Counted from the 7 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.
Missouri holds 7 listed Bosch businesses, out of 295 nationwide. That ranks 20th of the 46 states with any, level with Michigan and behind Texas on 18. They are 7 of the 16 businesses listed in Missouri — 44% of the state directory.
Their ratings average 4.7, against 4.6 across all 295 listed nationwide, and 6 of the 7 sit at 4.5 or better. None holds a straight 5.0, and none sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 1,103 reviews, the largest single tally being 271 on Able Appliance Repair in Kansas City. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.
By review volume the group is led by Able Appliance Repair in Kansas City (271 reviews, 4.4), All American Appliance Services LLC in Saint Louis (223 reviews, 4.7) and Gateway Appliance Service in St. Louis (178 reviews, 4.9). By rating it is Gateway Appliance Service at 4.9 on 178 reviews, Heartland Appliance Service at 4.8 on 156 reviews and Appliance Pros LLC at 4.8 on 120 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.
All 7 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 2 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation and 3 state a factory-authorised or factory-trained credential in the profiles. None advertises round-the-clock emergency cover, but 1 advertises same-day service. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.
6 of the 7 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1983, and the median across those that say is 28 years. Kansas City holds the most at 4 — 57% of the group — followed by St. Louis on 3, across 2 Missouri cities with an index page. Between them they name 23 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

The brand decides the parts route and the labour skill; the state decides the labour rate and the drive time. Both matter, and only one of them is on the quote.
Start a Bosch dishwasher call by ruling out the two behaviours that are designed in rather than broken. These machines dry by condensation against a stainless tub instead of with an exposed heating element, so plastics come out damp and there is no glowing element to fail. They are also engineered to a low sound target, so a cycle you can barely hear is not a cycle that has stopped. What is left after those is ordinary and fixable — drainage, the inlet valve, the door latch and its switch. Parts run at premium-tier prices but through normal channels rather than a restricted account, and the machine displays a fault code that a technician can look up before the visit. Read it out when you call.
OEM parts cost noticeably more and the aftermarket is thinner, so expect an order-and-return visit on anything past the common failures. Because the machine is worth more, a part that would total a budget unit is often still the right call here. Compare parts suppliers before you agree to an OEM-only quote.
Category prices lifted to the premium tier at 1.5×, the same multiplier the value estimator uses. The line is half the replacement price: above it, on a machine past two-thirds of its life, replacing usually wins. National figures, not Missouri quotes.

The same 7 businesses also cover garbage disposal (2), ice maker (4), wine cooler (2), which Bosch does not build. That is useful rather than irrelevant: one visit can cover two machines, and a second job on the same call-out costs far less than a second call-out.
