Editorial note

The Bosch WAQ28442 washing machine stands out for its energy efficiency with an A+++-20% rating, allowing for savings on electricity bills while minimizing its environmental impact. Its modern and integrated design, combined with intuitive controls, makes daily use enjoyable and practical.

The lack of a load balancing system can lead to excessive vibrations, affecting the stability of the appliance during washing. Furthermore, the 7 kg capacity may prove insufficient for large families or for those washing bulky items. The maximum duration of washing cycles, which can reach 240 minutes, might seem too long for some users, while the spin noise level of 74 dB could be disruptive in a quiet environment. Finally, although the delayed start timer is an asset, it may seem limited compared to other models offering more flexibility. Overall, the Bosch WAQ28442 offers good value for money due to its performance and features, but it is essential to consider the specific needs of your household before making your choice.
