Third-party reviews

What we like about Bosch WGB24402IT

  • 25 kWh per 100 cycles keeps power use low.
  • A 71 dB spin is quiet for a 9 kg machine.
  • The wash runs at 47 dB, so it stays calm while it works.
  • The 9 kg drum takes large loads in one go.
  • Steam helps with creases and freshens clothes.
  • Hygiene and Anti-Allergy cycles suit sensitive skin.

What we don't like about Bosch WGB24402IT

  • At 82.4 kg it is hard to move and needs a firm floor.
  • There is no automatic dosing system.
  • The eco cycle takes 220 min, which is long.
  • Each cycle uses 47 L of water.

Verdict

Quiet running and low power use are where the Bosch WGB24402IT stands out. It uses 25 kWh per 100 cycles and spins at 71 dB, and the wash itself is only 47 dB, so it is calm in a shared flat. The 9 kg drum takes larger loads in one go, and a 1400 RPM spin removes more water from the laundry. Steam helps with creases and freshening, and Wi-Fi lets you start and check the machine from a phone. Wash assist and a mini load setting for small amounts are uncommon extras. The trade-off is weight: at 82.4 kg it is hard to move and needs a firm floor. It also has no automatic dosing, so detergent is measured by hand. It suits a family or a busy home that wants a quiet, efficient machine with connectivity.
