Manual of product WAJ24018FR
Editorial note
The Bosch WAJ24018FR washing machine stands out with its 8 kg washing capacity, ideal for families or households with a large volume of laundry. Its modern and sleek design, complemented by an LED screen, makes it easy to use and provides a pleasant visual experience. Additionally, the garment addition feature allows you to pause the washing cycle, which is a plus for those who often forget to add clothes. The built-in child safety and the high reparability index of 8.6 promote responsible and sustainable use. However, this model also has some drawbacks. Its energy efficiency class C is less effective compared to other models that reach classes A or B, which may lead to higher energy costs. The absence of the AquaStop feature raises safety concerns regarding water leaks. Furthermore, the lack of a load balancing system can cause excessive vibrations and noise during spinning, which can be disruptive, especially in open living spaces. Finally, the maximum washing cycle duration of 206 minutes may seem long for users in a hurry, even though a quick 15-minute program is available. In summary, the Bosch WAJ24018FR offers good value for money, especially for families, but it could benefit from some improvements in energy performance and features to ensure maximum peace of mind.Score details
