Class A Energy Efficiency
Designed to deliver flawless cleaning performance while keeping running costs minimal, this Bosch washing machine achieves the highest energy efficiency rating of class A on the standard A to G scale. The official energy label clearly details its top-tier efficiency class alongside exact water and power consumption, capacity, and operational noise levels, ensuring you enjoy superb laundry care with optimum resource savings.
Speed Perfect
When you need pristine garments in a hurry, Speed Perfect reduces cycle times by up to 65%* without sacrificing wash performance. Compatible with virtually all programmes, load weights, and fabric varieties, it effortlessly adapts to your needs—such as pairing with the mixed programme to thoroughly clean up to four kilograms of garments. *Difference between the duration of Easy Care Programme 40°C and the duration of Easy Care Programme 40°C in combination with SpeedPerfect option.
SilentPowerDrive
Unwanted appliance noise can disrupt your peaceful home environment, which is why the advanced SilentPowerDrive was developed for our washing machines. By utilising an intelligent brushless motor, it significantly minimises mechanical friction to deliver remarkably quiet running and an exceptionally long operational lifespan.
Anti Vibration™ sidewall
Enjoy greater stability and serene quietness across every wash cycle with the pioneering Anti Vibration™ sidewall. Featuring upgraded acoustic insulation, this specialised casing dampens vibrations and keeps operating noise to an absolute minimum, ensuring your Bosch washing machine runs smoothly and quietly even at peak spin speeds without disturbing your day.
Active Water Plus Technology
Caring for smaller laundry loads should never lead to wasted resources. Intelligent Active Water Plus technology incorporates precise internal sensors to automatically assess fabric types and load weights, adjusting water intake accordingly to secure pristine cleaning while optimising consumption.* *Active Water Plus automatically adjusts water consumption depending on load size and fabric type. Comparison based on Eco 40–60 programme with reduced load versus full load per cycle. Water savings of up to 50% may be achieved depending on load size and programme selected.
Reload function
Never worry about leaving a stray sock or forgotten t-shirt behind again. With the intuitive Reload function, you can pause active wash cycles at the touch of a button, open the door, and insert or take out garments before resuming the programme with complete ease.* *As a safety feature, you can’t use Reload if the suds are hotter than 50°C or the water level is too high.
Hygiene Plus
For laundry that requires deeper sanitation, the specialised Hygiene Plus programme maintains a constant temperature throughout the wash and introduces an extra rinse cycle to effectively eradicate allergens, dust mites, and bacteria. It provides clinical cleanliness by destroying 99,99% of common germs even at 40°C.* *Bosch washing machines with the ‘HygienePlus’ wash programme at 40° and 60° fulfill scientifically recommended conditions for 99,99% of germ reduction for Enterococcus Hirae and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, according to Honisch et al. 2014, "Impact of wash cycle time, temperature and detergent formulation on the hygiene effectiveness of domestic laundering." Conducted by University Rhine-Waal.
VarioDrum
Protect your favourite garments from stretching, creasing, and wear with the patented VarioDrum system. Engineered with a distinct droplet-shaped surface and asymmetrical paddles, it distributes water evenly while gently guiding textiles toward the centre of the drum in either rotational direction, providing a deep, rapid, and protective clean for every fabric type.
Super Quick 30
Refresh your wardrobe in a flash with Super Quick 30, an innovative cycle engineered to clean garments impeccably in a mere 30 minutes. Perfect for preparing last-minute outfits or streamlining busy laundry days, this programme ensures thoroughly cleaned clothes ready to wear in no time without compromising on standards.* *suitable for a 4kg load
TimeDelay Function
Take total control of your daily routine with the flexible TimeDelay Function on Bosch washing machines. Whether you wish to set your laundry to run overnight or have freshly washed garments ready just as you arrive home, you can easily programme the cycle to finish at your convenience within a 24-hour window.
