When buying household appliances, many consumers strive to make the only right choice - they carefully study the technical nuances, carefully read the reviews of real users on various sites on the Internet, consult with friends and acquaintances who have been using automatic washing machines for many years.
For many years, the Bosch washing machines have been considered an unrivaled leader among the lineup of analogues. Masters from service centers call them the most reliable household units. Today, most models are manufactured not in Germany, but at Polish factories, but this fact does not affect the reliability of operation.

Bosch washing machines
The use of innovations, vast experience in the production of various household appliances, stable superiority over competitors in assembly quality and reliability, allows the German concern to maintain a leading position in the international market. Rating of washing machines of different brands held annually, and the presence among the leaders of the Bosch models is a constant.
Drums like VarioSoft differ among their analogues in greater capacity, and a special system called Fuzzy Control provides constant control over the flow of water and electrical energy. In addition, the inner side of the loading hatch is made asymmetric, which allows the laundry to be moved in a horizontal plane during rotation of the drum.
Advantages and unique features of the Bosch brand are as follows:
- Durability and reliability. Of particular value to users are models with an assigned service life of at least 14-16 years, even when the machine is assembled at factories in other countries, because the concern strictly monitors the brand's reputation.
- All equipment has only the highest class of washing.
- Energy class A ++ or A +, but this does not apply to washing machines with dryer from Bosch.
- Profitability, thanks to the function of automatic weighing of linen during loading, a specific dosage of detergents and water, depending on the degree of contamination.
Attention! In recent years, a program has been built into all models to identify 14 varieties of laundry. - Built-in Aquastop system: the solenoid valve instantly shuts off the water supply when a sudden leak is detected.
- Measurement and constant control of the level of foam.
- The special design of the drum allows you to wash different types of fabrics and knitwear, all things will look like new.
- Weighing before the spin mode in order to correctly select the rotation speed and to eliminate the occurrence of imbalance.
There are modifications with vertical and front loading type, economy and premium models for reputable customers, while the weight of the washing machine is constantly changing.
Naturally, products under the Bosch brand are not without drawbacks:
- the cost of some models is slightly overestimated in comparison with analogues of other manufacturers, but the unsurpassed quality is probably worth it;
- many models are manufactured outside Germany, which affects the build quality and reliability;
- judging by user reviews, some products are endowed with a high level of sound impact on others, but this fact is not reflected in the quality of washing;
- for models with vertical loading, the parking function often does not work correctly.

Now rarely where, you can find this German-made washing machine. So, from the washing machines, I chose a hotpoint. She has the ability to reload laundry during washing. More functions at the same cost.
I bought an Indesit washing machine 4 years ago. Good machine with basic features. It erases quickly, which is very important for me.
