      Hi,


      Bosch has quick wash function too but was advised during home demo that itโ€™s not clean and to use the full-cycle.

      The 1-hr full cycle is for half load (3kg) only. Hence for full load of 7kg and full cycle wash, the only option is 2.5hr.

      Anyone used Bosch before, can share experience?

      ๐Ÿ˜Ž

        I will be getting a top load washing machine as my MIL dislike front load. Really like to try out front load as it cleans better & gentle on clothes & save water. Too badโ€ฆ Most probably will be getting a LG or Samsung. My LG has been with me for 10 yrs & no repair at all.

          Iโ€™ve used a front load Bosch since we got our own place about 7 years ago. Yes, it can take very very very long, so I have to just time my washes accordingly. e.g. no doing laundry at 10pm (unless I choose the quick wash).

            Hi csc


            Maybe because different model, so wash time different. ๐Ÿ˜‰

            csc:
            Not true for the washing cycle for my Electrolux front load Washer. There are a number of functions you can choose from. So you can opt for the fast wash - 30 minutes or for 1-2 hours wash for curtains and bed sheets.

              We use the quick wash (40mins) on our Bosch for regular/daily laundry; and only use the full cycle wash (about 2 hours) when washing bedsheets, towels and jeans.

                I do not exactly know the difference between front load and top load washing machine. But I am using a top load washing machine for ages. I have been using my GE washing machine and I don't have any problem with it.

                    Mine is a Thomson top-loading machine.


                    It is small and compact.

                    Its almost 10 years since I bought it.No issues so far.

                    [hope I didn't jinx it] ๐Ÿ™

                      our electrolux has been with us for 10 years now still like brand new leh no problem at all.

                      front-loading is better coz u can see whats happening inside but top loading u can open the top n disrupt the machine to retrieve something maybe a comb or coins.

                        I read somewhere that front-loading is more energy-efficient than top-loading.
