Hi my shiny new all singing all dancing washer dryer might have a temperature problem. Which is ironic as that was the reason I retired the oh so lovely bendix lt! I noticed the other day I'd left out a vest type thing from a 50c wash. I paused it opened the door a popped it in. It was however only in 2 mins before it emptied and began rinsing. I was shocked as the clothes didn't feel at all at the correct temperature. So tonight I selected a cottons 60c. As it emptied I switched it off opened door and according to my el cheapo laser thermostat and even cheaper wooden and glass thermometer it was only registering 40c. ( there is no cool down on that part of cycle )
So I'm confused. As its a washer dryer it's door is double lined do I cannot do the " touch and feel it's at temp " id normally do ! Are there any Bosch wd users out there ? How do I report this to their repair service ? You're help as ever appreciated !! Richard |

Yes it's a great machine. I've read up on other websites and it seems it's normal what it's doing. It gets hot quick then tumbles for ages to use that heat then empties as it cools. I have to say everything is clean. But then again I'm not that dirty lol.
The wool wash is a bit too gentle I like to see some moment and suds. But it's a solid feeling machine. Price wise I could have got Bosch separates and part of me does regret this but it's a space issue. And it's handy for some loads to wash n dry through. There's nothing to stop me at some point adding a separate dryer. Thanks for your input Richard |
