Bosch: the most comprehensive home appliance brand's space

Bosch in a few words

Bosch is part of BSH Hausgeräte, the German group based in Munich that presents itself as Europe's leading home appliance manufacturer. Founded in 1967 as a joint venture between Robert Bosch and Siemens, BSH has been 100% owned by the Bosch group since 2015. It also manufactures the brands Siemens, Gaggenau and Neff, in 37 factories worldwide. In 2025, the group achieved a turnover of 15 billion euros.

The Bosch philosophy comes down to three words: reliability, simplicity, durability. The brand doesn't chase the wow effect at any cost: it aims for the appliance you use for ten years without thinking about it, with clear controls and useful technologies. Its 2026 slogan, "Works LikeABosch", sums up the idea well. Several built-in fridges sold here also carry the "Made in Germany" mention on their official specification sheet.

The strengths and limits of Bosch

The strengths

Why we like Bosch

  • Huge range: washing, cooling, dishwashing, cooking, from entry-level to premium
  • Long free guarantees: SilentPowerDrive motor on washing machines 10 years, dishwasher tub 10 years against corrosion (after registration)
  • AquaStop on dishwashers, with guarantee against water damage
  • Manufacturer after-sales service in Belgium, published repair prices
  • Mature Home Connect app, used since 2014
Good to know

Limitations

  • Abundant catalogue: dozens of almost identical references
  • Modest energy classes in Series 2 (dishwashers D or E, fridges E)
  • Home Connect requires an account and Wi-Fi: some functions only work online
  • Little high-end refrigeration (Series 8) in Belgium
  • Reliability brand by brand: detailed surveys are reserved for subscribers

In short: Bosch is a reassuring choice for almost everyone. The key is to check the series and the spec sheet carefully, since two references that look alike can differ in energy class, noise or a feature. That is exactly what we detail on every page of this space.

What's new from Bosch in 2026

  • Refreshed washing : new Series 4 washing machines (late 2025 and early 2026), Series 6 (February to October 2026) and Series 8 (June and July 2026).
  • Bosch's first heat-pump washer-dryer (Series 8), unveiled at IFA 2026: energy class A for both washing and drying. Its date and price in Belgium are not yet known.
  • Flex-Door freezers with repositionable door shelves, and fridges with reinforced doors (IFA and EuroCucina 2026).
  • Green Collection : ovens made with materials that have a 20% lower CO2 footprint, according to Bosch.
  • Smarter Home Connect : appliance control based on solar production or off-peak hours, and Bosch Cook AI, presented at CES 2026.

Home Connect, the Bosch app

The free app Home Connect (iPhone and Android, available in Belgium) connects your Bosch appliances to your home Wi-Fi. It lets you start or monitor a cycle remotely, receive a notification at the end of a programme, download extra programmes (on certain washing machines or tumble dryers) and let the after-sales service run a remote diagnosis. Compatible hobs can even control the hood on their own: that's the Smart Hood Automatic.

You need to create an account SingleKey ID and have a secure Wi-Fi network. The appliance works perfectly without the app: it adds convenience, not essentials.

Warranty and after-sales service in Belgium

Every new appliance comes with the 2-year statutory guarantee, provided by the seller. Bosch Belgium adds its 2-year manufacturer's warranty and, after registering on MyBosch, free extended warranties: 10 years on the SilentPowerDrive motor for washing machines and 10 years against tub corrosion for dishwashers. Bosch also offers an extra 5 years when buying at least four built-in appliances, subject to its conditions. Essential spare parts remain available for up to 15 years. Details, repair prices and error codes are in our Bosch care and after-sales service.

Registration: Bosch extended warranties only activate if you register the appliance. Do it on the day of installation, using the E-Nr number on the rating plate. For French models, ask us how to proceed.

C
Clément's tip

At Bosch, the series matters more than the model number. Before comparing two models, look at the series number and the energy class: a Series 4 in class C will often serve you better than a Series 2 in class E sold for barely less.

Frequently asked questions

Are Bosch and Siemens the same thing?

Both brands are made by the same group, BSH, in the same factories, with the same parts and the same after-sales service in Belgium. Many models are twins. Siemens focuses more on design and technology, Bosch on simplicity and robustness.

What do Series 2, 4, 6 and 8 mean?

This is the range level at Bosch. Series 2: the essentials. Series 4: the best value for money. Series 6: more comfort, quieter operation and Home Connect. Series 8: the top of the range with the most advanced technologies.

Is the motor in Bosch washing machines really guaranteed for 10 years?

Bosch offers a 10-year extended warranty on the SilentPowerDrive motor of its washing machines, provided the appliance is registered on the MyBosch website. The rest of the appliance is covered by the standard 2-year warranty.

Why do Nimestore's Bosch model numbers end in FR?

Nimestore often sells the French versions of Bosch models. They are the same appliances as the Belgian versions (FG, E), sometimes with a different colour, panel or option. The product page details each model.

Are Bosch appliances connected?

Many of them are, through the free Home Connect app: remote start, end-of-cycle notifications, diagnostics by the after-sales service. With us, that applies to several dishwashers, the WQJ24203FR tumble dryer, hobs and the DWK87FN60 hood.
