Bosch Appliances have long been synonymous with quality, innovation, and advanced technology in the home appliance sector. Among their impressive lineup, the Bosch HES236U and HES232U models stand out for their cutting-edge features, energy efficiency, and user-friendly designs.

The Bosch HES236U is a premium European style dishwasher that combines capacity with performance.

Both models come with a sanitizing option that eliminates 99.9% of bacteria, providing peace of mind for hygiene.

Both appliances come with the Home Connect feature, allowing users to control and monitor their dishwashers through a smartphone app. This integration of smart technology provides convenience and the ability to schedule wash cycles remotely, aligning with modern lifestyle needs.
