Awful
on May 4, 2023
Posted by: C-dub
Like the other customer, mine needs a mop out every dry cycle. My tray is also warped. This adds significant time when doing laundry and I do not look forward to using this appliance at all. Have not and will not recommend this unit to anyone. If you like to do one load of laundry a day and clean up this mess EVERY SINGLE LOAD, then this dryer is for you! Otherwise RUN AWAY as fast as you can. Complete waste of my time and my money. Extremely disappointed. I thought this brand was very reputable. And yes, the unit is level, and the lint filter and the heat exchanger are clean! Still happens!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Slow to dry
on October 20, 2023
Posted by: BigBLJ
We've had this dryer for 2 years now as a replacement to our previous stacker unit. It's a European dryer in all the senses. After living abroad and experiencing 'European models' I full heartedly understand what this means. I typically hang dry clothes and then use the machine to dry them for 20-40 min based on the need or space for the next load. Our winter loads dry quicker next to the radiators ---sad but true and the dryer serves as a fluff service. If clothes are ever fully wet, they'll never dry, and that's that. Our space is quite small so we are stuck with the Bosch stackable. Hope the replacement will be better when the time comes.

DO NOT BUY
on July 20, 2021
Posted by: SOSdryer
This dryer is awful. In the first year, the glass of the dryer door broke during a cycle - spraying glass all throughout the dryer. The dryer gets SO hot, it literally turns the temperature of my apartment up one or two degrees when running. Clothes are boiling hot, but still wet. Even with very small loads. Now, the exterior of my dryer is completely falling apart. The plastic on the top of the dryer is falling off in square pieces (no idea how??), the vent door is broken and cracked, and the handle of the dryer door is broken and cracked. I have used efficiency units before and never had any of these problems. Extremely expensive and not worth it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great dryer!
on May 2, 2021
Posted by: Wes T
We were looking for a stackable washer, dryer set to fit into a closet with no modification, but traditional outside vented dryers are to big to fit into the space without modifying the space and adding the needed vent to the outside. In my research I learned about the ventless dryers used mainly outside of the United States and then found the Bosch 300 Compact Condensation Dryer, which does not vent to the outside but instead uses a condenser unit to eliminate the water which is part of the dryer. We purchased the Bosch 300 dryer along with a Bosch 300 Compact Washer. They are stackable and easily fit into the closet space. The performance of the dryer is great! It is quiet and with the offered dryer settings, we have great control over how it drys for our laundry needs. Being ventless, there is no fire risk from lint buildup. You do need to clean the condensation unit which is easy to do. Cleaning frequency depends on how often you use the dryer, and for us it is every 3 to 4 weeks. The only drawback, if you would call it that, is that this dryer runs at a lower drying temperature which is good for your clothing and does lower the operating cost, but adds to the overall length of drying time compared to a traditional vented dryer. Differant technologies that once we learned how to use is no longer an issue. Dryer is quiet compared to our last dryer. Great dryer!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Perfect for small spaces
on July 31, 2021
Posted by: Trixie
I love that I do not have to vent through the outside walls of my 100 year old cottage. Perfect size for my space, stacked on 300 series Bosch washer. We have been Bosch fans for decades and they still don't disappoint

Zero stars wasn't an option
on September 2, 2021

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If condensate hose moves for any reason water backs up. Condenser must be removed between loads or nasty gel builds up quickly inside drain. Bosche dishwasher led me to believe Bosch could create wonders. The heat in my laundry room is unbearable throughout the spring and summer. This is the most overpriced useless appliance I've ever purchased.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Worst Ever
on September 8, 2021
Posted by: mellen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This dryer only works on large loads. Forget trying to dry a small load of anything. The moisture sensor will not register anything. The condensor holds water. Very annoying.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
