With a 9kg capacity that’s ideal for medium-sized households, this Bosch washing machine is an excellent choice for busy families. Whether it’s dripped toothpaste down a school blazer or a dirty P.E. kit that’s been hiding in the lounge, the 15 and 30 minute quick wash programmes are sure to save any Monday morning headaches.
Active Water technology uses clever sensors to weigh your laundry when you load the drum. This means the machine can work out just how much water, time and energy it needs to use throughout the cycle. So, you’ll save on your utility bills, without having to lift a finger.
iDos automatically adds the right amount of detergent to your wash. With iDos you can store a whole bottle of liquid detergent and softener inside the machine. This makes life easier because you only need to fill it up once a month and you don’t need to store bulky bottles in your cupboards. And, because you don’t have to guess how much to use, you can save eleven litres of detergent a year. This is about £70 back in your pocket.
The special wave pattern and shaped paddles inside the drum allows your clothes to move around freely. This gives your clothes a more thorough clean. It also means that your clothes move around the drum evenly so you’re guaranteed fresh, spotless clothing, every time.
This model has an EcoSilence Drive motor, which is quieter, more energy efficient and longer lasting than normal motors. Because it uses frictionless magnets instead of noisy brushes to power the motor, it’s great for open plan living. So, you can use it anytime of the day, even when it’s movie night.
This is a freestanding washing machine, so it won’t fit behind an integrated kitchen cupboard door. Just make sure you measure the space where you want the washing machine to live and add 7cm onto the depth to make sure there’s enough space for the pipes needed to connect the appliance.

Awesome machine, looks super modern and cleans really well. Its really solid and heavy machine, the delivery guys really struggled with the weight.

I have found it to be both easy to use as well as seems to get clothes clean. The only slight problem I have had thus far is that the water intake hose has a bit near the end of it that sticks out quite a bit farther than other washing machines I have encountered. This was only a problem in that I had to widen the hole in my cabinet to get it through.

Great machine so far, only 1 week old thou! Really pleased and straightforward to use. Haven’t used all the technology yet, but looks easy enough. I like the display that illustrates the difference in power and water consumption dependent on programme selected- has made me rethink the programme I use and switch to a more efficient option already. These are longer, but the delay start allows you to load before bed and it to start whilst your still sleeping. Its quiet enough so it won’t wake you. Cleans the clothes really well.

Excellent Washer, very quite and has lots of settings. Like the wifi as it send a message when its finished and also low on detergent etc

Having had my previous Bosch washing machine for 17 years, I had no hesitation to purchase another, once I came to grips with the electronic display, and with the help of a YouTube video the machine is as I expected Excellent – very quiet with a large capacity drum and with an automatic soap/softener dispenser it saves adding manually to every wash – I would not hesitate to recommend this reliable brand
