BOSCH 1200 CLASSIXX 5

When I moved four years ago I was moving to a much smaller home and left all my heavy kitchen equipment behind and started afresh.
Due to shortage of kitchen space I wanted a washing machine that would fit into a shed outside, so appearance wasn’t my main concern.
I wanted my machine NOW, I can’t be doing with having to wait weeks for company’s to deliver goods and we had a car at the time that the machine would fit into.
So off we trotted to see just what we could find in the fair city of Lancaster.
,
After looking at various machines I opted for the Bosch 1200 Classixx 5, at Comet store in Lancaster. The strongest selling point of the machine was the price; it was on special offer at just £249.00 and had a free five-year parts warranty. Also it was from a well-known manufacturer - Bosch, and the dimensions of the machine were perfect for the space I had.
To top it all Comet had one in stock for us to take home there and then.

APPEARANCE

As I stated appearance wasn’t an issue as the machine was to be kept in a shed, but having said that it is not an unpleasant appliance to look at. It has no ‘rocket science’ look to it; it is a basic free standing and front-loading compact washing machine that comes in white, white or white!!
It does though look well made and robust and the actual drum seems on the larger side than most machines.
There are no digital or LCD displays, but the buttons are finger sensitive and easy to use.
What this appliance looks like is ---a washing machine.
TECHNICAL DETAILS

The dimension of the washing machine is 847mm (H) X 600mm (W) X 590mm (D).
The water consumption is 45 litres at 60 C for cotton clothes.
The washing duration is 135 minutes for cotton wash at 60C.
The washing capacity is 6kg.
The efficiency rating for the wash, spin and energy are respectively ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘A’. The rating is done on a scale ‘A’ to ‘G’, ‘A’ being the maximum and ‘G’ the minimum.
The energy consumption for washing is 1.02 kw per cycle.
Weight - 69-83kg
Voltage - 220-240 v, 50hz

EFFICIENCY AND USE

After almost four years of continual use I have had no problems at all with the machine.
I have a 13 year old son who plays rugby, cricket and football and who takes his kayak on the canal, hoisting himself in and out on to the muddy banks; for two years I had a teenage daughter who got changed every ten minutes and got through more towels then Audrey’s Hairdressing Salon and I have three grandkids who spend all their summer holidays here – so, as you can imagine, I do get through a LOT of washing
I do the majority of my washing now on the 30 degree cycle and the washing comes out clean and fresh, hardly wrinkled and very dry.

Unlike many machines, the spin cycle is exceptionally quiet, not like my last machine that sounded like it was going to take off!!
As it is such a simple machine it is also very easy to use
Very straight forward, simply set the temperature and the type of wash you want e.g. Basic Wash, Mini Load Wash, Pre Wash, Reduced Ironing etc. and select the speed you want the spin from 600 to 1200.
I generally use the highest spin setting and the clothes come out very dry.
It is very east to keep clean and has needed no speciual maintenance over the years that I have owned it.

As of 27/9/09 the R.R.P. of this machine is £364.95
It is available with free delivery for £298.99 from Co Op Electrical

CONCLUSION

For a good basic washing machine that won’t break the bank but will perform well and quietly I would heartily recommend this machine.

YOU SPIN ME RIGHT ROUND, BABY, RIGHT ROUND ROUND
Review of Bosch 1200 Classixx 5 by donovan74

Advantages: BRILLIANT VALUE BRILLIANT WASH. BRILLIANT MAKE
Disadvantages: NO GO FASTER STRIPES.

...year, that might even help Bosch sell this machine (now there's an idea).. "You spin me right round, baby / Right round like a record, baby / Right round round round / You spin me right round, baby / Right round like a record, baby / Right round round round". LOOKING FOR A MACHINE In the busy, bustling household in which I dwell, we needed to replace our noisy Zanussi washing machine, which sounded like a helicopter was landing in the garden everytime ...
...to our rescue came the Bosch 1200 Classixx 5, purchased from Peter Jones in Sloane Square,London, which is part of the John Lewis partnership. I think the value of this machine was its strongest point at just £249.00 followed closely by the manufacturer Bosch, which in my opinion is a good make. BOSCH 1200 CLASSIXX 5 The machine it self is quite standard to look at (no go faster stripes) and seems to be well made with a bigger washing drum than ... Read review

Bosch 1200 Classixx
Review of Bosch 1200 Classixx 5 by janethazeldine

Advantages: Does a good wash and has a quiet spin
Disadvantages: Wash cycles take a bit longer

Really pleased with this machine recommend by my mum. Washes really well and is quite quiet when spinning compared to most other machines I have heard. What I love best is that I the larger barrel allows me to wash more clothes in each cycle so I have now reduced my weekly washing down by 1 load! It is also very simple to use: just turn the knob to the desired wash and press the on off button. The only thing I would say is my 18 month old can use ... Read review

Advantages: It comes in a pretty silver colour......
Disadvantages: Avg cycle is 2hrs, doesn't get stains out and is loud

...we moved house was that it was integrated into the kitchen. I MISS my Hotpoint so much. We also have a Bosch Dishwasher (also 3 months old) and this appliance is also way below standard. Quite simply I am disgusted with Bosch, and would NEVER recommend them. ... Read review

DON'T BUY BOSCH!
Review of Bosch 1200 Classixx 5 by lordvonreggo

Advantages: NONE
Disadvantages: EXTRA WORK AND RUINED CLOTHES

...TO REPLACE IT WITH THE BOSCH BECAUSE THE SPEC SEEMED GOOD, AND THE PRICE WAS GOOD, BUT I WISH THAT I HAD STUCK WITH ZANUSSI! WITHIN A FEW MONTHS I STARTED GETTING WAXY, GREASY RESIDUE ON MY CLOTHES. WHEN I INQUIRED RETHIS I WAS TOLD TO FOLLOW THE TROUBLE-SHOOTING ADVISE, WHICH WAS TO TRY A HOTTER CYCLE. IHAD ALREADY DONE THAT, BUT FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS HAVE HAD TO DO THIS FREQUENTLY,USUALLY AFTER A GREASY WASH! ON SEVERAL OCCASSIONS THE RESIDUE ...
...MY THEORY IS THAT BOTH PROBLEMS ARE RELATED TO THE AMOUNT OF WATER BEING DETERMINED BY THE WEIGHT - SO MUCH FOR ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY- NO POINT IF I HAVE TO DO EXTRA WASHES AT HIGH TEMPERATURES! SO NEXT TIME - BACK TO ZANUSSI AND SAVE BOSCH FOR THE POWER TOOLS! ... Read review
