Works a treat

published

As I need a dryer that can cope with large loads this one proved to be perfect. Will handle do as and do a covers very well. Towels come out so fluffy. Even heavy work clothes can be dried in an instant. Would certainly recommend to family and friends !

Another good machine

published

We liked the equivalent Bosch washing machine so much (see other review) that we bought the matching drier too, Bosch WTW87565AU. Pros: gets the job done with bonus of removing any musky odours you get from clothes that stayed wet for too long; very quiet; uses hardly any power. Cons: Took a while to figure out the best cycle to use (i.e., “Timed Program”) to merely finish off clothes that didn’t fully dry on the clothes line; captures a huge amount of lint (need dispose of at end of cycle); machine bit expensive to buy. Overall would buy this machine again from Appliance Central (they are good).

Do NOT buy this useless piece of metal unless you are happy about hanging your items on a clothesline to finish drying them. This dryer leaves everything very damp, requiring overnight airing to get them dry. Salesman told me it was the best of the top of the range. Wrong. This dryer is not fit for purpose and should be recalled. Good Guys rang Bosch who said that dampness at cycle end was normal. Nowhere in the information does it say that this dryer only 3/4 dries items, no matter how many hours you try to dry them for. Useless in any situation.

great

published

We bought this a month ago and we’re very happy with the performance and functions. Has a slight learning curve, so takes some trial and error.
Slightly slower at drying than my old vented dryer, but this one is twice the capacity so not an issue.
Overall im extremely happy with the purchase.

Very energy efficient

published

After owning a couple of dryers, the only difference with this one is that it condenses. Which means you don't have to leave the windows or doors in the laundry open (*security).

The power bill is way less so you feel less guilty operating it. But you still need to empty the water tray (there's hardly any) and you still have to clean the double lint catchment.

The double lint catchment is good but still needs to design it so its easier to clean out the main catchment department.

Dries clothes but bedsheets and towels forget it

published

Bought this expensive dryer to replace an older cheaper one. Dries clothes fantastically however bedsheets or towels are a nightmare to dry. The drum only spins clockwise so bedhseets roll up into tight balls and unless you have the time every 15 minutes to untangle you end up with a half dry bedsheet. Towels are the same, not always completely dry when finished meaning has to go on again on manual heat setting. Very disappointed in the cost of this when this happens. Cheaper versions of Bosch I've had in the past were fantastic. Not worth spending the money on this version.

Its alright. We use only for 2 people and not very often. My friend recently bought this too and he is pretty happy with it. No major issues noted. Wish it had some smart functions, like an app through wish functions couldbe controlled. If this happens then it will be a little popular

Wonderful machine

published

Before buying a clothes drier, I read a lot of product reviews and finally settled on this machine. I have had it for 1 month now and am not disappointed. I love the fact that I get to chose how damp or dry my clothes are when they come out of the drier. In addition, one of the main reasons I decided to get a drier was that I could no longer handle having pet fur all over my clothes (my washing machine, which is another brand, obviously does a terrible job) and be a walking fuzz ball or sleep on furry sheets as hanging them up to dry did not remove it. This fabulous wonderful machine removes all the fur!!! I am very happy with my purchase.

Can't live without this dryer!

published

So power saving and clothes come out so soft! We have a new baby so it's been great for all the laundry that comes with that. And with all the little things it saves time not having to pin tiny socks and bibs up. Has never damaged my clothing. Would never go back to a conventional dryer. It's an expensive outlay but definitely worth it.

Good dryer.

published

Good dryer with useful selection of programs. only complaint with delivery/installation. after purchase through david jones, the machine was delivered and installed by bosch. delivery was prompt and i was keen to test it out. only after doing a load of laundry did i notice it was incorrectly installed by the company, with the condenser discharge hose not being connected to the sink, leaving the water to run on the back of the machine and over the new mashing machine below. contacting customer service didnt help as a service fee would be charged as they do not cover the incompetence of their own installers....

Good when it works

Great dryer when it works, got a replacement warranty, On our 3rd machine, have had dryer for 2 years and has stopped drying clothes twice so twice had it replaced, no Bosch service on Sunshine Coast so whole process to replace leaves us without a dryer for over a month, time wasted waiting for local service guy then waiting for Bosch service guy to come up from Brisbane to confirm not drying, never buying Bosch again

Bosch Serie 8 Heat Pump Tumble Dryers

The manual for the WTW87566AU Heat Pump Dryer is contradictory. If the dryer is being plumbed in, on page 35 it says to take the filter and rubber stopper out of the condensation container and put them in a little holding recess. In that position the filter is not actually doing anything, as it's just sitting in a dent in the upper moulding of the container. Then, on page 37 it says "Only operate the appliance with the filter inserted. So, which is it?

Also, even after moving the hose to the "parking position" as instructed in the manual, and connecting the drain hose to the sink drain, there is still water in the condensation container after each cycle. Is that supposed to happen?

Hi Mickalex, Thanks for your question. If the appliance drain hose is plumbed to drain the water, then the rubber stopper and the filter should be removed (and placed as shown in the manual page 34 to 35). Otherwise (using water tank) the rubber stopper and the filter should in place as shown in page 37.
Even after removing the rubber stopper there will be some water in the tank, the tank always hold some water, it will not drain completely.
If you would like to speak to someone, please feel free to call us on 1300 369 744. Regards, Bosch Home Australia

Thanks for your answer. Perhaps at the next reprint of the manual the text on page 37 could be amended to clarify that "you should only operate the appliance with the filter inserted" only applies if using the water tank.

Hi, the air is always cool on every setting except warm, is this normal or is there a trick to this?

Bosch H.Bosch Home Appliances

Hi Justine,
Thanks for your question regarding the Bosch dryer.
Cool air being expelled is not unusual as the appliances draw in cool air to keep the electronics and compressor cool. The hotter the cycle, the warmer the air being expelled would be. If the appliance is not completing the cycle or drying the clothes then there may actually be an issue.
If you need any more help, feel free to contact us on 1300 369 744.

Hi,
Thanks for the question regarding your Bosch WTW87565AU.
With the drain system the condensate container should not need to be emptied so it seems you have fixed the issue you had without realising it.
