Bosch Dishwasher, 14 Place Settings, 6 Programmes, Digital, Brushed Steel, SMS46NI20V

The Bosch SMS46NI20V is the Series 4 freestanding 60 cm dishwasher that most Egyptian families should be looking at. It handles 14 place settings over three loading levels, because the VarioDrawer third rack takes all the cutlery out of the lower basket and leaves room for another full set of plates. AquaSensor reads how dirty the rinse water is and lets the Auto 45-65 programme decide the temperature and the cycle length for itself, so a light load does not get the same treatment as a tray of oily kofta dishes. Heat exchanger drying warms the tub gently and finishes glassware cleanly, and at 44 dB SuperSilence you can run it at night without disturbing the flat. Eco 50 uses 9.5 litres and the year works out at 148 kWh over 220 cycles. AquaStop leak protection carries a Bosch water damage warranty for the life of the machine, and the built in salt softener defends the heating element against hard Egyptian tap water. Radio Talaat supplies the SMS46NI20V in brushed steel anti-fingerprint, 60 x 84.5 x 60 cm, freestanding or built under a worktop.
