Manual of product WIW24342EU
Editorial note
The Bosch WIW24342EU washing machine stands out for its integrated and elegant design, allowing for perfect harmony with various interiors while optimizing space. With an intuitive LED display and convenient controls, the user experience is enhanced, making it easier to use on a daily basis. Additionally, its advanced technologies, such as ActiveWater™ Plus and EcoSilence Drive™, ensure optimal care for textiles while minimizing water and energy consumption. However, some points may pose problems. The energy efficiency class C may lead to higher energy costs in the long run, especially compared to other models offering better energy performance. The lack of a self-cleaning function may also require more frequent manual maintenance, which can be burdensome for users. Furthermore, while the noise level of 41 dB during washing is satisfactory, the noise of 66 dB during spinning can be disturbing in quiet environments. The washing capacity of 8 kg is adequate for standard use, but may not be sufficient for large families, thus limiting the efficiency of washes in one go. Finally, the maximum cycle time of 206 minutes may seem long for those needing a quick wash, and the absence of a load balancing system could affect the stability of the appliance during unbalanced washes. In summary, the Bosch WIW24342EU offers a good balance between design and practical features, but certain aspects such as energy efficiency and noise during spinning may be factors to consider before purchase.Score details
