DO NOT BUY A BOSCH APPLIANCE

NEVER BUY A BOSCH APPLIANCE. TERRIBLE AFTER SERVICE - We bought a bosch washing machine 1.5 years ago and when I recently opened the little door at the bottom to clean the filter and a large piece of paint came off showing rust underneath. This machine has the balance of standard warranty and 2 extra years. They tell me it is because the little pipe is leaking and that it's not covered by warranty. How can it be that if your pipe is leaking, then it is not under warranty. I have learnt my lesson. NO MORE BOSCH APPLIANCES FOR US.
