Mountain of laundry that seems never-ending? No, thanks. Bosch's packed loads of neat tech into this washing machine to make cleaning a cinch. The 15-minute quick wash cleans clothes before you've had the chance to finish an episode of your newest Netflix binge, with sensors inside taking away the drama of choosing the right settings. Noisy spin cycles aren't an issue either - the direct drive motor keeps vibrations to a minimum. Best of all? It's A-rated energy efficiency. Mother Nature says thanks.

Freestanding design
This washing machine can be used wherever there's a connection. It'll fit under most worktops and can be moved around to suit your needs.

1400rpm spin speed
The quicker the spin cycle, the more water is removed, and the less time you'll have to wait for clothes to dry. 1400rpm means laundry won't come out dripping wet whilst ensuring things don't get too noisy either.

Intelligent Dosing System
i-DOS does everything automatically so you don't have to. By using the AutoProgram, this clever feature will measure the precise amount of detergent and water needed for your load, taking into consideration the load size, fabric type and degree of soiling. It means you get perfectly washed clothes each time whilst also being mindful of the environment, as nothing is used in excess.

Smart Connectivity gives you more control
Using the easy-to-use Home Connect app (available on iOS and Android) you can access and control this washing machine remotely. Select and start the programme you need whenever, from wherever, so it's ready when you are. It'll also send you a push notification to tell you when the cycle's finished.

AntiVibration reduces noise levels
Cleverly shaped to keep noise to a minimum, the AntiVibration design of the side walls provides more stability and reduces vibration during the spin cycle. You'll benefit from a machine that works quietly and doesn't disturb the tranquillity of your home. Plus, it'll give you more freedom over where you're able to place the appliance too.

EcoSilence Drive™
Keeping the washing machine noise down, Bosch’s EcoSilence Drive™ uses a brushless, energy-efficient motor to reduce friction. This not only keeps the noise down but also helps give the machine a longer working life.

SpeedPerfect reduces wash cycle time
SpeedPerfect is a special function developed for situations when time matters. Reducing washing times by up to 65% and compatible with most programmes, that mountain of laundry you've been waiting until the weekend to wash suddenly doesn't look so daunting.

Load laundy mid-cycle
Forgot a sock or your favourite t-shirt? No worries - the reload function lets you simply add missed out clothes or remove clothes during a wash cycle. Just press pause, open the door, add your forgotten items into the drum and continue the wash.

VarioDrum treats your clothes with care
Unique to Bosch, the VarioDrum structure means even your most delicate clothes get a thorough, but gentle washing. Water is distributed evenly and the paddles rotate the laundry to the centre of the drum, giving your clothes an intensive clean whilst avoiding stretching and creasing.

Timer delay
Choose the most convenient time for laundry to start. Clothes will always come out smelling fresh, and you'll be able to take advantage of off-peak electricity rates too.

Delicates programme
Wash silk, linen and lace as carefree as you would cottons. Chuck them in, select the delicates cycle, and enjoy a cup of tea worry-free.

Wool friendly washing
The days of shrunken knits are gone. This gentle programme ensures your winter favourites are always looking and feeling fresh.
