Samsung's Bespoke AutoRelease Smart 42 dBA model is the budget route into a quiet kitchen. At $1,299 when checked it is the cheapest machine on this list, and its 42 dBA rating matches the Bosch 800 Series. Samsung lists StormWash+ for tough food, Smart Dry with an AutoRelease door that opens at the end of the cycle, and Wi-Fi so you can see when a cycle finishes without walking over to listen for it. The White Glass front with a recessed handle is a style choice that suits a bright, open room. What you give up compared with the 38 dBA Samsung is the AI Wash mode and the washing third rack, plus 4 dBA on paper. Samsung's own review summary also notes some complaints about installation, faulty parts and support, so buy from a retailer with a clear return policy. We compared documented features and published prices.
