market_region=uk (source domain www.bosch-home.co.uk) highlights: Best energy efficiency class A (A to G). The energy label, specifies the efficiency class (from A to G), noise level, capacity, energy and water consumption of the relevant washer. Our Bosch washing machines reach the best energy efficiency class A while delivering perfect results. | Speed Perfect: Cuts the cycle time by up to 65%* without compromising on results. When time is of the essence, washing machines with Speed Perfect can cut washing time by up to 65%*, without compromising your results. Speed Perfect can be used in combination with most programmes, and with all load sizes and fabric types. For example, you can select the mixed programme along with Speed Perfect to thoroughly wash up to four kilograms of clothes. ** Difference between the duration of Easy Care Programme 40°C and the duration of Easy Care Programme 40°C in combination with SpeedPerfect option. | Anti VibrationTM sidewall: extremely stable and especially quiet, thanks to special vibration protection. The innovative Anti VibrationTM sidewall provides stability and reduces vibrations. The enhanced insulation regulates noise levels, making Bosch washing machines extremely quiet, even during the spin cycle. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your Bosch washing machine will operate smoothly and silently, without disturbing your daily activities. Upgrade to a washing machine with Bosch Anti VibrationTM sidewall and enjoy a more peaceful and efficient laundry routine. | Active Water Plus technology adjusts water usage to suit the load size and fabric type, helping to optimise water consumption for each wash.* Washing smaller loads shouldn't mean using more water than necessary. Active Water Plus technology uses sensors to automatically detect the load size and fabric type, then adjusts water usage accordingly. This helps optimise water consumption for each wash while delivering excellent washing results.* *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: forgot an item? Add it easily to the wash. Forgot to add a sock, or a stray t-shirt? No problem! The Reload function lets you easily add or remove clothes during wash cycles*. Just press the Reload button and open the door, then add your forgotten items and continue the wash.*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: hygienic washing, effectively killing germs even at 40°. Sometimes clean just isn't clean enough. That’s why we developed the Hygiene Plus programme. It keeps the temperature during the wash cycle constant and an additional rinse cycle is added to ensure hygienically clean laundry, effectively killing germs and house dust mites. The result: hygienic washing results that kill 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: gentle washing thanks to a unique drum structure. In the past, your favourite or most delicate clothes may have been damaged in the wash. The unique, patented VarioDrum system uses even water distribution to gently and efficiently wash all types of clothing - without stretching, creasing or damaging your most beloved items. Depending on the selected programme, the droplet-shaped design, with asymmetrical paddles gently rotates your laundry to the centre - regardless of the rotation direction. This not only ensures an intensive clean for more heavily soiled clothes, but a quicker, more thorough clean for the entire load. | Quiet Wash Option: reduces the speed of your drum for a quiet wash. The Bosch Quiet Wash programme lowers the noise levels of the cycle to avoid disruptions and maintain a peaceful household. | Programme for gentle cleaning of dark-coloured laundry, such as jeans. The Jeans / Dark Laundry programme is optimised to avoid streaks that can sometimes appear on your garments after washing and to care for coloured items. | DrumClean with reminder function: ideal for cleaning and maintaining the drum. After 20 cycles under 40°C, your washing machine will automatically remind you to clean the drum using the 'DrumClean' feature. Simply run the programme to ensure your clothes continue to be properly cleaned to perfection. | Super Quick 30: Faster washing when you need it. With Super Quick 30, you can now wash your clothes in just 30 minutes, without compromising on cleanliness . Whether you have a last-minute event or simply need your clothes freshened up in a hurry, this innovative function has got you covered. Designed to deliver outstanding results, Super Quick 30 ensures that your clothes are thoroughly cleaned and ready to wear in no time. Experience the convenience and effectiveness of Bosch's Super Quick 30 and make your laundry routine faster and more efficient than ever before. *suitable for a 4kg load | TimeDelay Function: select any time in the next 24 hours for when you want your clothes to be ready. Now you can delay the start of your washing cycle, so your clothes are ready for when it is most convenient. If you are going to bed, you can simply delay the start-time, so it is ready for you in the morning. With Bosch washing machines that offer the TimeDelay Function, you can choose a time within the next 24 hours for when your clothes are ready. | Sportswear programme: gentle care for your active wear. The sportswear program is the ideal way to care for modern microfibres and coloured fabrics. Low wash temperatures and a short spin protect the fabrics, while a brief tumbling reduces creasing.
