DH installed my Bosch 500 yesterday & I'm liking it! No problem loading my Corelle & tall glasses at this point. Used half load option, as I didn't cook yesterday since it took him all afternoon to install. 1 hour & 40 minute cycle & then I opened the door. 1 hour later everything was dry except for 2 plastic lids on the 3rd rack.
