Bosch SMS46KI01E Dishwasher 3rd Rack
Bosch SMS46KI01E Dishwasher: Advanced Technology with Third Rack
The Bosch SMS46KI01E dishwasher represents the evolution of efficiency and versatility in dishwashing. With its innovative third cutlery tray, capacity for 13 place settings, and Bosch's exclusive VarioFlex Basket system, this appliance is designed for families seeking maximum flexibility and professional results.
🍴 Third Rack: More Space and Better Organization
The great advantage of the SMS46KI01E is its third upper rack, an additional space specifically designed for cutlery, small utensils, espresso cups, and spatulas. This rack completely frees up space in the lower baskets, allowing you to utilize every inch of the interior for large plates, pots, and pans.
You will no longer need the traditional cutlery basket that takes up valuable space in the lower basket. With the third rack, your cutlery is perfectly organized, washed better by being separated, and dried more efficiently.
🔄 VarioFlex Basket System: Total Flexibility
Bosch's exclusive VarioFlex Basket system allows you to adapt the dishwasher's interior to your specific needs. The lower and upper baskets are adjustable, with multiple possible configurations to accommodate everything from large plates to delicate glasses, as well as bulky pots.
The height-adjustable upper basket allows you to create additional space in the lower basket when you need to wash tall pots or large pans. The integrated limitless lower capacity system in the lower basket means you can place items of any height without restrictions.
⚡ Energy Efficiency Class E: Optimized Consumption
With its energy rating E according to the new European energy label, this dishwasher consumes 0.92 kWh per cycle in the Eco program (94 kWh per 100 cycles) and only 9.5 liters of water. This represents a perfect balance between professional performance and responsible resource consumption.
In off mode, consumption is practically zero (0.1 W), which helps reduce phantom energy consumption in your home.
🍽️ Capacity for 13 Full Place Settings
With space for 13 place settings, this dishwasher is ideal for families of 4-5 people or for households that frequently entertain guests. Thanks to the third rack, you can make better use of the space and wash more dishes in each cycle, optimizing water and energy consumption.
🔇 Quiet Operation: Only 46 dB
With a noise level of just 46 dB(A) (emission class C), the Bosch SMS46KI01E operates extremely quietly. This noise level is comparable to a quiet library, allowing you to run it at any time of day or night without disturbing anyone in the house.
🔄 6 Specialized Wash Programs
