Thanks for the info Paul.

Are you saying that yours is quiet during the spin cycle - normally the last
10 mins or so? You see mine is like yours, you have to be near it to hear
it, except for the last 10 mins when it whines away and can easily be geard
from the next room even with the TV on etc.

I would say that you have a problem. I recently got a new Bosch WFO285S,
think thats the part no from memory, and its really really quite. In fact
the hotpoint tumble dryer can be heard from the other end of the house,
but
unless you are in the kitchen, and close to the machine, its not even
obvious the machine is on!

Hi

I have just bought - delivered Xmas eve, a BoschWFO2465 washing machine.

It is supposed to have a "very quiet noise level". However when spinning
there is a fairly loud high pitch whine that increases with spin speed,
this
whine can also sometimes be faintly heard whilst the drum is turning
during
washing, are these noises normal?

The machine is a 1200RPM spin but the 10 year old Zanussi 1000 RPM spin
it
just replaced, whilst being generally noisier, seemed quieter on the
spin
cycle, at least it didn't whine at all.

Does anyone else have any experience with the current range of Bosch
washing
machines and their noise levels?

Thanks
