# Bosch vs Beko Dishwasher: Real Comparison Before Buying > The bottom line: If you want the largest capacity for the lowest price, choose Beko (BDFN15420S with 14 place settings, or BDFN26520XQ with 15 place settings and 6 programs). If your top priorities are quiet operation and official brand customer service in Egypt, choose Bosch (Series 2 SMS25AI00V, or Series 4 SMS46NB01V if you want half-load and better drying). **3 min read** ## Who is behind each brand in Egypt? The two brands do not belong to the same company. Bosch belongs to the German BSH group, and in Egypt, they have a company called BSH Home Appliances in New Cairo, with customer service at 15196. Beko belongs to the Turkish Arçelik, and in Egypt, they have Beko Egypt, which stated in 2022 that it has over 750 sales points and 83 customer service centers, and started building a factory in 10th of Ramadan City. The first phase of this factory was for cookers and refrigerators according to the 2022 announcement. ## Where are they made? The sales pages that list the country of origin for the Bosch models in the comparison state Turkey, and most sales pages for Beko dishwashers that mention the country of origin also state Turkey, although there is a sales page for model BDFN15420B that states Egypt. So check the country of origin on the page of the model you will buy. Generally, the difference between the two brands is not in the assembly country; the difference lies in the company, design, specifications, and service. ## Warranty and After-Sales Service - **Bosch:** The Bosch Egypt website states that the basic warranty is 24 months, with an additional 3 years of extended warranty. Many sales pages on Amazon write 5 years, and some 10 years on the motor. Request the duration to be written in the warranty card.- **Beko:** The warranty period is written from 2 to 5 years depending on the model and the seller. Its advantage is the large number of service centers. In both cases, check who the seller is on the Amazon: the official brand store or another seller, because this makes a difference in the warranty. ## Capacity, Noise, and Features - **Capacity:** Beko gives you more place settings in the same category: 14 and 15, compared to 12 and 13 for Bosch.- **Noise:** Bosch Series 4 is rated at 44 decibels, and Beko is between 46 and 49 in these models. If the kitchen is open to the living room, this difference will show at night.- **Drying:** Bosch Series 4 has a heat exchanger for drying. Beko focuses on Steam Gloss for shining glassware.- **Programs:** The more expensive models from both brands have 6 programs, and the cheaper ones have 5.- **Water and Electricity:** Bosch Series 2 has energy efficiency A and is rated at 224 kilowatt-hours and 2574 liters of water per year according to the sales page, and Beko BDFN26520XQ is rated at about 9.5 liters per wash. These figures are calculated on the Eco program, and fast and hot programs consume more. ## Recurring Drawbacks - A buyer of Bosch Series 2 wrote that it needs a stable electricity between 215 and 230 volts, and that it shuts down when electricity drops during peak times. If your electricity drops, consider a stabilizer.- Sales pages for both brands contain incorrect data such as 9 x 9 cm dimensions, so rely on the dimensions written in the description or catalog.- The same model has more than one page with more than one seller and different warranty. ## How to choose? If your family is large and the budget is limited, Beko will give you a larger capacity for less money. If the kitchen is open and the noise matters to you, or you want to deal with the brand's own customer service, Bosch. And before you buy any, measure the space, make sure of the water and drainage source next to the sink, and that the socket has an earth wire. ## FAQ ### Are Bosch and Beko the same company?
