We bought the Siemens dishwasher as a substitute for a simple Billigspüler. We wanted above all a quiet machine with flexible usage possibilities. The Siemens is very quiet in operation (with proper loading). The kitchen is with us right next to the living room and the flushing operation, all doors remain open - in the WZ Spülgeräusch is no longer perceptible. In the kitchen at low volume only be guessed :-)
The shopping cart system is well thought out and so far every situation (everyday, party, Grosskochberg construction, ...) were justified. The wash results are almost always perfect.
Only criticism: although the rinse aid indicator is off, it sometimes lacks rinse aid. Should we just simply top up regularly, then nothing happens.
