Some Bosch machines are simply worth keeping, and the SHE7ER55UC is one. It was a built-under stainless dishwasher with a recessed handle, rated 44 dBA for 14 place settings, with a float in the base pan to catch overflow. Its washing hardware is not outdated: pump and filters come from the same family that Bosch still fits today.
What really dates it is the cycle list and the lack of Wi-Fi. When owners ask whether to replace one, our answer rarely depends on electronics.
We judge it by the door and the tub seal. Gaskets that have gone hard and pulled back at the corners, hinges that let the top of the door stand out, and a drain hose that has aged where it was kinked are what we usually find.
When the tub has corroded through or the door will no longer close tightly, because both are structural problems that no repair can reverse. Pumps, heaters, gaskets and hoses are routine jobs and none of them writes a dishwasher off.
Yes, if it is more than ten years old and has been bent hard for years. A new hose costs little, while a split one can flood the cabinet base in minutes. Fit it with the supply off.
Usually worn hinge parts. We can normally bring the alignment back, and doing so also spares the gasket from uneven pressure along its length, so it is worth doing soon.
