Bosch Nexxt Washer - 500 Front Load Review

I just recently got to purchase the Bosh 500Plus NEXXT front loading washer and I truly wonder how I've ever lived with out it!!  It is a lot of washer than what I really need but after doing my homework comparing Bosh with the other brands, Bosh had the least complaints over all and the best manufacturer warranty too.  I can fit a king size comforter in it with no problem!!  If my toddler son has a diaper leak, I can put all of his bedding into the washer with room to spare!!  I'm talking the twin mattress pad, twin sheet set and twin size comforter/quilt!!  Which save me time otherwise I would have to wash all that in 2 or 3 loads in my 3.2 cubic ft top loader.  It's very quiet too (it's labeled the quietest washer in America)!!  The loudest it gets is on the finial spin but it's not bothersome and my laundry hook up in in my kitchen which is right off the living-room.

 Now for the details of the Bosh 500Plus Nexxt........

It's 4 cubic foot tub (the store sign said up to 27 bath towels and I've done 20 plus hand towels and wash clothes) is angled for better water drainage and ergonomics.  Stainless steel wash tub and built in water heater.  It has your cotton settings in cold, warm and hot along with a Kidscare which uses a different water temp to help get those tough stains out.  A Jeans setting which is to be more delicate for denim to help reduce fading, an Xxtrasanitary setting which uses a very high water temp and long wash cycle to help get any of those flu germs taken care of!!  And best of all a Quickwash 25 which is a 25 minute wash verses the 58 min normal cycle time!!  And to help save water, there is an EcoOption button that adds 10 mins to your wash time but it uses less water!!  Not to mention all the built in sensors this baby has from load size, a suds sensor (if you use too much soap it will add an extra rinse), water temp, and self balancing too!!  And the controls are also ergonomically friendly as well being on top of the machine instead of on the front.  The only con is you have to shut it off manually but the location of the controls is on top of the machine and the door has to lock in order for a cycle to start so you shouldn't have an accidental wash cycle!

I also got the 15 inch pedestals which raise the set very nicely off the floor and don't interfere with the balance of the machine either. I'm 5'9 so they are a perfect hight for me to easily transfer from washer to dryer.  The pedestals also in conjunction with the control location make it hard for small and young children to reach the controls.  Even my 8yr old can't reach them!!

 Well, I could go on about how I love my new Bosh washer and dryer and how I love my hubby for buying them for me, but I won't.  But feel free to ask me any questions about them!!
