Bosch publishes the SHE43DM5N at 48 dBA over 12 place settings, on the deeper 23 3/4 inch tub and with AquaStop rather than the plain overflow float. It is a machine that gets specified a lot in rentals and flips because it is the cheapest Bosch with AquaStop on the inlet. If you ever have to identify quickly whether a Bosch has AquaStop, look at the supply hose: an AquaStop hose is noticeably fatter, because it is a hose inside a hose, and it carries a moulded solenoid block at the tap end.
