Customer Questions and Answers for Insert by Bosch

The Insert is an OEM replacement part for Bosch dishwasher racks. Situated at the base of upper racks, it supports and secures finer dishes during wash cycles. Proper insert function prevents damage to delicate glass and plates from shifting.

Causes of a bad insert can include cracks or fractures from repeated loading/unloading of heavy or unstable dish loads. Detergent and heat exposure causes flexible plastic to warp and sag over many years.

Symptoms include:

• Rattling or movement of inserted dishware
• Pieces no longer being fully contained even on gentle cycles
• Dishes may break or chip without full rack support.

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.
