Is the Bosch 500 Series SHP65CM5N worth it?

Yes for most households. It combines a quiet 44 dB wash, a flexible third rack and effective AutoAir drying, and owners rate it 4.7 out of 5. The $1,186.00 price at Plesser's Appliances as of November 5, 2026 is the main hurdle.

How does it compare with the Bosch 300 Series?

The 500 Series adds the flexible third rack and AutoAir drying, and it is quieter than the 300 Series. The 300 Series costs less but gives up some loading flexibility and drying performance.

Does it really dry dishes without a heating element?

Yes. AutoAir opens the door slightly at the end of the cycle so steam escapes and dishes dry from residual heat. Owners report dishes come out dry, though plastic items may stay damp.

What are the cutout and power requirements?

It needs a 24-inch-wide opening about 23.75 inches deep and 33.88 inches tall, and a 12A, 120V circuit. Measure your cabinet opening before ordering.

What comes in the box?

The dishwasher, mounting brackets and a manual. Power cord and water supply line are usually sold separately, so check before installation.
