Manual of product WAQ24488ES
Editorial note
The Bosch WAQ24488ES washing machine stands out for its energy efficiency with an A+++-30% rating, allowing for savings on electricity bills while being environmentally friendly. Its 8 kg capacity is ideal for medium to large households, and the varied washing programs, including specific options like Hygiene/anti-allergy and Quick, cater to diverse textile needs. Additionally, practical features such as a delayed start of up to 24 hours and a built-in LED display enhance the user experience. However, some drawbacks are worth noting. The spin noise level of 76 dB can be relatively high, potentially disturbing users, especially if the machine is installed near living spaces. The lack of a load balancing system could also lead to excessive vibrations, affecting the stability of the appliance during operation. Furthermore, while the plastic drum ensures some durability, it may raise concerns about its longevity compared to materials like stainless steel. Overall, the Bosch WAQ24488ES offers good value for money, with high scores in user experience (85) and ease of use (88). However, improvements could be considered in terms of robustness and repairability, with respective scores of 72 and 70, due to its weight and the materials used. The user manual, while helpful, could benefit from more detailed information to facilitate user onboarding.Score details
