Quiet. Efficient. Evolved.
Meet the SHE43MO5, a beautiful stainless steel dishwasher designed for your needs. It’s stealthy quiet, and here’s why. When in action, it’s the noise factor, or rather the lack of it, that’ll draw your attention. With a suspended two-pump motor system, vibrations and noise are drastically reduced. And with heavy-duty bitumen coated metal and cotton-fiber sheet insulation, the noise is basically buried. Bosch’s dishwashers are as discreet as they are powerful. Plus, the CHILDLOCK latch prevents children from disturbing the SHE43M05’s duties. But you can, if you want, via placed controls and status displays on the outside panel for instant access.
The Green Cleaning Machine
Hop on the green bandwagon with Bosch. The SHE43M05 features ECOSENSE™, an advanced sensor system that determines the soil level in the wash water and automatically deletes fresh water fills if they’re not needed, saving you time and money while cutting energy usage by 20%. In conventional dishwashers, water falls randomly onto an exposed heating element. And since not all the water touches the heating element, this results in slower and less energy-efficient heating. Bosch dishwashers, on the other hand, channel 100% of the water through tighter coils in a confined heating chamber, which heats the water quickly and efficiently up to 161 degrees Fahrenheit. Proving once again that Bosch is committed to efficiency, the SHE43MO5 is ENERGY STAR® qualified.

Take the drudgery out of the usual grating and slicing jobs, PLUS get many of the precision slicing benefits of a mandoline! Includes full system with slicer, catch-all bowl, and safety food holder. Packed in a really beautiful and clever full-colour flip-top box, making a it a great gift. Another truly excellent value from Borner of Germany! This unit definitely has my stamp of approval — it’s very impressive and right away you’ll see that it’s a quality item designed for years of service, and not some cheap kitchen-store "gadget-of-the-month "
This is a really, really cool device. It’s like a box grater and a mandoline (or the best-selling V-Slicer I should say) morphed into a new invention that takes both to a whole new level. You get a very strong and super well-made stainless steel 4-sided box-grater-like unit, but instead of the usual two sides of most box graters, you get four sides fitted with permanently installed sharpened stainless steel blades. This gives you the most of the functions and features of a mandoline AND a box grater, combined to make both devices actually BETTER!

There comes the time in every young person’s life where they decide to graduate from the microwave to the stove. And fail miserably. Now instead of retreating dejectedly back to the kitchen microwave, where the rest of the appliances can point and make fun, you can hide your shame with the iWave Cube. The little microwave measures one cubic foot (about the size of a Kleenex box), and weighs just 12 pounds. Unfortunately, you’ll still need to plug it in, so there’s a limit to how far you can run. The iWave Cube comes in black, red or silver, and retails for $130.
