Bosch laundry in America begins with the WGA14400UC, the white 300 Series narrow washer whose drum holds 2.2 cubic feet, built 23 1/2 inches wide, with no Home Connect. Shoppers assume a starter model is built lighter. In fact it shares a chassis with the dearer tiers: the same drum bearing arrangement, drain pump and door lock.
Connectivity and program count are what it lacks. Everyday loads are still covered by its Delicates, wool, whites and easy-care settings, and mechanically it ages like its pricier siblings, so the repair list reads much like the one for the 800 Series.
Calls usually begin with small objects. Small objects such as coins, pins and clips lodge in the pump impeller. Next comes a door lock that stays shut when a cycle finishes, and a detergent drawer whose siphon has clogged, so detergent never gets drawn in.
Yes, briefly, while the drum winds down. If it stays locked long afterward, there is a lock or control problem. Pulling on the handle can break the mechanism, so wait and then call us.
The siphon that draws detergent into the drum has clogged with dried product, or the jets above it have scaled. Pulling the drawer out and cleaning it clears most cases.
No. The machine uses the same drain pump, bearings and lock design as higher tiers. What is missing is the app and some programs, and nothing that affects how long the washer runs.
Book in about a minute, or call the desk. Same-day windows inside the Loop on most days, next-day across the rest of Houston.
