Small Package, Big Features, Some Drawbacks

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, if your laundry space is small, your loads are also small, and you are willing to do a little more maintenance than you might with a more typical machine, this isn't a bad washing machine. It is expensive and parts and service are expensive, too. My biggest complaint is with the "pump filter" design. Bosch barely mentions maintenance on this part, but it should be called the "coin trap" or something more ominous. If you have a pet, hair will clog the trap, jam the cover shut, and eventually destroy the pump. Coins will do the same. It should be cleaned every month or so and you'll need a Torx driver to remove the two screws holding the totally useless plastic cover to get to the pump cover. The spin cycle is incredibly noisy and will vibrate your house like a paint shaker. ;-) I found a 1" thick rubber pad to put the whole stacked system on that quieted it down a lot. It's still a surprise when you open the laundry closet door and hear that jet engine sound.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this washer and dryer about 2 years ago. I am happy with the washer but the dryer gathers the items in a bundle like a roll after a couple of minutes of drying. I have to open the door and sort and separate the items a couple of times before the drying cycle ends. Sometimes I have to remove the items and dry them on the line.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product two years ago and loved it until the motor broke just under two years of use. I am a single person doing laundry once every 2 weeks on average. For a product under two years old this is ridiculous and I won't be purchasing Bosch washing machines again in the future. As a staunch fan of German products and engineering I am greatly disappointed.
Our Clothes Come Out Very Clean From A Gentle Wash

We've had this washer for two months now. Although it has taken us a while to get used to the small capacity, we are reminded of the fact that our children have grown and gone. For the two of us, this washer is fine. The wash cycles are quite long, but our clothes come out very clean.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Will not wash on Cold. No matter what you do! Child lock on door is extremely annoying and aggravating!
Lots of wash settings; I have to check the manual many times because there are so many. But I find the cycles to be somewhat long. And the 3 beeps after washing is rather annoying; it doesn't stop until you open the door.
