What we like about Bosch WQG24200IT Serie 6

  • Heat pump drying reuses warm air, so it runs cooler.
  • A 9 kg drum takes a full load for a small family.
  • The A++ energy class keeps running costs in check.
  • The 84.2 cm height fits into tight spaces.
  • At 59.8 cm wide it sits neatly in a standard gap.

What we don't like about Bosch WQG24200IT Serie 6

  • At 50.1 kg it is hard to move for cleaning behind it.
  • At 61.3 cm deep it sticks out a little past a standard cabinet.
  • A 9 kg drum means a larger family needs more loads.
  • Carrying it up stairs needs two people.

Verdict

Heavy at 50.1 kg, the Bosch WQG24200IT Serie 6 is a dryer you set up once and keep in one place. It uses a heat pump, which reuses warm air rather than venting it, so it runs cooler. Its 9 kg drum suits a couple or a small family that dries a load most days. The energy class is A++, which keeps running costs in check for a drum this size. At 84.2 cm high, it is low enough to slide into some tight spaces. It is 59.8 cm wide and 61.3 cm deep, so it sits just past the front of a standard cabinet. The trade-off is weight. Moving it means a two-person lift, and it needs a firm floor. It suits a buyer who wants an efficient dryer in one spot.
