What we like about Cecotec Bolero DressCode 9950

  • A 52 cm door makes loading bulky items easier.
  • The 9 kg drum takes a big family load in one go.
  • The automatic dosing tank lasted over 30 washes in tests.
  • Sensors detect fabric type and load weight to pick the program.
  • The time remaining indicator shows how long a wash has left.
  • A steam option helps with children's clothes.

What we don't like about Cecotec Bolero DressCode 9950

  • 13 programs leave fewer choices for special fabrics.
  • The spin reaches 76 dB, which is loud enough to notice in another room.
  • The OnSmart app only shows cycle status.
  • Heavy loads can move more in the drum and come out more creased.
  • At 68.45 kg it is hard to move for cleaning behind it.

Verdict

A 52 cm door is the first thing you notice on the Cecotec Bolero DressCode 9950, and it makes bulky items easy to load. Its 9 kg drum suits a family that does several loads a week. The automatic dosing system is the standout: a 240 ml detergent tank lasted over 30 washes in tests. The sensors check the load weight and fabric type, then pick the program. A steam option suits children's clothes, and a silent night setting keeps the noise down for late washes. The trade-off is the program list and the spin noise. There are 13 programs, and the spin reaches 76 dB, which is loud enough to notice in another room. It suits a household with children that wants a machine to make most of the decisions.
