Verdict

The Bauknecht BFE 2B19 is a 60 cm freestanding dishwasher designed with a 13 place setting capacity, a hygienic stainless steel interior, and a 49 dB noise level. Key performance features include 5 standard wash programs (Eco 50°C, Intensive 65°C, Mixed 55°C, Rapid 30' 50°C, and Cold Pre-rinse) running across 3 distinct cleaning temperatures, alongside full water protection leak safety, an adjustable upper rack, and a dedicated half-load option to save resources. Pros include its high versatility with custom tablet options, 2-, 4-, or 8-hour start time delays, and an efficient water consumption rate of 12 liters per cycle under the Eco mode. However, notable cons consist of its poor energy efficiency, rated at Class F on the modern scale, and a lack of smart home connectivity features.

What customers like about Bauknecht BFE 2B19?

  • Good overall cleaning results when using standard or higher temperature intensive programs
  • Easy and user-friendly operation with a straightforward control panel
  • Simple and uncomplicated installation process
  • Removable and height-adjustable upper rack that creates flexible loading space for larger items in the lower basket
  • Useful standard feature options such as half-load mode and a delayed start timer

What customers dislike about Bauknecht BFE 2B19?

  • The eco program sometimes fails to get dishes 100% clean, forcing users to use higher temperature cycles
  • Relatively loud operational noise level (around 49 dB), making it noticeable in open-plan living spaces
  • Higher water and energy consumption compared to newer, more efficient models
  • Only offers a rough, basic delay start timer (fixed intervals of 2, 4, or 8 hours) instead of a precise hourly breakdown
  • Drying performance relies on residual heat, which can sometimes leave plastic items and glasses with water spots
