"We purchased the Bosch washing machine to replace a very noisy machine. The Bosch machine is much quieter but don’t think it’s silent, it isn’t. I must say I think the build quality of the machine is excellent. The ability to adjust the back feet from the front of the machine made levelling the machine so easy. I like the light in the drum, don’t know why but I do! The machine came with a shutoff valve that connects to the water supply. If you have cutouts in the back of your units you may have to enlarge them as the valve is quite big. My only criticism is that there is a lack of wash programs and there is no provision to adjust temperature etc and no short quick washes. It’s important to check if you are replacing a washer that the decor door fits, they are not standard.
In spite of these issues I would still recommend because of its build quality."

"Replaced our previous Bosch (lasted 10yrs) this is quieter, love the light in the drum and you can stop and add something if you forgot to put in!
downside is a lot of cycles are long (when comparing to my previous bosch)
there are 2 models on market at time,(Oct 2017) I bought the wrong one without quick cycle.. so buy the right one!
if you want a cotton cycle, your looking at 3-4hrs.. so 6 cycle choices I will never use... just don't have that long to wait!!!
so I am only ever going to use mixed load and easycare 30 or easycare 40...
a shame as I like my towels & bed linen at 40/60 cottons.... bought dettol laundry cleaner instead for them, (along with calgon for every wash)
I don't find manual easy- gives you all the different cycles but does not tell you what they do.. unless I'm missing paperwork, gives name of cycle but no description.
the cleanliness of items- washing kids clothes with mud on, using usual detergent, and vanish stain remover as standard does not make them cleaner than my last machine... mud stains do not get removed....
installing- we replaced old bosch with new- it doesn't fit in like old one... not sure why, it was put in and out many times to check and it does not go as far back... so kitchen cupboard door is not flush like the other cupboard doors....
so overall I would not recommend..."

"i inherited a washing machine with the house I bought (a cheaper integrated one) and when I finally broke I bought myself another trusted Bosch as I’ve bought a few in the past as I’ve moved a few times, well the difference is amazing, quicker, cleaner, quieter & much dryer due to the 1400 spin.. brilliant energy Saving and really good quick washing facilities.
An added bonus, you can turn the end beeping off on this model."

"Nothing to dislike, hopefully it will last as long as my previous Bosch (14 years)"

"We replaced our old Bosch integrated washing machine with a new one and we must say that we're very pleased with the result - another great machine that will probably last the 10 years that the old one did.
We've got a Bosch integrated dishwasher, a Bosch dryer, a Bosch hob & oven so could say we're fans of Bosch - we've always found them to be reliable, good value for money and long-lasting."
