What we like about Bauknecht BPW 814 B

  • An 8 kg drum takes a full load of family laundry.
  • The refresh cycle freshens lightly worn clothes between washes.
  • The extra rinse and pre-wash help with muddy or heavily soiled loads.
  • One program finishes in under an hour.
  • Water running costs are low over a year.
  • The AquaStop system helps protect against leaks.

What we don't like about Bauknecht BPW 814 B

  • There is no steam option, a real gap for anyone who wants creases eased.
  • The final spin at 76 dB is the loudest part of the wash.
  • Even the fastest cycle takes 30 min.
  • There is no outdoor or sport cycle for technical clothing.
  • It is heavy at 68.5 kg, and its 306 L body needs a lot of room.

Verdict

Choose this machine for a busy week of laundry rather than a fast one. The Bauknecht BPW 814 B has an 8 kg drum and a 1400 RPM spin, and its class B energy rating keeps power use in check. The refresh cycle freshens lightly worn clothes, and the extra rinse and pre-wash suit muddy loads. A foam control system and a laundry detection system keep suds under control. The final spin is loud at 76 dB, so run it when nobody needs to sleep. It is a deep, heavy machine at 60.5 cm and 68.5 kg, so it needs a firm floor and room to open. One program finishes under an hour, which helps on a short day. It suits a family with children and muddy clothes who want a dependable everyday washer.
