Bosch SHP78CM5N
This is our upgrade recommendation for shoppers whose dishwasher contains a regular mix of plates, glass and plastic containers. The extra drying system is the meaningful distinction from the 500 Series.
Reviewed reports strong cleaning and drying from its tests of this exact model, while noting sensitive controls. Those are Reviewed’s findings, not tests performed by Rinse & Rack.
Bosch’s advertised drying improvement uses its own comparison conditions. We do not translate that claim into a guaranteed result for your containers.
Choose the 500 Series if the upgrade stretches your budget; consider this model when drying convenience is worth the difference to you.
