The Bottom Line:
I do not recommend Bosch washers or dryers because they take over an hour per load and are very noisy as well.
I had a Maytag front load washer and dryer for the last 7 years and the washer broke, for the first time. The repair cost wasn't worth the money, so off I went to research 'new' machines. I decided to go with the best Bosch washer and dryer, largest capacities with all the bells and whistles. We're a family of 6, so laundry is pretty important around here.
The washer is fabulous, if you have an hour or more to wait until the load is done, regardless of size. It truly washes the clothes cleaner and brighter with less detergent and brighteners. I can put up with the lengthy wash time because it does clean so well.
The dryer is only so-so, as to dry 6 pairs of adult jeans, it take about 1 1/2 hours, as opposed to my old Maytag dryer which was 30 minutes, tops! The other annoying thing about the dryer is it defaults to spinning for a few minutes after the clothes are dry and you can't turn that feature off. So it will spin for a few minutes to 'wrinkle release' your clothes until you're ready to fold the load, but if you want to leave the house, know that the dryer will keep spinning for over an hour before shutting itself off.
Both the washer and dryer make a ton of noise and the 'quiet antivibration technology' is not all that it's cracked up to be - both machines are noisy and the washer will shake, rattle and roll when doing a full load.
After 4 weeks, I gave the machines a good, honest try, but I'm returning the Bosch machines and leaning toward Electrolux, but still unsure about the brands at this point. I can't keep making an all day event out of washing and drying clothes.
