At work we have a dishwasher that has a single LED pointing downwards. So the only indication that it is running is a faint red glow on the floor. This results in it getting opened while running all the time, and spraying water everywhere. But at least the front panel is not made ugly by things like buttons and a LED!

Probably shares same design as "integrated" that is door covered version. Which certainly does look cleaner interior design, but trade offs any reasonable visibility of progress. Style over substance. I would also love to see time counter on front, instead not seeing dishwasher...

  In my first times in that office I had to open all of the closets to find the dishwasher.

This type of dishwasher is made to be integrated in a kitchen with other cabinets (i.e. covered with the same door material as your other cabinets). So the entire front of the dishwasher is customizable and can't have any buttons/indicators.

  There are plenty of kitchen appliances that have a front panel but still let you customize the rest of the front face to match the cabinets.

Dishwashers are quite noisy. Honestly, have you had your ears cleaned recently? It could change your life.

  Perhaps try a dishwasher that is newer than one from 1954 you apparently have?

Bosch? We are semi-unhappy with ours. Our kids will open it to quickly grab a cup or bowl if nothing else is available, and forget to press the "Start" button to restart it. Our old washer would auto-restart after being opened. Oh, and the Start button needs to be pressed for more than a second, and there isn't really a tactile click when it succeeds. Which it doesn't always do. And if you press it twice it can reset and have to re-run the entire cycle.
