Consider this: the Bosch WLG 20160 OE washing machine was among the top three best-selling machines in Russia in 2016. This fact alone speaks volumes, but don't over-idealize this model. Just because it's popular doesn't mean there isn't a more attractive alternative. Let's see what users have to say before we draw any conclusions.
Owners' opinions
Timur, Ufa
I've only had the machine for a couple of days, and I've only used it twice. The first time I washed t-shirts and shirts, and the second time I washed a jacket. The washing results are excellent.
Firstly, the old machine oil stain came off my jacket, which I am very happy about.
Secondly, all the detergent was rinsed out of the clothes. I even sniffed the laundry, and only a slight scent of fabric softener remained, not the scent of detergent.
Thirdly, I immediately chose the most suitable programs. There's no need to learn how to use them; everything is intuitive. I highly recommend them to everyone!

I used the owner's one for a year and a halfLG F12U1HBS4 washing machine And I was quite pleased. Last month, I moved into a new rented apartment with a Bosch washing machine. My first impression was so impressive, I even decided to write a review. It's a really cool machine, even though it turns out it's quite inexpensive.
Washes up to 5 kg of various dry laundry.
The drum can spin up to 1000 rpm. At this speed, centrifugal force spins clothes quickly and efficiently.
The LG was guilty of sometimes failing to spin jackets, despite its 7 kg load capacity. The Bosch, on the other hand, spins outerwear perfectly with a 5 kg load capacity.
There are 14 different washing modes, and the most common ones are: night mode, delicates, mixed laundry and soak. The names of the programs are correct, it is immediately clear what they are.
All the necessary information is displayed on the screen, but personally I am only interested in the progress of the program.
The machine consumes little water and electricity.
I'll be moving again soon, as my house in the suburbs is being completed. I'll definitely be buying myself a washing machine like this. It's high-quality and does its job perfectly.

Hello everyone! I've been using this washing machine for 11 months now. It's a perfectly fine washing machine; I can't really find anything to complain about. It's a bit noisy and vibrates a bit, but it washes so well, you couldn't wash clothes that well by hand. It's worth every penny, especially considering the price.
Pavel, Murmansk
I don't regret buying it at all. The machine is fantastic, it washes everything without ruining my clothes. It uses little detergent, water, or energy, and it looks decent. I even wash my socks in it because I'm too lazy to wash them by hand. Excellent choice!
Alexander, Moscow
A decent and inexpensive washing machine that I bought six months ago at a great discount. I wouldn't say it's the best machine ever, but it's definitely well-made. I'll keep using it, five stars!
Yuri, Omsk
I wanted to buy an Indesit washing machine, but the experts talked me out of it in favor of a Bosch. It was a bit more expensive, but it's been working flawlessly for two years now. I like how it manages to save water while still washing and rinsing perfectly. The drum is a bit small; I'll replace it when I start a family.
Evgeniy, Rostov-on-Don
The washing machine is mediocre, not worth the money. The drain pump broke after a month of use. Reliability is out of the question, even though it's a Bosch, it washes well. I'd give it a three out of five stars.
The hatch closes poorly, I suspect that the door lock will have to be replaced soon.
Andrey, Novosibirsk
A simple washing machine for those who aren't looking for anything fancy. It washes clothes well, the spin cycle is excellent, and the rinse cycle is adequate. It doesn't have any special features, and it doesn't have an internet connection, so don't get your hopes up. Mine has been working flawlessly for three years now.
What do the hostesses say?
Anna, Moscow
We saved a lot of money when we bought the washing machine two years ago. Firstly, we got a 25% discount, and secondly, we saved on the repairman, as my husband connected it himself in 40 minutes without any difficulties. I really liked that the manufacturer generously included the necessary components for connecting the washing machine in the box.
I use this machine very often, at least five times a week. I've washed countless loads of laundry with it, and it's never had a problem. My husband put anti-vibration pads under the feet to prevent excess noise and vibration. Now the washing machine is barely audible from behind the bathroom door. We made a great purchase; don't hesitate to follow our example.
Julia, Ulyanovsk
I don't know a better washing machine than Bosch, and that's not just a fancy word. I've been using these machines for 19 years. I bought this model a year ago. In all this time, my washing machine has never let me down, and I think it won’t let you down either.
Larisa, Pavlovsky Posad
I'm happy with the washing machine; it was delivered and set up quickly. The first wash impressed me with its excellent results. I learned how to operate it right away. It's noisy, but not too loud, so I got used to it quickly. I trust this company, which is why I bought the machine.
Svetlana, Biysk
I don't recommend any other washing machines besides Bosch. Maybe I'm right, because my friend's Indesit machine burned out the day before yesterday, so she had to bring her laundry to me for washing. My machine is as reliable as a washboard; it doesn't do anything wrong. It washes perfectly, and I don't need anything else.
I only use expensive powders, without them the machine won’t wash well.
Ekaterina, Novosibirsk
It washes well. Clothes come out perfectly clean and undamaged. There are no unusual noises during washing, which means all the components and assemblies have been working properly for a year now. I don't need anything else. Five stars.
Anastasia, Kemerovo
I think I'll write about my experience with this washing machine. At first, I was hesitant to buy it because it was German, and it said it was assembled in Russia and only had a one-year warranty. Then I agreed to buy it, and now I've been using it for two years and I'm happy with it. I have no complaints about the washing performance, and there have been no breakdowns. Everything is fine.
Oksana, St. Petersburg
For the first three months, I was delighted with the purchase, as the car worked perfectly. Then, unexpectedly, the engine burned out. The mechanic only told me about it later, but at first, I had no idea what had happened to my beloved "home assistant." A lot of time and money was spent on repairs. What good was it that I saved money on this purchase? The quality is poor. I'm disappointed!
Marina, Penza
An optimal selection of washing programs and child safety lock—that's all the advantages of this washing machine. Forums claim it never breaks down. I personally confirmed its "reliability" when I spent $80 on repairs. Don't be fooled, folks. A Bosch machine assembled in Russia is crap!
