How the ranking is made

This page shows all models of this brand or supplier from the washing machines ranking, with the same data and the same order; RepairInfoEU adds no rating of its own and changes no values. Spellings that differ only in upper and lower case count as one name. In the French data, a supplier (manufacturer, importer or retailer) reports the score; the brand comes from the sales name confirmed on the manufacturer’s website or, where the supplier sells exactly one brand, from the supplier. Models without a reliable brand count towards no brand.

Method, cleaning and limits of the full ranking

How we choose the favourites

  • Favourites come only from devices with their own device page (confirmed sales name, brand with a brand page), and each is from a different brand.
  • Our favourite: the highest score.
  • Most reliable: the highest reliability sub-score; on a tie, the higher score.
  • Best from a brand: the highest score of the brand with the most models in the list that has no favourite yet.
  • Most repairable: the highest repairability sub-score; on a tie, the higher score.
  • After the favourite, the first two rules that find a suitable device apply. A rule drops out if it applies equally to every device on the page. If a rule finds no suitable device, its card is left out, so fewer than three favourites may appear. On topic and brand pages, the rules apply to the filtered list; on brand pages without the different-brand condition. Nobody can buy a place as a favourite.

Icons in the list: green means at least the typical value in the category (median), grey means below. Our own calculation from the data; the values themselves are unchanged.

Compared: all 43 washing machines from Bosch in the French durability index dataset on data.gouv.fr (Licence Ouverte 2.0). As of 2 November 2026, updated weekly. Order: by the durability index score the supplier publishes (0 to 10); with equal scores, the longer spare parts supply first, then the name; the rank counts within this page.
