Third-party reviews

What we like about Bauknecht BW 719 A

  • 45 kWh per 100 cycles keeps energy use low.
  • Eighteen programs cover most fabrics.
  • It has an inverter motor and an energy class A rating.
  • Pause and add lets you slip in a forgotten sock mid-cycle.
  • The interior light makes it easy to check the drum at night.
  • AquaStop and overflow protection guard against leaks.

What we don't like about Bauknecht BW 719 A

  • The ECO cycle takes 205 min, which is a long wait.
  • The spin is loud at 76 dB.
  • There is no extra rinse function.
  • There is no outdoor or sport cycle.
  • There is no energy saving mode.

Verdict

Energy use and a long list of programs are the main reasons to look at the Bauknecht BW 719 A, a 7 kg washer for a household that washes often. It uses only 45 kWh per 100 cycles, and it has an inverter motor. Eighteen programs cover most fabrics, and steam, anti-crease and anti-stain functions help with creases and stains. The interior light is a small touch, but it is handy when you load the drum at night. The trade-off is time: even the fastest cycle takes 30 min, and the ECO cycle runs for 205 min. The spin is loud at 76 dB. It suits a buyer who wants a low-energy machine that handles a steady schedule and does not mind waiting for a long cycle.
