Manual of product WTG86401
Editorial note
The Bosch WTG86401 dryer stands out for its modern and elegant design, with a white finish that harmoniously integrates into various interior decors. Its condensation drying system ensures quick and efficient results while optimizing space usage. With a generous volume of 112 L, it allows for drying a large amount of laundry at once, which is a considerable advantage for families. However, there are a few drawbacks to consider. The noise level of 65 dB can be relatively high, which might be disturbing in quiet environments, especially at night. Additionally, the lack of light inside the drum makes checking the laundry difficult in low-light conditions. Although the energy efficiency class is B, this means there are more energy-efficient models on the market, which could lead to higher electricity costs in the long run. Finally, its weight of 42 kg can complicate its movement and installation. In terms of user experience, the product scores 75, thanks to practical features like the remaining time indicator and delayed start. The drying performance, while effective, is slightly hindered by a cycle duration of 126 minutes, rated at 70. As for durability, the stainless steel drum is a strong point, with a score of 80. The value for money is considered fair, but the product's weight may influence the perception of overall value, with a score of 72. In summary, the Bosch WTG86401 is a solid option for those looking for an efficient dryer with a sleek design, but practical considerations should be taken into account before purchase.Score details
