Whether you are looking for a washer and dryer, a freestanding washing machine or an integrated washing machine, we have all the answers for you.

In this guide, you will find out which product to get, based on the needs of your home, your available space and the budget you have in mind. 

What Types of Washing Machines Can I Get From Bosch?

Bosch has been perfecting their electrical goods since 1886. With the highest level of engineering and user-friendliness in mind, they crafted the best-performing machines in the industry. Their washing machines are fit for purpose, energy-saving, and quiet, making them the ideal home appliance in the Uk and beyond. 

They have 3 main categories you can choose from:

Bosch Washing Machine

Bosch Washer Dryers

Bosch Tumble Dryers

All of the above come as free-standing as well as integrated to ensure that they fit your home perfectly. 

What Size of Washing Machine Do I Need?

When buying a washing machine, one of the most important features you should consider is the size/drum size of your washing machine. To ensure that your appliances are as energy efficient as possible, for a family of 4, an 8kg drum is recommended. If your washing machine is too big, it will use more water and electricity, however, it could give a more thorough wash for your clothes due to having more room.  A smaller washing machine with a 6 or 7kg drum will be comfortable for 1 or 2 people, and due to its size, it’ll easily fit into compact spaces. Washing machines with drums of 9kg and above will comfortably fit a king-size duvet set, so depending on how often you are looking to wash and the number of your household as well as your budget, this could also be a fantastic choice. 

Which Type of Washing Machine is the Most Energy-Efficient?

With the gradually rising costs of electricity, looking for a highly energy-efficient washing machine is on many households’ bucket lists. 

Currently, on our site, you will find washing machines with an energy rating between D-A, indicating the energy efficiency level of each machine. A grade-A washing machine or washer dryer is the most efficient choice, and rating D will give you the least energy-efficient option.

Washing Machine vs Washer Dryer

Deciding whether to buy a washing machine or a washer dryer depends on a few factors. As a rule of thumb, if you live in flats, where you don't have an outside garden or have limited space, then the most practical choice will be the Washer and Dryer. This 2 in 1 is the perfect compact companion that will allow you to clean and dry your clothes conveniently, not having to worry about drying your garments on the radiator or looking for sturdy clothes airers. Airing your clothes in a small area can lead to dampness and mould in your home, which can be easily avoided by investing in a washer and dryer. 

If on the other hand, you have access to a bigger home, preferably with a garden, then a washing machine or a separate dryer and washing machine could be the best choice for you. With more space in your tumble dryer, your clothes will be less likely to crease, providing you with long-lasting freshness and crisp clothes without the dread of the ironing board.

Whichever appliance you chose from Bosch, one thing is for certain. You will be investing in the best quality washing machines and dryers on the market. With their user-friendly features such as EcoSilence drive which is a quiet programme feature, their excellent energy efficiency, and durability, they are designed to make your life at home easier.  At Joe Graham & Son, you will find the most budget-friendly Washing machines and washer-dryers in London, and for more information, feel free to get in touch with our team.
