Anonymous verified purchaser , “Working mum with baby”

Score 10.0/10

+ Huge load depsite being integrated. Very simple to use.

- The direction the door opens cannot be changed which isn't ideal when it is to go behind a cupboard door being an integrated appliance. A digital timer to tell you how long is left on the cycle would be a nice to have.

+ This is a quiet machine with a big drum. The controls are easy to use and the washing comes out rinsed to a high standard.

- A bit on the expensive side albeit it is a BOSCH which I have found are very reliable. The instructions that come with the machine are poor and could be better laid out.

Angela, Middlesex

Score 8.0/10

+ Very easy to use. Has a wash function which can be used as a quick wash and is done in 45mins. Spin function is great! Has a drain hose when i need to empty the water, which is great! Other machines only have a dial and with the water pressure the water used to spill all over the kithchen floor. I can check how far along my wash is as well, it has a wash, spin, rinse, end, with red lights next to them and i can tell what setting my clothes are at. Overall a great machine! I love it.

- When its done it beeps until you turn it off, which can get annoying. Where as other machines the dial moves along as the wash progresses and turns off when the wash is done. With this machine you cant put a wash in and go to bed, and dry them in the morning. Cause the beeping will drive you crazy, not only that but the machine will stay on.

Score 10.0/10

+ Easy to install and the easiest integrated washing machine to level the rear feet as they are screwed up and down from the front. The wife says it hold loads more than our old indesit and it is almost silent in operation.
I never thought I could be so pleased with white goods!

- It is very heavy!

Nicola, Edinburgh , “picky purchaser!”

Score 8.0/10

+ Washes and rinses well. Spin is excellent and the machine is really quiet compared to our previous model.

- Not hugely hi-tech so no fancy digital display to tell you how long is left, etc. But unless you're in a hurry, who really needs to know that anyway?!!

- Price. Why should integrated washing machines cost more? They don't look as nice and are hidden behind a door. All integrated machines should have standard door fittings.

Jennifer, London

Score 8.0/10

+ Very easy to function. It's very quiet and even when it's on the highest spin it hardly makes a noise and doesn't move at all ( which I had with my previous machine). It washes like a dream, clothes come out of the wash so soft. I am also hoping that it's economical to run - I've had it for 3 weeks so have yet to find out.

- I found it a bit pricey as I had to buy an integrated model but I suppose in the long run it will pay for itself. There's not much else with the machine itself.

- The machine is rather noisy although it is built-in.
There is no indication of the time the selected programme will take. I have another Bosch - not integrated model - which has a small window giving the time left for the programme to finish and that is a very useful feature.
