Bosch WGG25401GB 10Kg 1400 Spin Washing Machine

[@jacklee5876]

For future reviews I'd like a few comments on the noise level. From my research this seems to be one of the quieter ones than the competitors at the same price range but I could have missed out some brands / models. However, I liked that you pointed out about the depth due to the bigger drum size. Thanks for the video and for going through the buttons on the control panel, it's much appreciated.

My WFB 2005 from 1998 is still going strong as my daily driver

[@lords-electrical]

Great machines they were 👍

[@ShyamPrasad]

I love the controls of the certain previous Serie 6 models (like WAT286H9 ones). They have full touch display, much easier to select options like Temperature and Spin speed. I love the fact that this one as the cheeky little cover on the door, which is an excellent insulator if you wash at 60 or 90 programmes.

[@lords-electrical]

Cheeky little cover 😍

As a consumer like many, with today's busy lifestyles, all we ask for is maximum washing load, at minimum times, simples??? The first company to tap into this will win the market share? Thanks for your videos, they are very informative 👌

[@rodimousa9503]

Nice washing machine but about almost a month i got new washing machine from Haier 7 pro 10kg it’s very quiet and doing great job

This was really helpful in making a decision and understanding washing machines in general!

[@lords-electrical]

Great to hear this was helpful for you, thanks for the feedback

[@philforest4747]

Thanks Andy. Great video. Lovely machine. Bosch make the best washing machines

[@นุชนารถชาวโยธา]

I just buy this machine with idos in France thanks for this video

[@safirahmed]

The new Bosch Serie 6 doesn't have an indicator on the display for energy use and doesn't keep alternating the display between wash time and capacity but that may be because the washing machine door is closed. It would be nice to have a volume control button for control panel sounds and end of wash sound.

[@lesleylichfield8455]

Thank you I’ve just brought this machine and it’s been extremely helpful

[@lords-electrical]

Great to hear this was helpful for you, thanks for the great feedback

[@fieldsofomagh]

Bosch are pretty reliable and long-lasting. 10kg will do a big wash.

[@brian2220]

Bearing has started to go on mine after less than 6 years. Not that reliable

[@KinGzeDK]

@@brian2220 No brands do - especially at this price point. Last year I had to disassemble my Grundig from 2016 and tighten the concrete blocks on the drum and now the bearings has gone bonkers. That's why I'm looking at this.

[@GK-mh4ri]

Will be good to add what is the most popular wash cycle for a small family wash load

[@lords-electrical]

Really depending on the wash load you are doing but if it's a full load then really the eco 40 - 60 is the most efficient wash to do. Can take around 3 - 4 hours per load but uses less water and electric than a cotton full load

[@GK-mh4ri]

Thanks for your prompt reply.I will use that one

[@kirstywotherspoon8085]

I have just bought this machine and just put on the first wash...using the Eco programme. When I saw it would take nearly 4hrs and selected the Speed Perfect button, however, the light didn't stay on and the time didn't change. Have I got a faulty machine or can't I select Speed Perfect for the Eco programme? It doesn't say anything in the instructions.

[@lords-electrical]

It isn't a faulty machine, Speed perfect won't work with the Eco option unfortunately. If you want a quicker wash with the full load then you will need to select the Cotton program.

[@huggy1]

Thankyou so much for your review. Ordered 👍🏽

[@lords-electrical]

Great to hear it was useful for you. Thanks for the feedback

[@chriskate7]

Thanks just fitted ours today, good video 🎉🎉let's get washing😅😅😅

[@trevorphillips5786]

The series 6 Bosch tumble dryer. The cleaning by passing water through the heater does that only work when you connect the drain pipe rather than using the drawer to take the water ?

[@paulinehawley2768]

Thanks for the video it seems more or less the same as the Siemens new models.

[@lords-electrical]

Thats correct as Bosch and Siemens products are made in the same factories as each other.

[@thelaundrycookie1200]

these new ones look pretty good actually. although i wouldn't buy one because i'm not a huge fan of bosch.

[@brendawilkins7756]

I have watched several of your videos and am very impressed with your demonstrations. I have bought a series 8 10kg I-Dos machine and have been learning about the different settings before my machine arrives. I am still trying to find out if I can put the detergent most often used in the RH dispenser and a wool detergent in another and that the machine will select the correct detergent automatically. I do not use softener very oftern. Do I put the wool detergent in the softener compartment or the LH one. If I put it in the LH one is the wool or delicate setting automatic or does it become manual dosing on a wool cycle?

[@PrinCess-ig1cs]

Thanks for another excellent video. 🙏👏👏

[@sadiporter2966]

I don't suppose you know whether they will be releasing a 7kg model in the WGG series as they currently only make it in 9kg and 10kg?

[@lords-electrical]

Apparantly not. The 7kg market is rapidly in decline and the 9 and 10kg is increasing so over the next 12 months we will see a lot less smaller load machines

[@johnriley670]

Is there a video of special features please.I.e. setting drum empty warning

[@danielasarrico]

Hi thank for your video. It is really helpful I got a this machine but when I put the fabric softener, the machine washes it but it doesn't use it and it stays there. I put it in the mix loads program I don’t why it is happen Tks

[@huggy1]

Andy do I need a aquastop inlet hose? Can’t seem to find one? What do you think or can you recommend one. Or am I ok with the one it comes with? Many thanks in advance and great service you do, God Bless 🙏🏽❤️

[@lords-electrical]

If the machine arrives with a normal hose I would stick with that. The whole aquastop concept is good nut can sometimes be a pain to install. Also you may find that if you install a different hose to the manufacturers one then if there is a fault then bosch may not validate the warranty if its linked to the hose

[@huggy1]

I see, right il stick with the one it came with. really really appreciate all your help here also how quickly you replied back, God bless you, THANKYOU @@lords-electrical

[@raftonpounder6696]

Thank you.

[@KezraYoni]

I installed my 10kg series 6 and everything needed to do but I started the washing but when it’s spun it was vibrates so much and felt like it’s not stop jumping around, pls need help, thanks

[@lords-electrical]

This very much sounds like the transit bolts have been left in. Stop using it until you make sure you have removed all of the bolts from the back of the machine as it will damage it and not be covered under the manufacturers warranty

[@enzatoce8819]

Hi Andy, love love love your video on the control instruction features, I'm new to Bosch and am so happy with my new 9kg Bosch, a much bigger drum to my 12 year old 7kg LG. Just a question for you, on the drum clean cycle would you recommend using bicard soda for drum cleaning as I find this a perfect solution for my dishwasher or do you recommend something else?

[@lords-electrical]

Bicarb can be good for a machine, especially if you are using it from new, but we would normally just recommend doing a service was once a month where you put a 90 degree wash on with nothing in it. That can be as affective as using bicarb.

[@enzatoce8819]

Thanking you

[@jpwall]

Thankyou for the information! 😊❤🎉

[@lords-electrical]

Glad it was useful for you, thanks for the great feedback 😊

[@jennigee51]

I haven't been a subscriber for long, I find all your videos informing and interesting. Why don't you recommend the gel pouches?

[@lords-electrical]

On the whole if you are washing at low temperatures then the pouch doesn't fully dissolve and can congeal at the back of the soap drawer causing issues. We see it time and time again.

[@jennigee51]

That makes sense, although I never thought about it! Thank you for that 😀

[@colbrim9009]

We have one of these washers and my husband is concerned about the clunking noise it makes during the wash cycle. This occurs when it is rotating anti-clockwise and clockwise during the wash cycle. The machine is a year old. A technician came out to check it. Said all was fine. But my husband is concerned and thinks all is not well with the washer. Could you please advise if this sound is normal, thanks.

[@Susypame]

We have a similar situation, we bought it last Saturday, we turned it on, and I was in shock when I heard such a loud noise and I saw the machine moving so hard that it "walked" almost one meter far.

[@blakaeg]

@@Susypame Did you not remove transit bolts??? It’s no fault of machine! That’s why you should read the manual

[@Susypame]

@@blakaeg hi, you are right. We did not read the instructions before, then we did it. The problem is solved.

[@hitchjack]

Andy great video as always - does 10kg mean you can put 10kg of dry clothes in it? Do any machines have a live readout about how much washing has been put in like a set of scales? Also, what is the longest wash cycle you have seen on any machine?

[@lords-electrical]

Yes it is 10kg of dry clothes you can put in there. We don't have any machines now that have a live readout with the level of washing in. Siemens used to do a range of machines that had this feature on and it was brilliant. Longest wash cycle i can't really remember but it will be on modern machines at over 4 hours which as much as an ambassador for eco and long washes as i am, 4 hours is way too long really.

[@hitchjack]

@@lords-electrical that can be your challenge from now on, to find the longest cycle in your walkthrough vids! I guess 4 hours would be fine, we use our machine overnight to coincide with economy 7 so time makes no difference there.

[@brett9774]

How good is the spin

[@lorencing]

Thanks for the video. I am wondering which series to get, 4, 6 or 8 ... well, probably not 8 as it is a bit out of my budget. But what really bothers me is that there are like 5 models in the 4 series and 7 models in the series 6 and I have no idea what actually is the difference between them.

[@lords-electrical]

The main things that will vary will be the load size and spin speeds for the machine. Also on the some of the higher range of appliances, the display looks smarter and easier to read too.

[@MichelleGormley-k8i]

Hello, can you please tell me what I use in the drum clean programme on the bosch 10kg, thank you.

[@germanCrowbar]

Simply use the drum cleaning programme without detergent and the laundry drum will be cleaned automatically at temperatures of up to 90 degrees. Please only use the programme without laundry in the drum.😉

[@primrose64au]

How do I turn off the end of cycle beep????? Driving me nuts!

[@Displays.1234.]

No delayed start and only 2 years warranty so much for confidence in the product...

[@lords-electrical]

If you have a look at the new version, the WGG25402GB, it now has a 5 year warranty and the "Finish In" option is the time delay feature.

[@allthingshomeandgarden]

Anyone got any feedback on washing dog blankets/towels (with lots of dog hair) with this machine?

[@cormac2515]

Would you recommend this machine today?

[@lords-electrical]

Yes they are great machines and customer feedback has been very good

[@QueenAmethyst55]

How about reviewing some beard trimmers? Kidding. It suits you.

[@Ste2023]

is it noisy

[@RingerThomas]

Mine didn't spin at 1400 when unbalanced?

[@lords-electrical]

If the machine can't distribute the load in the machine if it is a small load, then it won't spin at the full 1400rpm. I would normally try and put in at least half a load to make sure there is enough in there for the machine to distribute around the drum.

[@primus6419]

Bosch👍🏻

[@ZanderKaneUK]

Does anyone wash at 20/30 degrees long term? Makes clothes dull over time, almost ingrained dirt.

[@lords-electrical]

You are right, that you still need a higher temperature to get clothes clean.

[@Vyker]

Sad to see they dropped iDos

[@lords-electrical]

Idos is still carrying on stronger than ever. Just not on this model unfortunately 😕

[@brunoshomelaundry2020]

You can still get the 9kg version

[@vaidal1233]

Bought this washing machine. Once it is on it starts slowly spinning the drum and water starts coming after some time. Does it do to anybody else?

[@taydemuk937]

It measures how much water it needs, watch after 11:44 :)

[@DeborahLudford-si1dv]

Really useful 👍

[@brandonrottman9533]

Why are the wash times so long on this?

[@GaryB007]

It's the same on a lot of modern machines, due to low temps and water usage. The machines also often reduce the time as the wash progresses depending on the load. I think Lords did a video on it a month or two ago.

[@brandonrottman9533]

@@GaryB007 ah got it. Yeah I realized those were for the full 10kg loads. But as it goes probably calculates time on what you put in? I have a whirlpool cabrio that normally only takes an hour or so, even on “heavy” soil setting

[@ShyamPrasad]

Modern washing machines are quite an energy and water efficient. Which mean it can do laundries with less water and at low temperatures, the trade off is longer wash times, though. It's like driving at 60 mph in the motorway, you have the most economal drive but reach the destination in a relatively long time.

[@brunoshomelaundry2020]

Because of EU laws, every machines now have Eco 40 60 to replace Cottons Eco and therefore cottons and synthetics on some machines are now longer

[@SiemensIQ700pro]

I had bad experience with Bosch washing machines so I wouldn’t buy again.
