    Great washing machine
    We have been using the Bosch front loader for 6months. It replaced our Fisher&Paykal top loader. We have been really impressed with the build quality and the many features of this machine. The clothes come out perfectly washed each time. Highly recommend it.

    Questions & answers

    How do you clean the filter. Is there a video to show this? Linnie · 2026-02-21
    Hello Thank you for your product question. Front load washers do not have a lint filter because they don’t produce lint. However, every front load washer is equipped with a pump guard, which protects the internal pump from unnecessary objects that could affect its performance. You can find information about this in the user manual. For the Bosch model you mentioned, there is a round door at the bottom that provides access to the pump area. To check it, follow these steps: 1. Open the round door by unscrewing it. 2. Place a towel underneath to catch any water that may spill out (a few liters may come out). 3. Remove any debris and clean the filter guard. 4. Replace the guard and screw the door back into position. 5. Close the door flap. It's a good idea to do this a few times a year. I hope this information will assist you when shopping with us at Appliances Online. Our Sydney-based team is available 24/7 to assist you at Ph: 1300-000-500. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    How does Bosch handle their water inlet? Our current LG is problematic with water hammer. jonow · 2016-02-17
    Hi Jono, Thank you for your enquiry, Bosch has specified that this particular unit can handle 1 bar of pressure. This means that it has a maximum capacity of 10L per minute and anything above this limitation will cause the machine to bring up error codes. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our customer service team 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call us on 1300 000 500. Kind Regards, Paul Customer Support Consultant Paul Lee, Appliances Online
