Manual of product SMH4HVX31E
Editorial note
The Bosch SMH4HVX31E dishwasher stands out for its energy efficiency, with a consumption of 94 kWh for 100 cycles and only 9.5 L of water per cycle, thus allowing savings on bills while minimizing environmental impact. Additionally, its quiet operation at 46 dB ensures a pleasant environment, even during washing cycles. The flexibility of use is also a major asset, with six washing programs suited to various types of dishes and a delayed start function of up to 24 hours. However, some drawbacks must be taken into account. The energy efficiency class E is relatively low compared to other models, which could lead to higher energy costs in the long run. Moreover, the cycle duration of 225 minutes may seem long for users in a hurry. The weight of 40 kg can also complicate installation and movement. Finally, the lack of advanced customization options for washing cycles may not meet all users' needs. In terms of performance, the product scores 70, with generally satisfactory performance but a cycle duration that can be a hindrance. Its integrated design, rated at 80, allows for a seamless installation in the kitchen. Regarding robustness, the weight is a double-edged sword, ensuring durability but making installation more complex. Features such as the AquaStop function and dosage assistant are particularly appreciated, receiving a high score of 90. Finally, support is rated good due to the availability of a user manual, although some limitations in customization may disappoint. In summary, the Bosch SMH4HVX31E is a dishwasher that combines efficiency and safety, while presenting some drawbacks related to its cycle time and installation.Score details
