About the Bosch SPE53U56UC
Full Console Dishwasher with 4 Wash Cycles and 4 Wash Options
The convenient RackMatic system on this Bosch model adjusts the top rack in just one step, even when loaded. It also allows for up to 9 rack positions for ultimate loading flexibility. A 24h Delay Start Timer lets you run your dishwasher at off-peak times. The AquaStop Plus feature detects leaks in the solid molded base of the dishwasher and shuts down operation, automatically pumping out water so it cannot make contact with the floor. Additionally, an electro valve at the water tap and a double-walled hose system makes AquaStop Plus the most comprehensive safety system available.

Bosch's water softener ensures optimally spot-free and shiny dishes. It removes hard water spots caused by lime deposits and softens water to the appropriate level for superior washing results. The variable spray pressure allows for better load customization. It provides enhanced cleaning performance based on the cycle that is selected and greatly increases the lower rack's loading versatility.
