Ah, thank you for the information. Bosch has an ad that frequently shows up on YouTube for me. In it, their dishwashers are advertised as the quietest on the market, which is demonstrated by showing a cat sleeping on one. This seemed reminiscent of that.

I would have never considered dishwashers to be a loud appliance, but maybe that's just me.

Bosch also had an advert some years ago where they advertised their newest vacuum to be so silent you could run it next to a sleeping tiger. But to be honest if there was a tiger sleeping in my living room the last thing I would do is start vacuuming...
