Description

The Bosch WGE0340CNL (series 2) washes the bedding of a double bed quickly and energy-efficiently with an A energy label. That way, you save up to € 220 on your energy costs over the lifespan. A full drum with 8kg of laundry is clean in 213 minutes with the energy-efficient eco cycle. This means your sheets are clean after 3.5 hours, which is relatively fast for an energy-efficient cycle. Are you in a hurry? Choose SpeedPerfect to shorten the washing time even more. You can wash towels or underwear extra hygienically with the Hygiene Plus cycle. This allows you to wash just above 60°C, so you can better remove bacteria and allergens such as pet hairs or pollen.

Durable?

Reasonably priced
Simple
No old-fashioned quality

For me, durability and quality are the most important points when it comes to household appliances. I was therefore very disappointed that I had to throw away my AEG 7000 series washing machine after 2.5 years due to irreparable defective bearings. The machine may have been economical, but on balance it is the most inefficient, environmentally harmful and most expensive appliance I have ever owned. The tests by organisations such as the consumer association are actually completely worthless. What does it matter if you can save a litre of water and a kilowatt here and there if you can throw away the entire machine after a few years. And all those gadgets may seem nice, but hardly anyone uses them. In fact, only durability tests and repairability should be leading when purchasing household appliances. I will be the first buyer of a washing machine that will last another 20 years. In the meantime, I have to make do with this Bosch that will hopefully last more than 5 years.

Does what it's supposed to do, and does it very quietly!

clean laundry
delicate wash programs
doesn't make much noise
fragile filling tray

I've been using this Bosch washing machine for a while now for all kinds of laundry, from towels to sportswear and delicate fabrics. What immediately stands out is how quietly it runs — even during the spin cycle you can barely hear it. The laundry also comes out nice and clean and fresh, so nothing to complain about there.

There are a few minor things: the filling container feels a bit fragile, as if it could easily break off if you're not careful. And I think it's a shame that you can't adjust the temperature yourself for some programs — that would give you a bit more flexibility.

All in all, very satisfied. Does what it's supposed to do, and above all, nice and quiet!
