Compact and does a good job washing.

Fits perfectly for the limited amount of room. We stacked the washer and dryer. It does vibrate more than expected and could be that it's worse with the dryer stacked on top. The washer may have moved a little by itself, but the dryer makes it a little more top heavy, creating a little more sway. Or at least I hope that is the reason. We wipe the washer door gasket dry and leave the door open a little and have no problem with odors that other complained about.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed

[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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love my Bosch washer!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought an Axxis washer (and matching dryer) almost 8 years ago, and I'm still in love. I researched my options extensively beforehand. Even if you don't need a compact/stackable option I would still recommend this line. It not only has more than enough wash cycle options, but the buttons are nice. Also, when the dryer stacks on top, I can still see all of the controls! No joke, I'm 5'4" and can't see the dials on some of the stackable out there.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first Bosch washing machine having owned Miele and Asko in the past and I can say that hands down, this is the nicest machine I've owned out of the three brands. For the money, quality, ease of use and customer service, it beats the competition by far and I am thrilled with my purchase!

Exceeded my expectations!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this washer, and the matching dryer last year, because we live in a relatively dry environment, and a condo, where getting HOA approval to cut in a vent would have been difficult. I have to say, this washer and dryer REALLY exceeded my expectations, as long as you researched a few things before you bought them. 1. The clothes may feel damp until you take them out of the dryer, and the "delicates" setting for the washer and dryer both follow the advent that "delicates" come out damp dry and need to be hung up to fully dry, which I knew about going in. Really, this thing washes and cleans better than the washing and drying machines in our units main laundry facility for renters. I don't think I could be happier, and it seems to draw lower wattage than the last stackable we used. As a matter of fact, I can't really find any issues with it. HOWEVER, FOR THOSE EXPERIENCING POOR WASHES, MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE THE TRANSIT BOLTS, READ THE MANUAL. I have seen 10's of 20's of youtube videos where people complain about their washer making a terrible noise and getting poor results, and in almost all of them it was because they just plugged them in, did not follow the manuals instructions, and ran them with the shipping bolts in, which permanently damages the machine. Bad consumers are bad, it really is a great product otherwise.

Nothing else like it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've owned my Axxis set for six years now (these new models are the same machine, just different aesthetics); people either love or hate the Bosch Axxis. This model is better known in Europe where it is a very popular workhorse. What makes the Axxis unique to other washers on the market is that it is a 240v hookup (as opposed to 120v) and that allows it to heat water dramatically faster. Additionally, by activating the "Heavy Duty" option it does a tap cold fill (regardless of which temperature you select) and heats the water to the selected temperature. This allows the different enzymes in the soaps be activated at different temperatures, allowing for cleanest clothes I've ever experienced. People who don't like the Axxis generally complain that it is too small (its a compact washer!), that it gets moldy (they're not leaving the door ajar), and that they can't use bleach (you don't need it!). The soap you use matters greatly, its a European machine and was designed around their detergents, Persil powder works wonderfully. Hope this helps!

Well built, solid machine

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this washing machine to pair with the ventless condensing dryer, as I have this installed in an ultra-airtight, Passive House-inspired whole house remodel. The ventless dryer was necessary, as you must minimize the number of penetrations in the building envelope. So, that was the driver behind the purchase. We are super pleased with the machine. We've been using Tide HE detergent and our clothes seem cleaner than before. There has been no soap residue left behind in the soap tray after washing. The spin cycle really gets the clothes dry with a minimal amount of vibration. I have the two machines in a dedicated laundry room beneath a countertop. I placed the machines on some left-over 3/8" rubber floor tiles (think exercise gym tiles) and they haven't moved an inch after a month and a half of doing laundry for our family of three.
Maybe the only minor flaw is that after each load (or set of loads, if we're doing a bunch back to back) there is a small amount of standing water in the rubber door opening gasket. It is easily wiped out with a rag. We then also leave the door open a crack. We're in Colorado, so things dry out pretty quickly. We've had none of that 'high-efficiency' washer odor whatsoever.
The machine is a little smaller than the monstrous ones we're used to in the States, but it has not been an issue, as we're only a family of three.
I would recommend this to a friend!
