Which dishwasher is quieter?

The Bosch SHP78CM4N is quieter at 42 dBA compared to the Smeg's 45 dBA. Bosch includes an InfoLight to signal when it is running because the operation is so silent.

Is the Bosch worth the extra $248?

It is worth the premium if you value smart features, a larger 16-place setting capacity, and the specialized RackMatic adjustable rack system. If you just need a high-quality stainless steel tub, the Smeg is more cost-effective.

Do both models have a third rack?

Yes, both have dedicated space for silverware. The Bosch features a Flexible 3rd Rack, while the Smeg provides both a cutlery tray and a traditional basket.

Which has better leak protection?

Both brands are known for safety, but the Smeg specifically lists the Aquastop system. Bosch units typically include similar overflow protection sensors.
