Spotlight: Bosch 300 Series SHE53B75UC 24" Dishwasher — 46 dB Quiet, 15 Place Settings, Open-Box from $820

If you've ever run a dishwasher in an open-concept home and had to pause the TV, you already understand why Bosch has the reputation it does. The Bosch 300 Series SHE53B75UC is one of the quietest dishwashers in its price class, and right now it's on our floor in both NEW BOX and OPEN BOX condition — starting at $820 CAD.

Why this dishwasher is worth a look

The 300 Series sits at the sweet spot in Bosch's lineup: it has the features most Canadian households actually use every day, without the premium you pay for the 500 and 800 Series.

  • 46 dBA sound rating. That's roughly the volume of a quiet library. Most builder-grade dishwashers land in the 52–57 dBA range, and because decibels are logarithmic, that gap is much bigger in real life than the numbers suggest. You can run this one during dinner and forget it's on.
  • 15 place settings across 3 racks. The third rack up top swallows the awkward stuff — spatulas, measuring cups, long knives, espresso portafilters — that normally eats space in your upper basket. For a family of four or five, that's the difference between one load a day and two.
  • Stainless steel interior. Stainless tubs hold heat far better than plastic, which means better drying and no absorbed odours over time. Plastic tubs are the single most common corner cut on entry-level machines.
  • Built-in water softener. This is a real advantage in a lot of Ontario and Prairie homes. Hard water is what leaves that chalky film on glassware and slowly scales up the heating element. A softener means cleaner glasses and a longer-lived machine.
  • 6 wash cycles and Wi-Fi connectivity. Heavy, Auto, Normal, Delicate, Express and Rinse cover essentially every load. The Home Connect app lets you start a cycle on a delay so it runs overnight on off-peak hydro rates.
  • Built-under, 24-inch fit. At 23-9/16" wide and 34-1/16" tall, it drops into a standard North American cabinet opening.

Who this one is for

This is the right machine if you're replacing a loud, aging dishwasher in a kitchen that's open to the living space — a condo, a bungalow, or any home where the kitchen isn't walled off. It's also a smart pick for anyone renovating who wants Bosch's build quality and quiet operation but doesn't need the 800 Series' crystal-drying bells and whistles.

It's less of a fit if you need a fully panel-ready front to match custom cabinetry, or if you're outfitting a rental where the tenant just needs something basic and inexpensive. We have simpler models for that — and they're on the same shelf.

What you actually save

New at a Canadian big-box retailer, a Bosch 300 Series 24" dishwasher in this configuration typically lands north of $1,000 before tax and delivery. Here's how our pricing compares:

  • NEW BOX — $875 CAD. Factory-sealed, untouched, full manufacturer packaging. Same machine, same warranty, lower price simply because we buy in bulk from overstock and clearance channels.
  • OPEN BOX — SCRATCH & DENT — $820 CAD. Fully functional and inspected, with cosmetic imperfections — usually a scuff or small dent on the side panel or the top edge. On a built-under dishwasher, those panels are hidden by your cabinets once it's installed. You're paying less for damage nobody will ever see.
  • FACTORY REFURBISHED — $547 CAD. Restored and tested to spec. Currently sold out on this model, but stock moves — it's worth checking the product page.

Every unit we sell is tested before it leaves the warehouse, and every grade carries our warranty. The savings come from where we source, not from cutting corners on what we ship.

One practical note before you buy

Measure your cabinet opening before you order — height, width, and depth — and check how far your existing water line and drain sit from the back wall. A 24-inch dishwasher needs a genuine 24-inch opening, and older homes sometimes surprise you. If you're unsure, our appliance measuring guide walks through it step by step.
