Third-party reviews

What we like about Bauknecht B7X 89 SILENCE DE

  • Spin noise of 65 dB keeps the room calmer during the final spin.
  • A night option lowers the noise for washes after dark.
  • It uses 43 L of water per cycle and 33 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • Steam, anti-stain and anti-crease options help with everyday clothes.
  • A duvet cycle and a Baby Care cycle suit bulky and delicate items.
  • AquaStop protects against leaks, and pause and add lets you slip in a forgotten item.

What we don't like about Bauknecht B7X 89 SILENCE DE

  • Seven programs give limited choice.
  • There is no extra rinse function.
  • There is no outdoor or sport cycle.
  • At 73 kg it is very heavy to move.
  • The 60.7 cm depth needs a generous space.

Verdict

A spin noise of 65 dB is the main reason to look at the Bauknecht B7X 89 SILENCE DE. An 8 kg drum runs a night mode that keeps the noise down after dark. It uses 43 L of water per cycle and 33 kWh per 100 cycles, both modest figures. Steam, anti-stain and anti-crease options sit alongside a fast function, a duvet cycle and a Baby Care cycle. The 20 min fastest cycle is handy for a quick top-up, and the ECO cycle takes 215 min. Pause and add, a delay start and overflow protection round off the controls. The trade-off is a short list of seven programs, no extra rinse and no outdoor or sport cycle. It suits a household that washes at night and wants quiet cycles for delicate and baby clothes.
