Issue issue issue with this bosch front loader machine

This bosch front loader machine always has mold issue in the rubber gasket even though i always leave the door open. After I replaced the rubber gasket, the pcb is now burnt out. I ll avoid this machine since it just have problems one after another . I ll have to get a new washing machine during this tough time. Thanks Bosch.

Sensational Washing machine

published

I had to buy a washing machine quickly four weeks ago. My dream was a Bosch though I had to get machine at a budget. This one was only 100 more than the cheap one at Good Guys. Really happy with the model. Efficient with small amount of detergent required. Highly recommend.

Washes OK, but too many problems

published

Washes OK and is quite, however first week something got stuck in the outlet pipe and the entire machine had to be drained, and now after 3 months the seal st the front is damaged. Bosch's line is this is because of usage, not covered by warranty, $200 plus dollars to repair, blah blah blah. Look for something else.

Probably a good machine, however the operating instructions are very poor.

published

I've just purchased and installed an WAN22120AU, It's too early to comment on it's performance but I must say the operation manual leaves a lot to be desired, not a single mention of how to perform a drum clean and also the instructions regarding refitting to transit bolts when moving house are next to non existent.

Moves around very aggressively when spinning fast

published

Every time we run the washing machine, it moves around very aggressively and nearly knocks the dryer off from above it. It knocks open the laundry doors and makes a very loud noise! We have made sure that the machine is level.

How can we fix this?

Rubber seal faulty??

published

Is the rubber seal splitting a known fault with this model? My machine has just started leaking water through the door when in operation and it appears that the seal is faulty. Interested to hear other people's experience as this appears to be a common issues. If it's a fault - is it covered by the warranty?

So - would would I have a claim to make under consumer law? Surely the seal should reasonably last as long as the minimum warranty on the machine itself e.g. 2 years.

Very quiet & easy to use

published

Running so quiet & very easy to use, my 70-year old mom loves it so much.

What a very clever design of holes on the rubber seal to lose the drain to avoid mold.

Maybe my socket is too high, the wire is not long enough to me.

Simple, reliable workhorse

Got this as a replacement for my old machine of ten years. Although it has a conventional motor, not one of the magnetic brushless ones, its been quiet and efficient. Love it so far.

Very nice machine

published

My old LG died and want to get a better one. In my home country I had a bosch which was going good evening after 18 years. So didn't have a second thought and got this.

Am Happy with the performance, no complaints so far. (This model is made in China).

I bought this from appliancesonline and the installation was part of the cost. But the delivery guy refused to do the installation saying that he was not asked to do so. But that is a different thing. (I installed it myself)

The machine is fine and it does what it is best at.

Purchased in October 2021.

Hi there, Have only had the Bosch machine for about three years. During a wash cycle the RPM different options start flashing and beeping. The wash continues but this is obviously not supposed to happen. Is there an easy fix.

I have never had this problem, you could try unplugging the machine then starting again, this sometimes helps or go online to Bosch and put in your model number and sometimes they can offer solutions

How to clean drum

1 answer
Bosch Home Appliances
Bosch H.Bosch Home Appliances

Hi Jennifer W., Thank you for your question. We would recommend cleaning your washing machine every 2- 3 months. If there are odours in the washing machine, or if you just want to clean the drum, run the 'Drum Clean' programme or Cottons 90 C programme without laundry. Use a chlorine-free cleaning agent (1-2 cups of vinegar works just as well) pour into an empty machine. When cycle is done, wipe inside drum of washer with a damp microfiber cloth. If you need any more help feel free to call us on 1300 369 744. Regards, Bosch Home Australia.
