Simon, Gwent

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: As a domesticated chap (!) this is my second Bosch washing machine; my old one having expired after 9 years hard labour. Did not hesitate to go for another and this one represents excellent value for a quality machine. Its quick, quiet and laundry comes out extremely clean.
Bad points:: The "wash finish" alarm would wake up the neighbours!

Good points:: A quiet machine, even at high spin. Does a good job even on the very short 15 mins cycle.
Bad points:: Door is a bit difficult to close successfully: you only realise it's not tight when the machine fails to start.

Good points:: easy to use and can amend programs - eg increase spin speed etc. Cycles are very quick. Very quiet in operation. you can delay the start time which is really useful - can set start time.
Bad points:: keeps on beebing at the end of the cycle and there is no way to turn the beeb off - especially annoying if you use machine over night - however there is a timer facility so you can delay the start time and that means the clothes aren't left damp in the machine.

Dawn, Ashton-under-Lyne

Score 7.0/10

Good points:: Very quiet and has a 15 minute programme which helps when you don't need to do a full wash.
Bad points:: The time of the programme cycles are not always correct which I feel is very misleading. More often then not, a 50 min cycle will last for much longer which isn't ideal considering that I bought this machine for its stated short programmes. Also, the 1400 rpm only works on certain programmes.

Score 8.0/10

Good points:: It has one knob selection of washing programme and display shows all the details you need to know. One can select the water temperature separately to the programme and importantly it shows how long the wash has left. It then beeps when finished which is useful but can be annoying if you don't get to machine quickly.
It seems to clean better than our old machine. It automatically adjusts amount of water it uses depending on how much you put in it, so it makes you feel green. The energy rating is good.
Bad points:: No real bad points as such, it is quiet but not as quiet as I expected. The length of the standard washes can be long, but maybe this is necessary. Have only had it a few months - I am most interested in reliability. If it lasts 10 years I'll be happy.

Type of loading	Front loading
This refers to where you can load the washing into 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.
