Rusty tines, broken wheels or a cracked frame on the bottom rack? This genuine Bosch lower basket, part 20002125, is the bottom rack for a run of Bosch dishwashers. It also cross references to 00777379, 00686485 and 00680404. It's listed for many production versions of the SMS50E38AU, SMU50E15AU and SMS50E12AU, and for the SMU50E45AU, the SMI50E45AU and the SMS40E08AU.

When it's time for a new lower dishwasher basket

The lower basket carries plates, pots and pans and rolls in and out on wheels along the tub rails. Over years of use the plastic coating on the wire can chip, and once water reaches the steel underneath, rust spots form and can stain dishes. Tines snap, wheels wear flat, and a bent frame can catch on the door or spray arm. If the basket drags, tips when loaded or leaves rust marks on your crockery, replacing it is a simple job with no tools.

Fitting the new basket

Open the door fully and roll the old basket out. Lift it off the rails and set the new one on, making sure the wheels sit on the track on both sides. Push it in and out a few times to check it runs freely and clears the lower spray arm. Look over your old basket for any clips or inserts worth moving across before you throw it out.
