. This explains it. Very informative.

    Wow, this video was so thorough and I learnt so much! So many features I didn't even know and so many levers :O Thank you!!

    Came here from the GE Combo video. This is another great video! One can tell that you've thoroughly informed yourself. And even the installation, while more involved than on the Bosch dishwashers over here, is done perfectly. As you've probably figured out by now, you don't need to empty the rack to adjust the height. I guess it's easier to refill the rinse aid if you your unscrew the bottle's cap. Now all you'll need to do is grab a GoPro and be the first to film that new bottom spray arm in action. 😉 Greetings from Germany.

    I bought a Bosch 800 dishwasher 4 years ago. Worked great untill 3 weeks ago. It started throwing E07 codes,the zeolite fan code. I called Bosch with the problem. They said the fan needed to be replaced. It took 2 weeks to get the service guy to come out and when he got here he didn’t bring any parts with him. Looked at it and found the zeolite container was bad and had melted a piece of plastic that runs down the center of the washer. Part of the parts were covered under some recall but the repair is still costing me over $500! A high end washer that costs $1200 shouldn’t have service issues after only 4 years! If you’re considering a Bosch think twice about it. I live alone and only use it once every 2 days,it’s not like I’m using it to death.

    Great video, great accent. Questions: can two people get alerts or make adjustments on their own phones/devices, or will the app work with only one person? Is using the app the only way one will have access to all the settings options or are these also available on the panel e.g. deeper in the menu somewhere? Is there an option not to use the wifi option altogether? I may decide not to. I originally used ot for my washing machine but the constant alerts were too much and I turned it off. Do you happen to know if the auto door opening option can be either turned off or adjusted to open at a later time if the hot steam has a negative effect on painted cabinetry to either side of the dishwasher? I know there's a protective seal at the top but one review implied she got damage on the cabinetry or paint on both sides of her 800 series dishwasher from that hot steam. Have you found that your machine jiggles around and doesn't feel super stable and firm in place? That was another negative review (amidst mostly positive reviews). Last Q: how are you liking your machine at this point in time? Thanks so much! Anyone else with the 800 can feel free to answer as well! :)
  • Just bought a 300 and installed it and has a wired burning unique chemical smell have run empty multiple times and still have this odour like tar or plastic smell ..? Anyone else have this issue or notice this upon installing a new Bosch Dishwasher?

    Nice video👌..As a 5years Bosch user Im really satisfied with my serie8 super silence plus dishwasher but there is something alittle frustrating about the ceiling shower..I think that Bosch should revise It..I believe that an arm can be more powerful and efficient than that spinning thing..that thing cant cover all the third rack especially the items located at the corners to wash properly..anyway..I have a question..I found that your dishwasher has not a salt reservoir..has it?..I cant see the reservoir cap.
  • @Painfulwhale360
    Thanks for this video! Super helpful! Have you had any issues with this 800 series, yet? looking to get the model in the next month or so. Thanks!
  • Beware of their warranty. They didn’t honor a $550 repair for me.
  • @ilotey
    I didn't see any 6-month report given in this video - what has been your experience after 6 months? What issues have you encountered and would you recommend this dishwasher after 6 months of use?
