Dishwasher Recommendations
Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
Is it like the BMW naming convention?
You have a 1/2 series when you’re young. Then progress into a 3/4/5 series as middle age approaches and you have kids. Then you have a mid life crisis and get a 6 series. Then before you know it you’re an old fart in a 7 series.

How about not having a sig at all?
Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
I've also just done a comparison.
The Series 6 has £100 cash back. In addition to the superior features, it's made in Germany as opposed to Poland, is quieter (at 44dB vs 48dB), takes 14 as opposed to 12 place settings, and is more energy efficient to boot. At today's electricity rates, the £205 price delta is completely wiped out by this energy efficiency delta in only 77yrs & 3months.
The correct choice is obvious.

Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
now that you mention it, I do like the little red dot that is projected... maybe I would like more...

Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
Well, there you go. It turns out they're so similar that our Bosch is actually a NeffSwervin_Mervin wrote: ↑Mon Mar 20, 2023 11:44 am Ours is a Bosch also. Bosch/Neff/Siemens are all the same. However, there are slight variations in available size options so worth checking out all 3. There was a Neff equivalent of the XL one that we have but naturally it cost more. Specs were exactly the same.
No time remaining floor display though sadly. We've the projected red dot though. Useful given how quiet it is and how I'll quite often forget whether I actually put it on or just put the tablet in and forgot...
Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
Oh yeah, the floor display is a complete gimmick

Do they do a free-standing series 6? Literally too tired to Google it myself. Also, had dodgy chicken for dinner.

Sorry to disappoint, but we've yet to buy it. Old one decided to start working again, so purchase has been postponed.

Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
I was cursing you a couple of weeks back as our shitey dishwasher was acting up. The door opens at the end of the drying cycle, and it was refusing to latch closed again. Resetting and powering it down didn't work. I had to do a 12 minute rinse cycle whilst holding the door closed with my manly strength, but I wasn't sure that would work, so I was simultaneously pricing up one of those (whilst fretting about @Rich B ripping into me for such extravagance )DeskJockey wrote: ↑Wed May 24, 2023 3:01 pm

Luckily my cunning plan forced the latch to reset.
So I have "saved money". But I still have a shitey dishwasher.

We can be shitey-dishwasher-fwends?

Ah no. The fucking-peasants-fwends are another group altogether.

@mik I feel like Croesus! Bosch series 6 installed and running. No more washing up by hand for me (except the large pots/pans, knives, fancy glasses and other items that aren't deemed dishwasher suitable by management).

Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
I was looking at induction hobs recently, Bosch 6 series vs 8 series. The only difference is the latter connects to your iPhone and costs £250 more

Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
how useful. I'm going to turn on my hob with my phone... of course I have to walk over and put the pot on, then I watch it whilst it's cooking... but it's nice to be able to turn it on with my phone for £250!
Re: Dishwasher Recommendations
Had the same convo with SJ about coffee machines. What's the point in being able to operate it from an app on your phone when you need to physically place a mug under the outlet first.
