Bosch series 6 washing machine

Absolutely delighted with our new machine. Super quiet even when spinning and clothes come out spotlessly clean with no tangles. If you're interested in getting a new machine this one is highly recommended.

New- so my review is based on recent use

My previous Bosch washer died after 11 years of heavy use and being as pleased as I was with Bosch I decided to purchase another. The positives so far: quieter than my old machine, more features and options, a bigger drum, anti-stain feature and it doesn’t make an irritating sound when it’s finished like my other one did. I clicked the anti-stain for my son’s white football socks and they look like new! I was surprised. Cons: the touch sensor to select programmes is a little sensitive- it pauses after brushing against it with my clothes. The drawer feels flimsy. I am always worried when opening it as it feels like it won’t last as long as it should. Another worry is that I have applied for the free detergent etc and some other offers and I haven’t heard anything. I just hope it materialises… Overall I’m really happy with my purchase.

Whisper-Quiet & Effortlessly Smart – Love My Bosch

Just got my brand-new Bosch Series 6 WGG254F0GB washing machine, and I couldn’t be happier! The near-silent operation is a game-changer—no more loud, disruptive cycles. The i-DOS system takes all the guesswork out of detergent use, making every wash super efficient. Clothes come out spotless and fresh every time. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a top-quality, hassle-free washer!
