    Is this one of the "smart" / wifi connected models? If so proceed with caution, certain cycles won't work unless you sign up for an account and log in + connect via wifi.

    • DRM for washing machines?

      No and also not true.
      Only their top of the range Series 8 10kg Washers and matching Heat Pump are Wifi capable and they can be used without wifi or connecting to the internet.

        • Your just reading that wrong.
          It means you need the app ONLY if you want additional wash cycle options that are not already on the machine, it's not stopping you from using the washing machine…

          • @Retailing: No I understand you can use the basic functions but they restrict certain functionalities to app only, for example half load, eco mode & delay.

            • @Captain Yobbo: That is not correct, all of those functions are ready to go without the need for WiFi.

              You are providing a link to a youtuber in the USA for a dishwasher which is not only a different product but also a completely different range compared to what is offered here.
              It is the same situation with the Bosch dishwashers, all the major functions are there without the need for WiFi.

              The reason people connect their washing machines and heat pump dryers to WiFi would be mainly so they can pair the washer and dryer.
              This means when the washing machine is finished, the dryer automatically selects the correct function.
              Sometimes it is to save a "favourites" cycle or for others they have a "smart" home so they connect their home appliances to their devices like tablets, phones, Amazon Alexa, Samsung Bixby etc. so they can control via voice or their device and for example see how long is left on the cycle when you are away from the laundry and outside the house or just be prompted that their laundry or dishwasher is finished.
              An impressive feature on the top end model of Bosch washing machine ( WGB256A1AU ) is the ability to scan your detergent/softener through the app and it automatically adjusts the iDos system to be super accurate.

                @Retailing: The video clearly shows you need wifi connectivity via the app to access certain cycles/functions. Regardless of who or where the video creator is, the HomeConnect feature is present in models - dishwashers & washing machines - sold in Australia also. You admit "major functions" are enabled without the need for wifi. We've established that. The point is, certain features, are not. Why would I bother using an app so one appliance knows the other is finished? Why does a dishwasher need wifi connectivity? To tell the cupboard the dishes are x percent dry? And this bullshit about needing an app to know when the cycle is done…since these things were invented you know the cycle duration from the outset. Most people have watches and an arbitrary sense of time. This supposed innovation is just a sneaky way of grabbing usage data & diagnostics under the guise of an enhancement. What I can't fathom is why you're shilling so hard for it.

                • @Captain Yobbo: Like I said, the video is irrelevant to our market as the cycles and functions you are mentioning are already accessible on the Australian models.

                  Read what you wrote "for example half load, eco mode & delay." As I said these functions are on the appliance and accessible without WiFi required.

                  Home Connect is just there as an optional part of the appliance and is not required or locking you out by any means like you are trying to suggest.
                  You may not use it yourself but the vast majority of the market does.
                  If you look at any major brand of appliance now with Air-Conditioners, Fridges, Washing Machines, Dryers, Dishwashers, Ovens, Cooktops, Rangehoods etc. it all has WiFi connectivity as an option. All your major brands have it like Miele, AEG, Bosch, Electrolux, Fisher Paykel all the way to the cheaper brands like Hisense, Haier and the list goes on.

                  Cycle duration is also not always fixed, with appliances becoming smarter for efficiency by controlling load/wash times. People want to use the apps to set time frames for their devices to operate for better rates. There are many more factors of why people utilise these features but you are clearly so opposed to it and this comment says enough "sneaky way of grabbing usage data & diagnostics under the guise of an enhancement".

    Apart from specific Click Frenzy and eBay codes, this machine actually has a code called WASH-CLOTHES cycle apparently :)

    Think I'd rather pay more for a German-made Series 6

    • Series 8 is German made. Honestly, I think Chinese made but foreign owned is fine. Much different to Chinese made and Chinese owned.

      • +2

        That is correct that Series 8 Washing Machines are manufactured in Germany.

        The Series 4 are Poland, Series 6 are Spain, Series 8 German.
        All are Bosch factories, which is why I would also agree there is nothing wrong with Bosch products at this price point as the key components such as pumps, motors etc are actually the same.
        Bosch have just discontinued their last Chinese manufactured model which is the Series 6 10KG ( WGA254U0AU ) and a new Spain manufactured model is coming soon which is a bit more efficient and has a steam cycle.

    Just be aware that you can't stack a heat pump dryer on top of the WAN series washing machines, they're not as deep as the other models

    • Are the WGG ones stackable?

      • Yes.

    • That is incorrect, that was only true to the older gen 8kg machine as it was shallow in depth.

      • Find a stacking kit compatible with this one then…

        • +2

          Easy! It's based on the dryer not the washer is how the compatibility works with Bosch laundry appliances.
          Most people purchasing this washing machine would be looking at the Series 4 8KG Heat Pump - WTH83001AU and the compatible stacking kits are a pull-out shelf model WTZ11400 or the basic version WTZ20410.

    This is a lucky deal.

  • I have the previous model Series 4, made in Poland. Very happy with it. It’s quiet and doesn’t shake the whole house when it spins. Clothes come out clean.

    • I would recommend the Bosch from a reliability point of view and my comment in the post below is a bit of in depth example of efficiency and wash control.
      If you wanted those functions of steam or automatic detergent dosing, there is a good deal with Appliances Online for a Bosch Series 6 9KG iDos Washing Machine (WGG244A9AU) for $1,160 delivered.

  • If you buy gold extras, washing machines under $500 are eligible for a 3yr replacement if a fault occurs.

    If you pay over $500, nope, you get to have your machine repaired instead.

  • Is it true that buying higher capacity (9kg) consume more water and power than lower one? For example, wash 6.5 kg of clothes in 9kg wm will consume more than 7kg wm?

      It really comes down to how you use the washing machine and the Bosch washing machines have "Active Water Plus" which means they can sense the load and only take in the required water based on how much is in the drum, so 256 water levels it can detect to be efficient but still comes down to the settings of how you wash.

      The Energy and Water ratings you see on ANY Washing Machine are rated on the most efficient cycle which is the "Eco" program which takes a very long time, often 4+ Hours as this is the most efficient way to run a washing machine.
      The more time is has, the less water it needs to pump in and heat up and less rapid wash action of moving the drum.
      If you do faster washes, you use far more water and power.
      This is why it is a common misconception that doing a quick wash at 15, 20 or 30 minutes is better as it is the least efficient cycle and always designed for a small capacity load often under 3.5KG.

      The Bosch washing machines have the option on most cycles to turn off the "Speed Perfect" button in which the washing machine will use the sensors "Active Water Plus" to gauge the load and only put in the correct amount of water based on the garments in the drum, baring in mind the washing machine will take control of the wash time but won't take as long as the Eco cycle.

      So it is a great way to run a washing machine efficiency if you are not too pressed for time. The Bosch will still have quicker wash cycle options such as 1 hour, 30 minute & 15 minutes for smaller load capacity.

      • Thought the active water plus was on for all cycles? Seems to work well. Cant see a water level in normal washes unless anti stain is on.

        • That is correct, but if you select options like Speed Perfect or wash cycle like Quick 15 for example to make the machine run faster you are not running the machine as efficiently and will naturally use more water and power.
          That's why it is great that Bosch offer the ability to load sense and take control of the wash time to run your wash efficiently based on the load and not just give you a quick option and eco option like most brands do.

          • @Retailing: IIRC dont think the series 6 and lower have a load sensor? Not sure how rhey measure load. Yes I notice the drum rotating more vigorously in the shorter cycles.

            • +1

              @mordinhoz: All Bosch washing machines have load sensors.
              Water comes into the machine and a sensor detects to 1ml accuracy, another is detecting water pressure and absorbency of the garments with the water that remains and then can fill to 256 water levels to only bring in and heat up the water that is required.
              That's why the machine with Speed Perfect turned off will originally show a long time frame of say 2 Hour and 30 Minutes and once you put everything in and press start, it takes about a minute to gauge what it going in inside the drum and then the time frame drop dramatically to say 1 Hour 20 Minutes or whatever is required to balance efficiency.

              Overall very clever and durable machines that give you a lot of control and options to cover pretty much every consumer with how they might want to use the machine.

              • @Retailing: So what's the best cycle to use for a family kinda everyday load (big) if not pressed for time?
                And what's the difference in water/power usage?

                We currently just use the 1h one.

                • @AncientWisdom: If you have heaps of time then Cottons Eco is the most efficient full load cycle that is rated for the full capacity of the washing machine.
                  For example, if you look at the consumption data for this particular machine ( WAN24126AU ) the Cottons Eco cycle will allow up to the full 9KG load at 60 degrees and use 78L of water.
                  Then the normal Cottons cycle for the same full 9KG load will use 82L of water.
                  And from there it is reduced capacity cycles at 5KG or under using 61L for a 4KG load or 35L for a 2KG and it is all dependent on the wash cycle and settings.

                  All washing machines when selecting a quicker wash will be rated for a smaller capacity load, so the 1 Hour ( Speed Perfect ) reduces the recommended load size to 5KG maximum as Bosch are being realistic in wash capacity at 1 hour for 5KG for when the goods are soiled.
                  The machine won't stop you from putting more in and won't be the end of the world if the goods are lightly soiled but you have to be realistic that if goods are heavily soiled then it needs more wash time.

                  For example, the worst front loader I owned was a 10KG AEG and if I put it on a 1 Hour ( which they rated at 10KG ) it would not even remove the stains from the collars on business shirt.

                  If you use the link below, and go to page 50 it will show you the examples of consumption of this posted Bosch washing machine.
                  I find that only European brands will actually show you this type of data as they are much more regulated compared to the rest of the market.
