Bosch 800 User Reviews and Ratings
In our Bosch 800 series dishwasher review, this popular dishwasher line has garnered thousands of online reviews. We've highlighted a few recent examples, showcasing the features customers appreciate the most:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Cleans our dishes well. Extremely quiet, doesn't wake a sleeping baby”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“I was deciding between the 300 and the 800 and heard the 800 had superior drying - all of my dishes are so clean and dry. I love the configuration of the dishwasher itself and how quiet it is! Definitely recommend!”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“It's only been one month, but so far loving it. It is super quiet and I'm glad I splurged for the crystal dry technology.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“After a month of operation, I'm very pleased with the new dishwasher. It is super quiet. Glasses come out spotless, in part because of a neat water softening feature that most brands don't have. This was key because we have such hard water. We bought a Bosch dishwasher in our previous home as well.”
User Difficulties
The 800 series have gathered thousands of positive reviews online, but one common issue customers report is a lack of user friendly controls.
Some customers find it tough to select their cycles with the 800 series, and others have trouble understanding the Wi-Fi connectivity. If user friendly, simple controls are crucial for you, a model from a more basic series may be a better match.
Price and Value Comparison
The Bosch 800 series sits at a similar price point to other feature filled dishwasher models at around $1200. While Bosch emphasizes innovative engineering and durability, some other brands such as LG and Samsung offer some additional software features at the same price point.
By shopping with a discount appliance store like Urner's, you can often save hundreds of dollars on appliances, or secure a more high-end model than expected for your budget.

Pros and Cons
Every dishwasher series has its advantages and disadvantages over other options from the same brand, or competitors. We break down some of the pros and cons of the Bosh 800 series for consumers:
✅ Pros:
- Low noise: A quiet dishwasher series with the lowest noise levels available.
- CrystalDry™: As removing wet dishes from the dishwasher is one of customers' biggest complaints, the innovation of the Bosch CrystalDry™ system is a huge time saver.
- Build quality: Backed by a reputation of over 130 years, Bosch is known for building quality for a reason. With stainless steel drums and leak guarding technologies, Bosch still builds a solid product, and the 800 series is no exception.
❎ Cons:
- Higher investment: As a premium product, the Bosch 800 series dishwasher commands a higher price.
- Cutlery baskets: Not all models in the 800 series have a traditional cutlery basket, utilizing the third rack for this purpose instead, which can be slightly more time consuming and use up valuable third rack space.

Why Trust Urner's and Urner's Mattress?
Urner’s started on the back of a bicycle - yup! A bicycle! David E. Urner, a local high school teacher, who spent his summer months selling Wear Ever cookware off the back of a bicycle (think 100+ degrees). David teamed up with another local teacher, Errol P. Janes to create “a new type of store – one that would cater exclusively to providing an easier way of living for the women of Kern County”, and on September 19, 1919, Home Appliance Store was opened to the public. The store boasted a rather impressive selection of “modern” appliances, including a washing machine, a freezer, a gas range, an automatic dishwasher, and an assortment of small appliances. Since then, Urner’s has expanded selections to appliances, furniture, mattresses and cabinetry!
For nearly one century, the Urner family and Urner’s business have both been an integral part of Bakersfield and Kern County, with contributions to the community (Better Business Bureau, Sister City Projects, Bakersfield Symphony), charity (Ronald McDonald House, St. Jude’s Dream Home, House of Hope) and education (CSU Bakersfield, Ray Dezember Leadership Development Center.
