New Bosch Logixx 8 Machines for Europe

[lavamat_jon]

To match the same styling of the dryers, Bosch are releasing 8 kilo Euro sized machines in Europe. Funky new paddles, a rip off of the Miele honeycomb drum, and what's more - made in Germany! They definitely are very stylish machines... link follows!

Also they have released vented versions of the new condenser dryers with windows, and are no longer rebadging Gorenje dryers .

Thanks Jon!!!!!! )

They look great!!! I like the LCD displays! I agree about the drum... I wonder where they got an idea like that, lol!

And I'm over the moon about the dryers... I loved the design of the previous condenser range...
I really wanted one… but I would have rather stuck with a vented dryer!
So should anything happen to the dryer we have… I can get a vented one with the cool door of the condenser

wow

they are pretty nifty looking machines - it was only a matter of time before other peeps started ripping off miele's ideas - wonder if this one has an interior light and if not who'll be the next to rip that one off!!

gotta give bosch credit tho! those paddles are pretty nifty! if they've addressed the water levels i.e aqua plus then im mega tempted by these models. there extremely nice lookin too! they remind me of the inovations of the range before "MAXX" models came in. E.g "WFF2000" awesome model. similar paddles too! And from reading the press release it seems they have recirculatory jets too.

Thanks for posting Jon

I really like the look of those machines, and the program dial looks fun (I like PowerWash60 und `mein program', ja?)
Made In Germany, good dryers to match.....could these be really quite an exciting and purchasable prospect? The styling of these is good. I've always loved the styling of Bosch dishwashers too.....

 

[aquarius1984]

the question is. . . .

will they last more than 2 years? Lol Nick x

 

[nickuk]

Possibly......

If they're made in Germany, mind you wasn't Jon's made in Germany which didn't last long?

Hm, hm, hm, Jon... I wonder where you got that information from? *lol* ;-)

Maybe from here:

Anyway, these new washers are built in Brandenburg (near Berlin). I don’t think they have an interior light, nor recirculation.

Here are some more details for y’all.

i believe jons old one was made there and i think its a shame it didnt last long. My mums next door neighbour though has has a maxx which is coming on for 7 years old now. Wan know how i know this? 8 years ago i peeped through the garden fence when they first moved in as you can see straight into the utility room. They had a servis slimline which was quite loud. They replaced it a year later and occasionally i peep through the fence to check the bosch is still there lol its not pure white anymore but seems to work fine. Im no peeping tom though.

Bosch...

True, but our old one was also bashed about by builders without transit bolts which contributed to the demise of the suspension and whatever, though getting stuck in the 2nd rinse was a fault of the PCB apparently. Plus mine was really stingy on water levels, whereas these new ones don't appear to be.

Who knows anyway - one of this may be sitting next to the Miele (and perhaps the matching vented dryer too) when the AEG washer bearings finally get too bad.
