Description:
The SHX7PT55UC projects the remaining time and the washing status onto the floor, a feature that Bosch labels as "TimeLight", while it is outfitted with the VarioSpeed cycle option, which reduces washing time by up to 50%, but this will probably consume more water and power. That being said, it is also strapped with a water-quality sensor that determines if a new water fill is needed or not, which Bosch says may reduce water consumption.
