Bosch Dishwasher, 14 Place Settings, 6 Programmes, Wi-Fi, Brushed Black Steel, SMP6EMC00V

The Bosch SMP6EMC00V is the top of the freestanding Egyptian range, finished in brushed black steel with an anti-fingerprint coating and a black touch control panel that suits a modern dark kitchen. It takes 14 place settings across three levels, with VarioFlex baskets, a Rackmatic upper basket and a VarioDrawer cutlery drawer, all lit by EmotionLight so you can see what you are loading. The headline feature is EfficientDry: at the end of the cycle the door opens itself a few centimetres to vent the steam, so glassware and even plastic containers come out dry without a heated fan. Six programmes cover Eco 50, Auto 45-65 with AquaSensor, Intensive, two Quick cycles and a Favourite programme, while SpeedPerfect Plus, HygienePlus and Pretreatment sit on top as options. Home Connect WiFi puts it all on your phone with Alexa and Google Assistant, and Silence On Demand buys you half an hour of quiet on request. AquaStop carries a lifetime Bosch water damage warranty and the salt softener protects the element against hard Egyptian water. Radio Talaat supplies the SMP6EMC00V at 60 x 84.5 x 60 cm, freestanding or built under.
