What we don't like about Bauknecht B7 99 SILENCE DE

  • At 83 kg it is very heavy to move.
  • The 64.3 cm depth needs a generous space.
  • The 30 min fastest cycle is slow for a quick wash.
  • There is no extra rinse function.
  • There is no outdoor or sport cycle.

Verdict

Holding 9 kg in one drum, the Bauknecht B7 99 SILENCE DE suits a family with lots of washing. Its anti-vibration design and inverter motor keep it steady, and the motor is covered for 10 years. It uses 35 kWh per 100 cycles and 46 L of water per cycle, so day-to-day use stays moderate. The spin runs at 72 dB, so a Night/Silent option is useful when it runs late. Steam, anti-stain and anti-crease options cover common worries, and a refresh cycle freshens clothes between washes. The trade-off is size and speed: at 83 kg and 64.3 cm deep it is a heavy machine, and its fastest cycle takes 30 min. It suits a family that wants a big drum and quiet running, and does not need sport or rinse options.
