Bosch Convection Microwave
on January 26, 2023
Posted by: Derrick
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was the convection microwave we were looking for, not as wide as most out there so fit perfectly into our island. Only harp I have is that the chime is not very loud even at its highest setting. All in all, would highly recommend.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Unreliable
on November 22, 2022
Posted by: Done with Bosch
1) In 6 years of ownership, one of the door switches has melted 5 times, leaving char marks and melted plastic (see photo) and rendering the oven unusable. This time it failed two days before Thanksgiving.
2) Since we bought the oven, the turntable has randomly turned or not turned while cooking - not such a big deal in convection cooking, but microwaved items get scorched in one spot.
3) If we turn the oven temperature to 450 degrees, the oven often gives an error code and has to be unplugged and plugged back in to reset it.
4) The convection mode heats up barely faster, if at all, than our full-sized electric oven.
5) The microwave is not as powerful as I'd like. I miss our reliable 1200 watt countertop microwave (from another manufacturer).

Handy Flexible oven
on October 31, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] THe Bosch is a great oven with some great features like Keep Warm and hi /lo Broil. Sensor cooking. The convection is strong and easy to use as is the oven timer and microwave function. Easy to read controls.
I wish it had: a Proofing setting for bread, timed cook, and a louder timer signal.
It is hard to clean especially the space between the oven and the door.

Great until it Breaks - Less than one year of use.
on September 20, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to have this Speed Oven for our house remodel. The concept makes perfect sense, micro and a high end toaster oven all in one; and in the wall to boot. I purchased it a couple of years ago, prior to the pandemic; and with those delays we finally moved in, November 2021. In September 2022, the thing blew the circuit breaker, and continues to do so immediately after resetting the breaker. Of course no longer in warranty. It appears this is a common problem based upon other reviews. Please Help Bosch

Wonderful Speed Oven
on August 24, 2022
Posted by: Mommakescakes
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this oven as part of our kitchen remodel, in order to get rid of a counter top microwave and have an extra small oven. I am thoroughly enjoying using it. The microwave, sensor cook, speed chef, and convection modes all work well. Love the pull down door feature.
I would recommend this to a friend!
