A dishwasher buying guide
Pots and pans become dirty after use in the kitchen and dining table. These must be cleaned for the next use. Earlier these were used to be cleaned manually, which was quite tedious, till the machine called dishwasher was invented. Now, you just have to put the dirty crockery in the machine and bring out the clean utensils. The rest of the job is performed by the machine. All you have to do is pour detergent mixed with water to clean the utensils, and again use clean water to remove the detergent residue.
There are various brands and models of dishwashers available in the market to choose from. One of the most renowned brands in respect of dishwashers is the Bosch dishwashers. The Bosch dishwashers have become a standard household appliance all over the world since the 1970s. They are known not to include hard food disposal units within the dishwashers so as to reduce the noise levels.
Factors to consider before buying a dish washer
When a person decides to purchase a dishwasher, there are certain factors that need to be compared among the available brands in the market. The factors which are mostly considered are the number of wash cycles, the various place settings available, the different colors available and the noise level of the machine.
- Noise level: The noise level is important as the peace of the room is dependent on this. The noise level is measured in decibel and the machine with the minimum decibel is the quietest. If we make a ranking based on noise level, the Bosch SHX9PT75UC model is the best with a noise level at 38 decibel.
- Wash cycles: Dishwashers offer three wash cycles: light for a light wash, normal for washing of not so heavy materials, and heavy for pots and pans, which need extra strength to clean. The speed, water temperature and pressure are different in different cycles. The Bosch Model No.SHP68TL5UC gives you 6 wash cycles, 5 options, and touch controls.
- Size: An average family includes parents, and 2 to 3 kids and they require a dishwasher with 12 place settings. It means that all the plates, knives and forks of everyone can be washed at one go. But there may be occasions when more people may gather, and 12 place dishwashers are not sufficient. So, you can go for 16 place dishwashers. The best buy in this category can be Bosch Model No.SHP68TL5UC, which has got 16 place dishwashers.
New technology has been introduced to increase the temperature during the drying time to get the work done fast and to help reduce moisture. Another new feature in the new Bosch Dishwasher Model No. SHXM63WS5N is a change in the base to control the leak. Also, there is a sensor and a pump to locate the leak and pump out the same, if there is a leak which is a very rare phenomenon. In the new machines of all the models, there is an upper rack, which can be adjusted, as per necessity, in three different height levels.
