Love this microwave!
on December 17, 2020
Posted by: Zapper
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This microwave opens like an oven - no more door to the left or right. I love the digital display and auto cook options.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing look and decent performance but ...
on November 29, 2020
Posted by: Hoomanhr3
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) We did a major renovation a few months ago, and that was when we upgraded all of our appliances to Bosch appliances. We went with this make and model to match it with our 30" Bosch wall-in oven. The microwave has decent performance but could certainly be improved on a couple of aspects.
1) The microwave goes into the energy-saving mode, and the display is dimmed. The problem is that it dims to a level that you cannot see the digital clock on the display anymore. Unfortunately, there is no option in the menu to disable the energy-saving mode of the microwave.
2) For a unit of this size and price range, I was expecting an energy output of more than 950 Watts. Some small standalone microwaves' output energy is more than that.

Cooks fine, but display is disappointing
on November 27, 2020
Posted by: PWboise
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use. A bit deep to clean the back, but that can be seen as a plus for interior capacity. To save myself, I cannot get the display to stay on bright, cannot see the time at all during the it is so dim. Also bummed about being able to set the timer for only short times. It looks sophisticated
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best warm up of leftovers ever!
on September 27, 2020
Posted by: Doctor
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cook for the week of work and do eat a lot of leftovers. I use the sensor reheat and my food comes out cooked through and at a great temperature. It is so easy to use--just press the reheat and start.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new home in Seattle came with this Bosch microwave and we have found it to be another top quality Bosch appliance. I would recommend it to anyone looking at a similar product.
Having previously owed Bosch appliances I expected a great product.
Expectations delivered.
