Good points:: An exceptional machine - very quite and produces great cleaning results. Comprehensive programming options allows the user to choose from very quick wash cycles to money saving, longer cycles. Additional features like 'time left' display and self cleaning powder drawer demonstrate the thought that has been put into the design of this machine.
Bad points:: None as far as I am concerned.

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Excellent wash results.8kg drum.Numerous programs.1600 rpm.,
slower speeds can be overridden,on some of the wash programs,during a cycle.Nice clear design/functions on LED's,dial & buttons.Very quiet (except for drain pump which is a bit more vocal).
Bad points:: Out of balance sensors work o.k.,but are not perfect.Large 8kg drum does not particularly like small loads or when you only have a few large/kingsize bed sheets/duvets to wash as the washing can get positioned unevenly.The drum sometimes knocks as it builds up speed at around 600 rpm,(I would imagine most purchasers would ignore it but it niggles me).Occasionlly I have stopped the spin and repositioned the washing by pulling it around in the drum, but this is inconvenient as I am not confident to go out and leave it without it being monitored.Only time will tell if the extra vibration damages modern electronic switching.?One more grip regarding design.The small clearance between the underside of the machine and the floor makes it difficult to get a normal size spanner on the adjustable feet.I had to slightly jack up each side in turn in order to level the appliance.
Considering I bought the top of the range machine I think Bosch could have supplied a special thin spanner for the task.In order to minimise this issue of balance I strongly advise the use of a spirit level and make sure the locking nuts are done up tight against the underside of the machine.

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: This is the best washing machine I've owned in 26 years. It is really quiet, the door unlocks in an instant to add forgotten items and at the end of the wash, it has a touch control lock to prevent settings from being changed accidently during the wash and a beeper to let you know the wash is done. Each wash shows on the digital display how long it will take to complete the chosen standard cycle but you also then have a choice, if you wish, of using the speed button which makes the machine work harder but gives you the equivelant wash quicker or the eco button which uses less energy and takes a bit longer. A truly fab machine which is worth every penny. It really is quiet too, we can chat beside it whether washing or spinning with no increase in voice level, something I definately couldn't have done with previous machines.

Product Features

Construction	Built-in
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Drum size (Kilograms)	8

Type of loading	Front loading
This refers to where you can load the washing into the machine. Front loading is when the door is on the front of the machine and top loading is when you put washing in through an opening at the top of the machine. When purchasing a top loading machine, make sure you have enough room to open the hatch (top loading machines cannot be placed under a worktop). When looking for front loading machines, take note of which way the door opens so that you can make sure you have enough room to take washing in and out of the machine.
Energy efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient.
Width in cm	60

Height in cm	84.2
The distance from the very top of the product to the very bottom.
Depth in cm	59

Noise level (Decibels)	49
Measures how loud the machine is. For quieter machines, look for models with a noise level under 60 decibles.
Spin efficiency	A
The more efficient the spin, the more water will be extracted from your washing which means it will need less time in the dryer or less time on the line. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products the least efficient.
Energy Savings Trust feature	No
A Yes means this this product has been rated as being energy-efficient by the Energy Savings Trust. Good for the environment and good for your electricity bill!
Revolutions per minute	1600

Water control system	No
Helps to protect against flooding by monitoring any leaks from the machine. If a leak is detected, it will close the valve to stop any more water entering the machine.
Water Consumption in Litres (60° C)	56
The average amount of water your machine uses per 60 degree wash.
Display of remaining time	Yes
Tells you how long there is left until the end of the cycle.
Start delay option	Yes
Enables you to delay the start of the cycle. This is useful if you want to set the machine to go on during the night so that you can take advantage of cheaper electricity rates.
