The black SHE53C86N carries the same 46 dBA, 16 place setting, three-rack 300 Series specification as its white and stainless siblings. Where the dark finish does make a difference is in how visible hard-water spotting is on the outside of the door – and by extension how often it gets wiped with whatever is under the sink. Oven cleaner, scouring cream and bleach wipes all attack the printed control graphics on a dark fascia, and once those markings are gone they cannot be reprinted.
