Bosch has launched new washing machines, ovens and a new cordless vacuum cleaner in the lead-up to IFA 2024 starting on 6 September.

At a press conference held on its exhibition stand themed ‘There is no place #LikeABosch. Welcome Home’ held two days prior to IFA 2024 starting, Bosch launched new products including energy efficient Series 6 and Series 8 washing machines that use pre-heated water and are also available with microplastic filters; new Series 4 and Series 6 ovens with air fry and steam function; and the Unlimited 10 cordless vacuum cleaner with MicroClean technology.

“Our home is one of the most important places for everyone. At Bosch, we want to contribute to making people feel completely comfortable in their homes. That’s why we develop home appliances that support and ease the workload in every room of the home. With smart and innovative technology, we make it easy for people to live healthier and more environmentally conscious lives,” Robert Bosch Hausgeräte GmbH managing director, Andreas Diepold said.

Bosch Series 6 and Series 8 washing machines

The line-up includes Bosch’s energy-saving champion: the WGB244AW0 Series 8 washing machine, which is 50% more energy-efficient than energy efficiency class A.

Another new addition is the Series 6 BiThermic washing machine, which uses pre-heated water to save energy costs during the wash cycle, while the new Bosch microplastic filter minimises microplastics during laundry care. It can be connected to any washing machine or washer-dryer and helps reduce microplastics in waste water.

The appliance delivers up to 97% filtration efficiency and the most flexible installation options on the market. The self- cleaning filter can reliably be used for numerous wash cycles before manual cleaning is required.

Bosch Series 4 and Series 6 ovens

The new Series 4 and Series 6 ovens feature air fry heating mode and steam function. The air fry heating mode makes it easy to prepare healthier fried foods, while the steam function ensures perfect results for bread, roasts and other dishes.

Bosch Unlimited 10 cordless vacuum cleaner

The new Unlimited 10 cordless vacuum cleaner features patented MicroClean technology, which removes particles invisible to the human eye. The patented MicroClean nozzle eliminates all types of dust and dirt from all types of floors and the MicroClean sensor detects whether a surface is truly clean.

If the MicroClean ring is white then the surface is still dirty and if it is blue, this confirms that the area is perfectly cleaned. New dust compression technology means the dust box on the Unlimited 10 needs to be emptied only half as much as usual.

Other products launched by Bosch for IFA 2024 included the Vitapower Series 6 blender with 1800 watts and the BetterFood app to assist with cooking inspiration – both of which may not be distributed or sold in the Australian market.
