No more Bosch for me..
No more Bosch for me..
Nice write-up by Jeff.
Things are getting out of hand. It's time for a change. Only buy equipment with local access.
You're viewing a single thread.
I moved to a new place and it came with one of these.
Besides the inconvenience of essentially paywalling features, it fucking GUZZLES rinse aid and send you notifications about needing more, and it doesn’t rinse it all the way off meaning my dishes need rinsing before drinking out of a glass for example.
Fuck Bosch and fuck Consumer Reports. What an absolute ingot of microplastic pollution someone rammed into my kitchen
Forget rinse aid. Get one of those ramekins you get with some desserts, put in some vinegar and put the dish among the plates at the bottom. Sparklyyyyy.
(I had a Bosch too, now have a Miele)
Isnt this really tough on the dishwasher internals? Corrosively so? Thats why I veered away from this way thus far.
The water is really hard where I live, the limescale pretty much neutralises the vinegar. And a lot of rinse aid is citric acid or vinegar anyway!
Sick, so is my water. I love my well but wow the minerals are insane. Going to steal this tip and use it from now on, thanks!
You could also just pour that into the rinse aid dispenser...
Which didn't work, hence the ramekin.
On the 500 series, it needs a rinse aid refill about once a month using it once a day to once every other day.
