Third-party reviews

Based on 7 buyer reviews from online shops.

What we like about Bosch SPS2IKW01G

  • Excellent cleaning performance that handles daily dishes effectively
  • Extremely quiet operation, especially when using the Silence on Demand feature
  • Compact 45cm slimline design ideal for smaller kitchens and households
  • Convenient smart control and remote monitoring via the Home Connect Wi-Fi app
  • Adjustable height for the top basket allows flexibility for taller items
  • SpeedPerfect function significantly reduces washing time when in a hurry

What we don't like about Bosch SPS2IKW01G

  • Lower energy efficiency rating (F-rated under current guidelines)
  • No external visual indicator to clearly signal when a cycle has finished
  • Mixed user opinions regarding value for money compared to entry-level brands
  • Standard cycle times can feel quite long without using speed-boosting modes
  • Limited capacity (9 place settings) which may not suit larger families

Verdict

The Bosch SPS2IKW01G Series 2 is a freestanding slimline dishwasher measuring 84.5 x 45 x 60 cm, specifically engineered with a 9 place setting capacity and 5 wash programs including Eco 50°C, Intensive 70°C, and an Express 65°C cycle. Key advantages include a quiet 48 dB operation powered by an EcoSilence BLDC drive motor, intelligent Home Connect Wi-Fi integration for remote control, DuoPower spray arms, and an Extra Dry option that enhances moisture removal using residual heat while utilizing just 9.5 liters of water per cycle. On the downside, the appliance carries a less efficient class F energy rating under current labeling standards, lacks premium internal racking configurations like a dedicated third cutlery rack, and has mixed consumer sentiment regarding its overall value for money compared to less expensive alternatives.
