After comparing several compact washer brands and models we decided to go with the Bosch. It took about 2-3 weeks to be ordered / delivered. Unfortunately, I was not home myself at delivery and installation because I would have made them take it back right away. The machine requires a 240 V connection ! (And not the type used for dryers, see picture of the 3 prong plug.) Nowhere in the entire specifications page on the BestBuy website is this tiny detail disclosed. The 240 V requirement and plug renders this machine about useless in any CA laundry room I have ever seen. Well, I went to BestBuy the next day and they made arrangements to have the machine picked up in a few days, and promised a full refund. Still can't believe the dude who delivered the washer and just left it there with the power cord on top.

Great space saving product. Works easily and quite.

This washer provides all the options I need and fits nicely into the former utility closet in my closet. It does take longer than top loading washers, but I no longer have to go the laundry room to do my laundry!

This was an open box item so I got it for a good price. My last Bosch was over 10 years old and still functioning but it seemed like the right time to replace. Love the spin on this machine as the clothes are fairly dry when done cutting down on dryer time.

I ordered this telephonically. Salesman did not inform me I HAD to buy the dryer in order to plug the washing machine into the power. It's a 220v appliance, so no quick swapping the plug out to use the appliance. It's for a second home and delivery of Bosch appliances take weeks. So I still have to order the dryer before I can try the washing machine out. Will be buying the dryer from Lowes. All my appliances in my home are Bosch.
