At 38 dBA the SHP95CM5N is among the quietest machines Bosch sells in the US, and it does it inside the 500 Series rather than in Benchmark. Sixteen place settings, pocket handle, three racks, PureDry drying. Getting to 38 dBA means heavy insulation wrapped around the tub and a bitumen mat on the outside of it, which has a practical consequence during repairs: more has to come off to reach the pump than on a 46 dBA machine, and insulation that has been soaked by a past leak has to be replaced rather than dried.

Most Common Issues on This Model

03
