Bosch 60 cm fully integrated dishwashers sit completely behind a door panel that matches your kitchen units, so only the cabinetry is on show. The range runs from Series 2 through Series 4 and Series 6 to Series 8, with 12 to 14 place settings, which covers most household sizes. If you would rather keep the control panel visible along the top of the door, look at Bosch semi-integrated dishwashers.

Series 2 keeps things simple, with push-button controls and a D energy rating; one model lists Extra Dry, Half Load and SpeedPerfect+ options. Series 4 models are C rated and also use push buttons, and some have a Vario Hinge. This lifts the door front as it opens, so the dishwasher can be fitted at the height you choose while keeping gaps between furniture fronts small. That helps when your plinth or door heights aren't standard. Series 6 moves to touch controls and an LED display, with energy ratings from A to C, and some models have three spray heads rather than two. Series 8 adds a colour TFT display, an interior light and an A rating.

Noise levels range from 40 to 46 dB, and one Series 6 model drops to 30 dB in its Silence programme, which is worth considering for an open-plan room. Dishwashers with higher energy ratings usually cost more to buy but less to run. Eco programmes take from 3 hours 20 minutes to nearly 5 hours, because they save energy by washing at lower temperatures for longer. Some models have a cutlery tray at the top and others a cutlery basket in the lower rack. App connectivity, through Home Connect on models that name it, lets you check on a cycle from your phone.

To narrow things down, start with fitting: if your door fronts need to line up at unusual heights, focus on the Vario Hinge models. Then weigh quietness and running costs against your budget, and decide whether a display and touch controls matter to you.
