    Overview

    The Bosch Series 8 10kg Front Load Washing Machine with i-DOS is engineered for precision washing, smarter efficiency and effortless fabric care. Designed to handle everything from single items to large family loads, it combines advanced sensing technology with intuitive automation to deliver consistently excellent results.

    The i-DOS system with Detergent Scan automatically measures the exact amount of detergent and softener needed for each wash, helping reduce waste while protecting fabrics. AntiStain technology targets up to 16 common stubborn stains without pre-treatment, while Hygiene Plus delivers a deeper, more hygienic clean that effectively removes germs even at lower temperatures.

    Iron Assist uses steam to relax fibres and reduce wrinkles by up to 50%, cutting down time at the ironing board, based on internal testing by Bosch. With a generous 10kg capacity, powerful 1600 RPM spin speed and Mini Load capability for single garments, the Bosch Series 8 Front Load Washing Machine with i-DOS adapts easily to daily laundry demands while maintaining quiet, efficient performance.
    AntiStain Automatic Removal

    The AntiStain system targets and removes up to sixteen of the most common stubborn stains automatically. By adjusting temperature, drum movement, and soaking time, it delivers effective stain removal without requiring manual pre-treatment.

    i-DOS

    i-DOS determines and dispenses the precise amount of detergent needed for each load, helping you achieve perfect wash results and save on detergent.

    Mini Load option

    Got a t-shirt to wash, but not enough for a full load? The Mini Load option is ideal for that. It lets you wash single items or very small loads up to 0.5kg and cuts energy usage by up to 40-percent.

    Iron Assist Steam Function

    Iron Assist uses gentle steam to reduce wrinkles on clothing by up to fifty percent. This feature refreshes garments and significantly reduces ironing time, making it easier to keep clothes looking smooth and ready to wear.

    Customers are overwhelmingly delighted, praising the machine's exceptional quietness during operation, even during spin cycles. The i-DOS auto-dosing system is called a "game-changer," eliminating guesswork and waste while benefiting sensitive skin. Reviewers emphasize solid German engineering and premium build quality, with many citing decades-old appliances as proof of durability. The 10kg capacity handles weekly loads in single cycles, with clothes emerging exceptionally clean and wrinkle-free. The intuitive touch interface and HomeConnect app for remote monitoring receive consistent praise. Most consider it worth the investment for long-term reliability and performance.

    Good machine, small fault
    Mostly positive experiences with the machine. Unfortunately there’s a fault with the sensor of the detergent draw which I’m still trying to have resolved. The machine is easy to use and very quiet.

    Amazing washing machine
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have had this machine for a couple of months now and it is big step up from our last machine. The app makes it even better and i love the detergent reservoirs. I have detergent in one and wool wash in the other. Very happy with the machine and would definitely buy again
