    This 8.5kg front loader washing machine from Bosch has energy saving features and a family sized capacity. The EcoProjection feature shows energy and water consumption for each program for more energy saving options. The intelligent dosing system (i-DOS) uses the precise amount of detergent for a cleaner wash with less guesswork. This German made washing machine also boasts a 4.5 star water rating and 4.5 star energy rating for a more environmentally friendly household and reduced running costs.
    Quiet operation

    Enjoy saving money on your electricity bill by washing during off-peak times thanks to the EcoSilence Drive which ensures greater stability and quietness making sure every wash is quiet enough to not wake the baby or disturb you while you sleep.

    I-DOS Water & Detergent Saver

    Bosch have created a unique and intelligent i-DOS detergent saving system that determines the precise amount of liquid detergent needed for each load. Each time a cycle starts special sensors within the drum detect the load weight, fabric type, as well as the degree of soiling for the automatic programmes, and adjusts the amount of detergent accordingly. Save water by preventing additional rinsing due to detergent overdosing thanks to i-Dos.

    Get rid of bacteria easily

    Use the Drum Clean program to ensure your washing machine tub is clean allowing the WAW32640AU to clean your clothes bacteria free wash after wash. There is also a handy drum clean reminder function which lets you know when your next drum clean is due.

    Keep your floors and carpets safe

    Rest easy knowing your floors and carpets will be safe in the event of a plumbing malfunction with Bosch's AquaStop anti-flood protection. This technology shuts off the water if it detects a problem during a wash cycle.

    Love this machine
    I've had this machine for almost 2 months now and it's fantastic. Very easy to use. Love that I don't have to load washing liquid and fabric softener each wash. Clothes seem very clean but it is also gentle. Lots of options for temperature and spin speed and very accurate timer.

    Disappointed
    Had this machine for only 5 years, then now just leaks water on cycles, E23 error. For the price you pay not really acceptable.

    Simple and Quite
    Connected it up and ran a drum clean cycle as per manual, very surprised at how quite it was the whole way through the hour long cycle. (Loudest part was the water running) just did our first load and all seams good.
