Hygiene Plus

Sometimes clean just isn't clean enough. That’s why Bosch developed the Hygiene Plus programme.

The result: hygienic washing results that kill 99,99% of common germs even at 40°C.* *Bosch washing machines with the ‘HygienePlus’ wash programme at 40° and 60° fulfill scientifically recommended conditions for 99,99% of germ reduction for Enterococcus Hirae and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa, according to Honisch et al. 2014, ""Impact of wash cycle time, temperature and detergent formulation on the hygiene effectiveness of domestic laundering.” Conducted by University Rhine-Waal.

Large LED touch display

Ergonomically positioned, the touch display elements light up when the machine is switched on. Thanks to the large display and clear user interface, you can quickly and effortlessly select and set the right programme.

VarioDrum

The unique, patented VarioDrum system uses even water distribution to gently and efficiently wash all types of clothing - without stretching, creasing or damaging your most beloved items. Depending on the selected programme, the droplet-shaped design, with asymmetrical paddles gently rotates your laundry to the centre - regardless of the rotation direction. This not only ensures an intensive clean for more heavily soiled clothes, but a quicker, more thorough clean for the entire load.

Anti Vibration sidewall

The innovative Anti Vibration™ sidewall provides stability and reduces vibrations. The enhanced insulation regulates noise levels, making Bosch washing machines extremely quiet, even during the spin cycle. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing that your Bosch washing machine will operate smoothly and silently, without disturbing your daily activities.

With Bosch washing machines that offer the TimeDelay Function, you can choose a time within the next 24 hours for when your clothes are ready.
