Does this series have a heated dry function? I was told the 300 does not and I know the 800 will have the ultimate, but not wanting to wait and need a dishwasher in white. We are having to dry our dishes after cleaning in a GE Profile Ugh! null

Yes it does.  Use it all the time

There is not a traditional heating element, which is good and bad. The good thing is that any plastic cups will not melt. The bad thing is that you will have to hand-dry some of your plastic. For me, it was worth it to have a white dishwasher--which I waited on forever.

Hi Cath07, thank you for your question and interest in Model:SHPM65Z52N. All Bosch Dishwashers  have Pure Dry,  which is condensation drying. Bosch dishwashers' flow-through water heaters increase water temperature inside the appliances. The heaters can raise water temperature as high as 162 degrees Fahrenheit. The home hot water heater should be set to deliver approximately 120° F (49° C) water to the dishwasher. The final rinse uses high-temperature water to make the dishes very hot. The stainless steel tub of the dishwasher cools faster than your dishes because stainless steel cools faster than glass and porcelain. Condensation occurs when the moist air in the dishwasher comes into contact with the cooler stainless steel tub, and turns into water droplets. These water droplets trickle down to the bottom of the dishwashers and are drained. 
Since it’s a closed system with no fan, the cleaning process is more sanitary.
With no exposed heating element, plastic utensils and dishes placed on the lower rack will not melt. 
The use of rinse agents, such as Jet Dry®, aids the condensation drying process by reducing the surface tension of water. This in turn allows the water on your dishware surfaces to run off more freely, so they dry better.
This Dishwasher has the AutoAir Option, which automatically opens the door at the end of the drying cycle to let moisture escape and fresh air circulate for better drying results. Warm, humid air leaves. Cool, dry air flows in. The cool ambient air is heated up by the warm dishes. The heated ambient air absorbs water from the dishes. The drying is effective and saves energy.
