Not as expected
on June 2, 2020
Posted by: Susan
We recently had this model installed and already had to call for service because of the dim lights on the control panel. That's when I learned that the dim lights are a factory setting and can't be changed. The same is true of the chimes that you can barely hear when the timer is complete. Had I known of these problems I would not have purchased this microwave. Also, food takes longer to heat than in our countertop model that was also 950 watts.

Buyer Beware

After 22 months the microwave broke. Of course this was 10 months outside the 1 year warranty. Needed to replace the magnetron which with service call and part replacement would have been close to have the cost of a new microwave. Can't believe such an expensive appliance lasted less than 2 years.

Microwave Oven

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The microwave unit works wonderfully. The only tiny grip I have is the fact I cannot get the clock to stay on bright...so if I glance at it I cannot tell what time it is. I reset it but it only stays on for a bit of time and goes dull again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The microwave has many features that give it this rating. Love the sensor reheat, softens butter with out melting and heats food evenly.

Great except for one minor problem

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is difficult to read the lettering on the large buttons on each side. Would be much easier if they were brighter colors

Disappointing

First I have to say Bosch support was great. I am very dissappointed in the quality of the Bosch microwave. This unit was part of the built in oven and expensive. Our unit failed 12 months after purchase. The main component failed. Most microwaves last years. I would not recommend purchasing the Bosch microwave.

Microwave Oven Review
on April 16, 2020
Posted by: Kristy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my Bosch built in microwave oven. This is the first Bosch microwave that I have owned and it is the best! It is so quiet, large capacity and has wonderful features. We built a new home and I am so glad the builder only uses Bosch appliances in the homes he builds! I highly recommend a Bosch built in microwave oven!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is big and efficient. Noce power that can heat up food quickly. Very good looking Microwave. Very quiet. However, the beep button volume are almost inodible (no sounds when it is done ...). Will update my post if something happens ....
