I have a Miele dishwasher in the US. It works great, but normal clean cycle is 2h37m :( it takes forever. Comes out clean though!

I run it on sanitize (baby bottles) with just pods (and rinse aid, it helps getting the water off/dry) and everything comes out squeaky clean. No matter the gunk on it.

Had a Bosch when I lived in Germany. 1h14min for a normal cycle, pods. Came out squeaky clean too. I miss that machine. The extra time the Miele in the US takes is really annoying

I’ve learned you don’t actually need to sanitize baby bottles in the dishwasher, you can just hand wash them normally, and you don’t get as many leaks. Also watch the rinse aid in a baby bottle - it can cause leaky gut: https://lastinghealth.com/news/rinse-aid-affects-immune-and-....

Modern Bosch machines these days all take ~3:30 by default on the eco mode, and ~2:45 on the normal/auto mode.

Modern Bosch machines also have a "fast" mode that is done in just 1h:9m. Of course it uses more water and energy, but I'm fine with that. Dishes come out squeaky clean and mostly dry.

I bought an AEG dishwasher two years ago specifically because it has a 1h "quick" and a 1h30m "normal" cycle (both extend by 15m if you enable the GlassCare option).
