Editorial note

The Bosch SMS40E38EU dishwasher stands out with its elegant stainless steel design, bringing a modern touch to any kitchen. Its capacity of 12 place settings makes it an ideal choice for families or meals with friends, while its four washing programs allow for cleaning tailored to the specific needs of each dish. Additionally, the AquaStop function provides extra safety by preventing water leaks, which is a significant advantage. However, a few drawbacks are worth mentioning. Although its noise level of 52 dB is acceptable, it may be considered slightly high in a quiet environment. Furthermore, the cycle time of 198 minutes may seem too long for users in a hurry. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity and child safety features could also disappoint some consumers looking for more modern functionalities. Finally, the energy efficiency class F could lead to higher energy costs in the long run, which may affect the perceived value of the product. In summary, the Bosch SMS40E38EU is a dishwasher that combines aesthetics and functionality, but it has certain limitations to consider. Users will appreciate its design and practical features, but they will also need to take into account its less efficient aspects in terms of energy efficiency and technological modernity.
