Worcester Greenstar 4000 Review 2025: Is It Worth Buying This Year?

Worcester Greenstar 4000 review verdict
Yes — the Worcester Greenstar 4000 is the best all-round combi boiler of 2025 for most UK homes. In this detailed Worcester Greenstar 4000 review, we’ve installed over 1,200 units in Watford & Hertfordshire and can confirm: 94% efficiency, super-quiet 45 dB(A), 12-year guarantee, hydrogen-blend ready, and perfect sizing from 25–35 kW. At £1,950–£2,900 installed with WarmthHeating, it beats the Greenstar 8000 on price and the older Greenstar i on features.

Why We Install More Greenstar 4000s Than Any Other Model in 2025

Launched in 2023 and refined for 2025, the Greenstar 4000 is Worcester Bosch’s sweet-spot combi — sitting perfectly between the budget 2000/3000 series and the premium 8000 Lifestyle range.

At WarmthHeating we’ve fitted 1,247 Greenstar 4000s since launch (more than the 8000 and old CDi Classic combined). Real-world data from our customers shows:

• 99.2% reliability in first 2 years

• Average £312 saved on energy bills vs old G-rated boilers

• Zero noise complaints (unlike the older Greenstar i)

This Worcester Greenstar 4000 review is based on real installs, customer feedback, and side-by-side testing against the Greenstar 8000, Vaillant ecoTEC Plus, and Ideal Logic Max.
