Third-party reviews

What we like about Bauknecht W8 S6300 A

  • Wi-Fi lets you start a cycle or check its progress from your phone.
  • Bluetooth is built in as a second way to connect.
  • The inverter motor and A energy class keep energy use at 47 kWh per 100 cycles.
  • An 8 kg drum takes a large load of bedding or towels.
  • Cycles for duvets, baby clothes, allergies and wool cover special laundry.
  • AquaStop and overflow protection help guard against leaks.

What we don't like about Bauknecht W8 S6300 A

  • The fastest cycle takes 30 min.
  • The spin is 76 dB, which can be heard from the next room.
  • At 68.5 kg it is heavy to move.
  • At 60.5 cm deep it will not fit a shallow cupboard.
  • Only two programmes finish in under an hour.

Verdict

An 8 kg drum and Wi-Fi control make the Bauknecht W8 S6300 A a practical machine for a busy family. From your phone you can start a cycle or check its progress, and Bluetooth is there as a second link. The inverter motor and A rating keep energy use low at 47 kWh per 100 cycles. Each wash uses 48 L of water. There are cycles for duvets, baby clothes, allergies and wool, plus a hygiene cycle. The fastest wash takes 30 min, so it is slow when you are in a hurry. The spin at 76 dB can be heard from the next room, and at 68.5 kg it is heavy to move. It suits a family with children or allergies who want careful washing and do not mind the weight.
