Disappointed
Disappointed. Paid 1700 AUD expecting to get a good washing machine .
I wash different clothes pj, shirts t, t shirts, boxers, kids clothes etc . Use the mix option .
I don’t get the clothes clean and after the cycle it is completely soaked .
It maybe the cycle I use . Can anyone suggest which would be better cycle?

Quiet, simple, efficient
This machine has plenty of program settings to wash any type of clothes. I have a toddler and a baby on the way as well as washing tradie clothes. It covers all bases. Some Bosch machines have allergy settings but you just need to press Rinse Plus and wash longer to gain the same outcome. You can wash a king size quilt instead of taking it to the dry cleaners which I love.
Without the speed perfect setting the cottons program is 3 hrs which is just too long for me so I always leave it on speedperfect. The cottons setting is the only program whi...Read more

Worst front loader I have every had
Active family of 4 so lots of washing. Went with Bosch based on reviews on here and wanted a good European brand. Washing of clothes was never really great then washing machine completely broke down - all out of warranty. Only owned the machine for 2 1/2 years. Never again for me. Extremely disappointing

Who needs a cleaner with this machine
We run a bed and breakfast so have a lot of linens and towels to wash in limited time. The Bosch meets our needs in every way. The available cycles allow a very useful range of options from quick but thorough washes to deep cleaning and almost sterilizing washes.
And no trips to the dry cleaning shop because the washer’s delicate cycles take perfect care of the clothes requiring special attention.
The spin speed options are excellent and depending on the speed the laundry can come out almost dry.
Water safety features such as automatic shutdown gives you peace of mind.
The Bosch is versatile to meet all of your laundry needs. No need for a cleaner;)
Purchased in April 2021 at The Good Guys Physical store for $850.00.

Fabulous Washing Machine
I have been converted from a top loader to a front loader and this Bosch washing machine is amazing. I love the quick wash at 15 minutes and the long ne’er wash cycles do a great job too. The adjustable spin cycle is great and so much better for our clothes. Highly recommended

Best Machine I've ever owned
I love this washing machine, I put on a mixed load which takes 1hr 10mins, or a quick load which is an impressive 18 minutes when I'm rushed and the results are always outstanding. It runs through the cycle so quietly and beeps at the finish to let you know your clothes are ready to hang out or place in your dryer.
I don't even use laundry bags any more for my delicates, as the Bosch is so gentle it's no longer necessary.
I wash everything from casual, to work clothes and even some 'hand wash only' items in my machine and they all come out clea...Read more

Great value for money
Working on a farm for us usualy means relly dirty clothes, not any more what a great machine. Never have we had such an easy to use machine that washes away the stains and dirt so effortlesly. Highly recomend this machine to anyone who needs a heavy duty washer at a fraction of the cost. Wash cycles are fast and the spin cycle works great.

Simply the best ever washing machine.
Used many of the wash cycles and all with excellent results and cycle times including cotton, mixed, delicate and quilts with very good cycle times. It is quiet during operation and has programmable start time so I can set it to wash during off peak times. It has features such as auto dosing of washing liquid and fabric softener called IDOS which saves handling time. Only have to add detergent and softener about every 2 months! Other features that are handy are being able to manually adjust dosages for more soiled items and the fact it can be paused if anything needs to be added. It has washed doonas and quilted bed spreads in a large load very competently.

Great Machine Very Happy
Purchased this front loader a couple of months ago after 25 years with a top loader. I was a bit nervous at first with all the different settings but have since found my way thanks to this site and YouTube.
Machine is so quite, detergent and water saving amazing. Selection of settings takes the guess work out of washing.
Cycle times can be too long but ‘Speed Perfect’ button solves this problem.
Only down side of a front loader in general is bending over to load and unload the machine and making sure I wipe the machine and leave the door ajar to prevent mold build up.

Cleanest clothes ever
Purchased 14 months ago, this is my first front loading washing machine. I love using less detergent, knowing it uses less water and electricity, and have noticed an improvement in removing stains. Very happy with my purchase.

Perfect for the Job.
Brilliant Bosch! Washes extremely well!! We have found using Omo liquid detergent in the machine works brilliantly. Always open the door and leave to air when machine is not in use to avoid mould building up. Open the dispenser draw regularly to air for the same reason, avoiding mould. Wipe bottom of rubber seal after each wash. Also run a drum clean every couple of months, to maintain. Best quality & efficient washing machine I could find for the money. Excellent! Would highly recommend to anyone.

Hi,
Does any one know if the drum has a coating on it, what type of stainless still this is made out of? Want to use a cleaning product but don't want to damage the surface thanks
3 answers
It’s just a stainless steel drum
Thanks Kaz, so there is no coating on the stainless steel? There are a few different types of stainless that is all.
Bosch H.Bosch Home Appliances
Hi Lesli,
Thanks for the question regarding your Bosch WAW28620AU.
There is no coating as far as we are advised. As long as you use chlorine-free cleaning agents and don't use steel wool there should be no side effects. If there are odors in the washing machine, or to clean the drum you can run the Drum Clean 90C program without laundry and only adding washing powder.
If you need any more help, feel free to contact us on 1300 369 744.
