SGE53C55UC

Bosch SGE53C55UC

Most common issues on this model

  1. A standard Bosch rack ordered in error that cannot go into the short tub
  2. Limited headroom that restricts how tall a load the upper rack accepts
  3. A cramped drain hose path inside the shortened opening

A wheelchair-accessible kitchen, with its lowered counter, is the usual home of the SGE53C55UC. Its S-G prefix identifies Bosch’s compact-height cabinet: 32 1/16 inches overall, nearly two inches shorter than the 33 7/8 inch standard Bosch, so it can slide beneath an ADA-height worktop. The machine belongs to the 300 Series and carries a 46 dBA rating and 13 place settings.

Bosch took that height out of the tub itself and left the machinery below it alone. A technician finds the pump, heater and filters just where they expect them. The tub and racks, however, belong only to this short cabinet, and parts from a standard Bosch will not swap in.

Expect the usual calls to be about ordering, then. A standard rack bought for this tub will not fit. After that come the limits of the space itself: little headroom above the upper rack, and a cramped path for the drain hose. Confirming the model number before we order anything for the racks is our first step.

SGE53C55UCSGE53C55UC questions
If we remodel, can a regular Bosch go in this opening?

Not unless the opening is altered. This unit was picked because the counter sits low, and a standard machine is almost two inches taller, so it cannot go underneath.

Can I order any Bosch rack for it?

No, the short cabinet has its own tub and racks. Quote the full model number when ordering rack parts, or let us do it for you.

A tall stockpot will not fit in the upper rack. Is that a defect?

No. The overall height is lower, so there is less room above the upper rack. Tall pieces such as stockpots belong in the lower rack, where the extra clearance is.
