SENSOTRONIC PLUS

• They offer SENSOTRONIC PLUS, a network of sensors that analyze your wash, determining load size, temperature and more.
• Then adjusts levels automatically to care gently for everything from wool to silk.

ARCHIE Paddles

• As your wash gently tumbles, Bosch's patented ARCHIE paddles cascade water from high above.
• Rinses away suds and giving your laundry a complete, gentle clean, without the use of a harmful agitator.
• Plus, an ingenious inclined drum helps ensure that not a single shirt goes unturned.

Internal Water Heater

• Many washer heaters operate on timers.
• But Bosch washers have thermostats that monitor and automatically adjust the water to precisely the right temperature.
• So your clothes are washed thoroughly, efficiently and gently.
