Guys,

I'm going to be buying a new W/D set in the next week or so so I need to either sell or dispose of my current set, a Bosch Nexxt 500-series pair (platinum color), including attached short pedestals.

The washer is in great working condition, mold free and has a built-in heater that'll get the wash up to 174F (!!), and can also do a cold-fill "profile wash" using it as well. I have the shipping bolts and original manual.

The electric dryer works OK, but has a few issues - it is noisy (ticky-ticky-ticky-ticky sound when running) but that doesn't appear to be causing any problems. Also, the moisture sensor / thermistor is a little iffy, so it will ~very occasionally~ not switch on the heater or, alternately, not stop drying, so timed cycles are your friend. If you're handy with such things you could probably fix it pretty easily and cheaply, as parts are still available (at least at RepairClinic.) I also have the original manual for the dryer.

If there's anyone within hauling distance of the pair - I'm just south of Nashville, TN - I'd like to get $220 for the set but you'll need to come get 'em soon.

The picture below is of a white pair, but it'll give you an idea of the look and feel of the set.

Email me if you're interested, or you can post any questions here. Thanks!!

Is any plastic around the front of the machine or the control panel cracked? That seemed to be a problem with these units.

Funny you should mention that...the very last thing I had done to it - in the waning days of its extended warranty - was to have the plastic control panel replaced because it had cracked. And sure enough, when I just now went downstairs and looked the new one has a tiny hairline crack coming out of the right front torx screw holding it on...ugh. Still, from looking at it disassembled the the control panel is not structural in any way so it doesn't appear to impact the operation of the washer. But since it has a lip that goes down towards the door it is probably under stress. That may be another reason why the Vision-series successors to the Nexxt (now also discontinued) were a flat-front redesign.
