There is a lot to
say about something
so quiet.
Quietness
You may have heard that Bosch is the quietest
brand of dishwashers in the U.S.* and that there
is no quieter dishwasher in any Bosch price point.
Maybe you're not hearing anything much at all.
That's because with three layers of sound-muffling
material—metal, cotton-fiber insulation, and heavy-
duty bitumen sheets—and our suspended, two-pump
motor system that dramatically reduces vibration
and noise, Bosch has created a kind of quiet that
screams German engineering.
Engineering a quiet response
Quietest brand
Noise is measured in decibels (dBA).
A whisper is about 30 dBA, and a normal
conversation is about 60 dBA. As the quietest
dishwashers in the U.S., * Bosch has a silence
rating as low as 39 dBA, equivalent to that of a
library. All Bosch quiet levels are certified by an
independent lab.
* Bosch offers the quietest dishwasher in North American and no
major brand offers a quieter model at any Bosch price point. Class
defined by similarly priced and designed models of major brands,
obtained from competitors' websites May 2011.
