Bosch 800 Series SHX78CM5N Dishwasher vs Bosch Benchmark SHP9PCM5N Dishwasher
Both are 24-inch built-in Bosch dishwashers with CrystalDry and Home Connect, so the real split is quietness and cleaning hardware versus capacity. The Benchmark SHP9PCM5N is the quieter machine at 38 dB and adds PowerControl spray arms, AquaStop leak protection and TimeLight, and owners rate it slightly higher. The 800 Series SHX78CM5N holds 16 place settings against the Benchmark's smaller load and uses the Flex 3rd Rack for utensils. Buy the Benchmark for the quietest, best-protected clean; buy the 800 Series if fitting the most dishes per cycle matters more.
- Choose the 800 Series SHX78CM5N if you routinely run full loads for a family and want the most place settings and a flexible third rack.
- Choose the Benchmark SHP9PCM5N if you want the quietest operation, stronger lower-rack cleaning and built-in leak protection.
