Product Description

Product Overview:

The Bosch SBT8ZC801A is a fully integrated 60cm tall tub dishwasher from the Bosch Series 8 range, designed for seamless installation behind custom kitchen cabinetry. The integrated VarioHinge system supports installations with low plinth heights and modern handleless kitchen designs by adjusting the door movement during opening.

With a 15 place setting capacity, the SBT8ZC801A is suited to larger households and entertaining environments requiring substantial loading flexibility. Bosch’s Max Flex Pro basket system, Rackmatic height adjustment, VarioDrawer Pro cutlery tray, and foldable rack elements allow adaptable loading across cookware, glassware, plates, and serving items.

PerfectDry with Zeolith technology improves drying performance by using natural mineral technology and a heat exchanger system to dry dishes — including plastics — more effectively at lower energy consumption levels. The dishwasher also operates quietly at 42 dB(A), supported by the EcoSilence Drive motor system.

Home Connect functionality enables app-based remote operation, cycle monitoring, and notifications through compatible smart devices, while TimeLight projects programme information onto the floor during operation for visibility within fully integrated cabinetry installations.

Extra Information:

The SBT8ZC801A is designed for fully concealed installation and requires a custom cabinetry door panel and kick panel supplied by the kitchen cabinetmaker or installer. The VarioHinge system is specifically engineered for contemporary kitchens with low plinth heights and integrated cabinetry alignments.

Bosch’s PerfectDry system uses Zeolith mineral technology combined with heat exchange drying to improve drying results while reducing residual moisture on plastics and containers. EfficientDry further supports drying performance through automatic door opening at cycle completion.

The Home Connect platform enables remote monitoring and control through compatible mobile devices, including cycle notifications and programme management. TimeLight projects operational information directly onto the floor due to the fully integrated control panel being concealed behind cabinetry.
