Easy to use and clean
on December 11, 2018
Posted by: Chief W5
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my German appliance, just wish it was larger and had a convection part. Otherwise, easy to use and clean. Can’t get the display to brighten up is only draw back.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Condensation
on April 11, 2019
Posted by: Carol
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I built a new house and Built in Bosch Microwave is 6 months old. I have noticed that there is a huge amount of condensation inside the microwave and on the door. So much that the door drips water when you open it. Doesn't seem right to me. I also noticed that my tag shows the microwave is made in China. Thought these products were made in the USA. I also have the very dim digital clock display as well.

Poor display
on April 15, 2019
Posted by: Kennyg
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The display on this unit is so dim, even on brightness setting no. 3, that it is difficult to see. Unit was replaced once by our builder, and warranty changed the board. additionally, should not be used in a similar location as other built ins. The drop down door vs side swing makes it difficult to use for a short person. The display unit we saw when specifying our appliances didn't have. Installed in a typical location or powered up, so the above issues were unknown when picking our choices. Like all other aspects otherwise

Built In Mocrowave oven

The control panel is awful...hard to see, letters and numbers are too small and there is virtually no backlighting to help see the letters and numbers, otherwise a good unit

Nice features but wish it came in black stainless
on March 26, 2020
Posted by: Quiet but bad design
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only used it for a month but it seems to be a nice microwave. Very quiet and I like that it only has a simple beep when its done. I've had other microwave's that continue to beep until you open the door. The only complaint I have is that its does not come in a black stainless to match the other appliances and it has an huge ugly white logo on the front which sticks out like an eye sore on a black appliance. Not an aesthetically pleasing design.

Microwave Oven
on May 26, 2020
Posted by: Kathy
[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.

Bosch Microwave Review
on July 5, 2020
Posted by: Benita
I am very happy with my Bosch Microwave. Wish the clock would stay on constantly, but there may be a setting to keep it bright that I'm not aware of. My builder installed it too close to my frige, so the frige needs to be closed to open the Microwave, but all else is great!

Bosch 500 series
on September 17, 2020
Posted by: John
[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.
