Washing machines · 2 MODELS IN DETAIL

7 or 9 kg: comparing washing machines by running cost

Two specific Bosch models show why capacity and energy class alone aren't enough. Add up electricity, water, offer price and delivery together.

YOUR CHOICE IN THREE BUDGET TIERS

High-end, mid-range or budget?

A way to wash is important, a new purchase only when stock is lacking. Choose capacity based on actual loads.

Our recommendations by features and use case, not a complete market test. The tiers apply within the category; daily deals can change the price order. Source check: 15.10.2026.

High-end

Miele WWD380 WPS PWash&Steam&9kg

Why this choice? Our comfort choice for families: 9 kg, PowerWash and SteamCare; manufacturer label states 40 kWh per 100 Eco cycles.

Before buying: A large appliance: 85 × 59.6 × 64.3 cm. Calculate delivery and connection separately.

Why this choice? Our mid-range choice for regularly large laundry loads with 9 kg capacity.

Before buying: For small loads, 9 kg isn't automatically more economical. Measure door opening and hose space as well.

Our recommendation by use case

For smaller, regularly full loads

Bosch WAN282H3

Rated capacity
7 kg
Energy class
B
Power / 100 Eco cycles
51 kWh

Our assessment: 7 kg is the starting point for light laundry volumes. What matters is the actual load, not just the number of people.

The trade-off: Energy class B. The smaller machine isn't automatically more efficient per standard cycle; total depth including door is 60 cm.

For larger, regularly full loads

Rated capacity
9 kg
Energy class
A
Power / 100 Eco cycles
49 kWh

Our assessment: 9 kg gives larger laundry volumes room. Lower power consumption alone doesn't justify a high surcharge: water usage belongs in the calculation.

The trade-off: Two extra kilograms of capacity are of little use if the drum is usually half empty. Calculate connection and delivery separately.

THE PRICE ON THE BOX ISN'T EVERYTHING

What do your washing loads cost?

Calculation using published Eco label values. Adjust usage and tariffs. The default values are a calculation example.

Bosch WAN282H3
Bosch WGG244Z9F4
Without JavaScript: annual cost = cycles × (kWh per 100 cycles ÷ 100 × electricity tariff + litres per cycle ÷ 1,000 × water tariff).

Total amount = purchase price + delivery + years × annual electricity and water costs. Excludes detergent, repairs, financing and price increases. The same number of cycles doesn't mean the same amount of laundry at 7 kg and 9 kg. The time horizon is a calculation period, not a durability forecast.

Before ordering: check three things

  1. Measure the door-opening space, stairwell, recess, water supply and drain.
  2. Check whether delivery to the installation site is included, along with connection and old-appliance take-back.
  3. Use eco-label values as a standardised comparison figure. Other programmes use different amounts.

How this comparison is made

Editorial: Bestpreisradar · Data check on 12.10.2026. We compare the models named using linked manufacturer and offer data, Amazon rankings from the DataForSEO Merchant API, and explicitly marked original tests. The recommendations are our assessment of this information; we do not carry out our own lab tests. The selection does not cover the entire market.

Manufacturer data proves features, not automatically quality. Missing measurements are not replaced by stars or overall scores. Prices and availability are shown in the respective shop; a model search may include differing variants. The order is not a quality ranking.
