Bosch Series 6 Freestanding 9kg Heat Pump Condenser Tumble Dryer
A 9 kg Series 6 heat pump dryer in silver inox, with a Self-Cleaning Condenser and a full eco cycle that finishes in under three hours.
The WQG245S9GB is Bosch's Series 6 heat pump tumble dryer in a silver inox finish, rated for 9 kg loads and sized at 84.2 by 59.8 cm to slide under a standard worktop. The metallic front makes it the one to choose if the dryer will sit in view alongside stainless steel appliances rather than hidden in a utility room.
Speed is the notable part. A full eco load finishes in two hours fifty-six minutes, and half a load in two hours one minute, which is quick for a heat pump machine. A Self-Cleaning Condenser clears fluff automatically as it runs, so the machine keeps its condensation efficiency of 86 per cent without you rinsing a condenser filter after every cycle.
Ideal For
The silver inox finish is meant to be seen, which suits a laundry area that sits in the kitchen alongside other appliances rather than behind a utility room door.
A full 9 kg eco load in two hours fifty-six minutes, and Super Quick 40 for smaller batches, suits households that need laundry moving rather than sitting overnight.
Dedicated duvet, down and towels programmes, plus 9 kg of rated capacity, give large items enough room to tumble properly instead of being packed in tight.
Key Features
A full 9 kg eco load finishes in two hours fifty-six minutes, or two hours one minute at half capacity, which is brisk for heat pump drying.
Fluff is cleared from the condenser automatically during the programme, so drying performance holds up without a condenser filter to pull out and rinse.
Bosch's rated load for the eco programme at full capacity, with a Half Load option that adjusts the settings when you have less to dry.
The programme ends when the laundry reaches the dryness level you chose, with iron dry, cupboard dry and cupboard dry plus available as targets.
Cotton and easy care plus cottons, cotton eco, shirts, down, duvet, delicates, towels, mixed load, sportswear, woollens, Super Quick 40 and timed warm.
A metallic front rather than white paint, intended for kitchens where the dryer sits alongside other stainless appliances and needs to look the part.
Why the cycle time matters
Heat pump dryers trade speed for efficiency, and long programmes are the usual price. This one finishes a full 9 kg eco load in two hours fifty-six minutes and a half load in two hours one minute. If you run two or three loads on a Saturday, a machine that clears each one inside three hours keeps the day moving. Super Quick 40 sits underneath for a small batch that needs turning around fast.
Reading the energy label carefully
On the current EU label the WQG245S9GB is energy class E, using 1.44 kWh per eco cycle or 144 kWh per hundred cycles, with condensation efficiency of 86 per cent in class C. Older documentation for this model still quotes the superseded A+++ to D scale, where it appeared as A++, so it is worth knowing which label you are looking at. The current figures are the ones that count, and they place it lower down the scale than the newest heat pump machines.
Gentle drying and everyday handling
A stainless steel drum and an interior drum light are the practical touches here. The Sensitive Drying System is Bosch's name for gentler fabric handling, and a 120 minute anti-crease cycle carries on after the programme ends if you are not there to unload. AntiVibration side walls steady the cabinet, and Bosch quotes airborne noise of 64 dB(A) in class B. Control is a soft dial with touch buttons and a large LED display showing time remaining and programme progress.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | Bosch Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Saturday laundry run | 2:56 full eco cycle | A full 9 kg load clears in under three hours, so several washes fit into one day. |
| Duvets and bedding | Duvet and down programmes | Dedicated cycles for bulky items, with 9 kg of capacity so they have room to tumble. |
| Visible laundry area | Silver inox finish | A metallic front that sits comfortably beside other stainless appliances instead of a plain white cabinet. |
| Filter maintenance | Self-Cleaning Condenser | Fluff is cleared automatically during the cycle, so there is no condenser filter to rinse each time. |
| Ironing pile | Iron dry and reduced ironing | Stop the load slightly damp and keep it moving afterwards, so there is less pressing to do. |
| Small utility space | Slide-under 84.2 x 59.8 cm | Fits beneath a worktop, or stacks above a washing machine with the optional WTZ2741X kit. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- Full 9 kg eco cycle in two hours fifty-six
- Self-Cleaning Condenser clears fluff during the programme
- Silver inox finish for kitchens on show
- Auto Dry with iron and cupboard dry targets
- Duvet, down, towels and woollens programmes included
- Drum interior light and large LED display
- Stackable above a washing machine with optional kit
Considerations
- Energy class E on the current EU label at 1.44 kWh per eco cycle, so it is not the cheapest to run.
- Condensation efficiency is 86 per cent, class C, so slightly more moisture is returned to the room than higher rated models.
- Bosch lists no Home Connect and no reversing drum action on this model, so there is no app control or bed linen tumble reversal.
