Quiet and efficient
We didn’t realise how bad our last machine had become! This new one is so quiet and everything comes out so squeaky clean. Also a bit bigger which is handy. Very good purchase.

Quiet and effective
We are happy with the effectiveness of this machine, There is plenty of room for our family of four. We are only using basic functions currently, but will likely use the delay start .

Bosch Series 6 - quiet and efficient.
After much research and physically checking out a number of dishwashers, we settled on the Bosch 6. The product reviews were overwhelmingly positive and chats with friends who had the brand highly recommended the model we selected. The Goodguys were very helpful in showing us the features as well. 5 stars from us.

Bosch dishwasher
Pretty happy with it so far. Still adjusting to different lay out from previous dishwasher. Unfortunately drawers don’t run very smoothly. First few times I opened the door, the whole dishwasher came forward, this has slowly improved. Items still wet at times, even with rinse aid and the wash load l have chosen.

It handles 14 place settings, offers six practical programs, app connectivity and good water and energy ratings. Adjustable racks make loading easier for mixed items.

Things to consider

Family use suitability
High - 14 place settings, flexible racks and practical everyday programs suit regular family use
Energy efficiency score
8/10 - 4 star energy rating and estimated annual energy consumption of 230kWh support efficient everyday running
Ease of loading rating
8/10 - adjustable racks and baskets make it easier to fit mixed dish sizes and cookware
Noise level vs category average
8/10 - 44dB is quieter than many standard freestanding dishwashers and suits open-plan spaces well
Installation flexibility
High - freestanding 60cm format suits standard kitchen spaces and is easier to place than built-in models
Key benefits
- 14 place settings: washes a full family-sized load in one cycle, making it well suited to medium to large households.
- 44dB operation: runs quietly enough for open-plan homes and evening cycles with less disruption to conversation.
- Six wash programs: gives you useful flexibility for daily cleaning, including Eco Wash, Auto Wash and Quick 1 Hour.
- Adjustable RackMatic-style loading system: helps fit taller items, cookware and mixed dish sizes more easily.
- Heat exchanger drying: dries effectively while being gentler on delicate items such as glassware and plastics.
- Home Connect app control: lets you monitor and control cycles remotely from a compatible smartphone.
- 4 star energy rating with estimated annual energy use of 230kWh: helps keep electricity use lower than less efficient alternatives.
- 5 star WELS rating with 11.4L per wash: uses water efficiently for a full-size dishwasher.
Q: Will this freestanding dishwasher fit a standard 60cm kitchen space?
A: Yes, for width. Bosch SMS6HAI02A suits a standard 60cm-wide cavity, but freestanding models also need enough room for the door to open and for hoses behind the unit, so check depth and front clearance before ordering.
Q: Does it have a cutlery drawer or only basket loading?
A: No. Bosch SMS6HAI02A does not include a dedicated cutlery drawer. Loading is through the basket layout, so buyers who prefer a full-width top cutlery tray may find this setup less convenient for small utensils.
Q: Is the 44dB noise level quiet for an open-plan home?
A: Yes. Bosch SMS6HAI02A is quiet enough for most open-plan kitchens and evening cycles without dominating the room. It is not silent, so water fill and drain sounds can still be noticeable when the house is otherwise very quiet.
Q: Can I start and monitor cycles from my phone?
A: Yes. Bosch SMS6HAI02A works with Home Connect for remote cycle monitoring and control through a compatible app. It adds convenience for checking progress or starting a wash, but dishes still need to be loaded and detergent added manually.
Q: How well does the heat exchanger dry plastics and glassware?
A: Bosch SMS6HAI02A uses a heat exchanger drying system that dries gently and helps protect delicate items such as glassware. Like many dishwashers, very light plastic containers can still hold some droplets and may need a quick wipe after the cycle.
Q: Is the Quick 1 Hour cycle suitable for daily family washing?
A: Yes. The Quick 1 Hour program suits everyday loads when you want a faster turnaround than Eco Wash. For heavily soiled cookware or baked-on residue, the stronger Pots & Pans or Auto programs are the better fit.
Q: What does the 4 star energy rating mean in practice?
A: Bosch SMS6HAI02A has a 4 star energy rating and estimated annual energy consumption of 230kWh. A higher star rating generally means lower running costs than other full-size freestanding dishwashers with a lower energy rating.
