My dishwasher doesn't have a salt compartment or any sort of water-softening features; in the US, I haven't heard about this feature. Apparently it's a UK thing?
I know Miele has a water softener feature. That's the only time I've heard of it in the US.
There are a few Bosch models with dishwasher salt dispensers, but it’s extremely rare in the US.
It’s a great idea, given most municipalities have hard water.
Yeah I need it with my well water. But generally we just put up with spotty dinnerware. If we have guests over, we'll wash whatever by hand before.
interesting.. I got a Kitchenaid but maybe I would have gotten a Bosch. I wanted a Bosch but they were on tremendous backorder compared to the Kitchenaid in 2021.
