Bosch Axxis WFL 2060 Front Load Washer

Pros: Cleans beautifully despite our rock-hard water. No wrinkles! Energy miser.

Cons: I think it's too small for a large family with small children.

The Bottom Line: Excellent warranty, excellent cleaning, economical, and does your thinking for you. A terrific washer.

Review: Front-loaders are expensive. They pay for themselves over time. If you do 8 loads a week and have a gas water heater, this washer will cost approximately $9.00 a YEAR to operate. If your water heater is electric, your annual cost will be about $16.00....

Pros: COMPACT DESIGN, FULL FEATURED WASH CYCLES, CLOTHES NICELY DONE, ENERGY EFFICIENT.

Cons: 13 LB. LOAD CAPACITY, FINAL SPIN CYCLE A BIT LOUD.

The Bottom Line: Great machine if you want a front loader that is smaller in size (depth less than 24 inches) that has all the cycles and features of the bigger machines.

Review: I purchased this washer and its matching dryer 7 months ago, and the chore of doing laundry has never been better. This machine is a wonder! Clothes consistently come out clean, whites on Power Wash or Temp/Hi Temp boost come out bright white with no ...

Pros: Very small and has flexible piping for tight squeezes.

Cons: The cycle time is longer than your average washing machine.

Review: We live in NYC and this little gem fit right into a closet next to our bathroom. It does a full load (considering you don't often need a washer to accommodate a family of 8 in NYC). We love all of the options on the settings, from temperature control ...

Pros: build quality, energy efficiency, cleaning quality

Cons: power scrub cycle is very long; with no spin water does not drain

Review: I have owned this product for two years. I bought it to replace a 20 year old set of Whirlpool products. There is no comparison. Front loaders are the way to go. They use much less water, much less soap, are gentler on the clothes because there is no ...

Pros: Excellent Cleaning and Compelling Price

Cons: Noisy spin cycle must be heard before purchase.

The Bottom Line: Excellent product for the price if you can tolerate it's one shortcoming.

Review: The Europeans have enjoyed front loading washing machines for decades. They combine superior washing performance with extreme efficiency. Bosch is a German brand known throughout Europe and increasingly in the US since they are now manufacturing ...

Pros: Compact, more efficient than top loaders, cleans well, settings for all types of clothes.

Cons: Compact (not good for large families), expensive, spin cycle mechanically a little loud (jet engine).

The Bottom Line: After ten months, I would make the same purchase. Absolutely no mechanical problems, performs well, and is perfect for limited space.

Review: I have been using this washer for about ten months, and am pleased overall. I live in Brooklyn, NY, and converted a closet in my second bedroom to hold a stackable washer and dryer. I only considered front loaders (better for the environment, far fewer ...

Pros: Good load handling, cleans well, doesn't damage or tangle clothes

Cons: the SPIN CYCLE NOISE

Review: We bought our Bosch 12 months ago and to date it has worked well. It copes well with unusual loads such as sheepskins and generally cleans and dries (spins) well. BUT.... if you've never lived near an airport, you'll get that experience without moving ...

Pros: small size--fits in my apartment

Cons: incredibly poor service

Review: I purchased this washer because of its small size and good reputation. Unfortunately, it required service after it was delivered. It also arrived with a scratched door. Over the course of three months, I have scheduled 4 appointments from three ...

Pros: Takes up smaller space-- may be good for apartments, condos, and small homes.

Cons: Limited capacity, clothes have a tendency to wrinkle. Customer service is not the greatest.

The Bottom Line: Although the product is durable and somewhat attractive--due to the shortcomings of small capacity, wrinkling, and the general shortcomings of Bosch customer service--I would not recommend product.

Review: We purchased this product based on the recommendation we received from the person selling the product at Best Home Appliances in Phoenix AZ. These type of washers are popular in Europe since they use less water and take up less space. The biggest draw...

Pros: Compact size.

Cons: Lack of cycle time indicator. Can't use bleach in machine.

Review: I purchased the Bosch Axxis WFL 2060 because I was limited for space. It is compact, but has some annoying features. The cycle is longer than most washers on the market, which is fine, but there is no indicator on the machine while it is in use to let ...
