Worst Microwave
on April 1, 2024
Posted by: holewheat
This is the worst mircowave I have ever owned. Every few months something breaks on this thing. First was the magnetron, then it was the door switch, then it was the tray motor. I will not be fixing the tray motor and instead will be looking at something other than bosch to replace this pile. Good luck all.

Nice looking but.....

I am not surprised by your decision not to put my review on your website. Having said that, I am disappointed. I do lots of reviews, as I and most consumers rely on them. I am always honest and fair when I post a review, and I was when I did the review on my Bosch microwave. We are getting ready to do another kitchen renovation, but we will not be buying Bosch appliances.
I will be calling Bosch tomorrow regarding the dimness of the display. Hopefully I get a more helpful representative than I did when I called the last time, when I told her about the plastic wheels warping again. I wasn't being fascicious; she really had no interest in what I had to say. For my records I have taken a picture of this.
I will be putting a review on Yelp, as I think it's only fair that the consumer has the right to know. Your products aren't cheap! I believe "you get what you pay for." That's why I bought Bosch; I guess I was mistaken.
I put this as a review because the email I sent did not work for some reason.
Regards,
Glitrgrami

Disappointed
on June 23, 2020
Posted by: Jditts
When we built our home 2 1/2 years ago we chose Bosch appliances for our kitchen because it was a higher end brand and had high hopes for its performance. Unfortunately just after 2 1/2 years the hinges on this built in microwave convection oven broke and the warranty is only good for one year. Also it is extremely difficult to clean because of the heating element at the top of the oven. I wish it was removable because food splatters get stuck up there and it is extremely difficult to clean in between the heating element and the top of the microwave.

I can't believe this is a Bosch product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this microwave/oven combo two months ago. Like other reviewers, the oven has a bright light display. The microwave light display goes dim and can't use the timer on the microwave. They sent me a "new microwave" where this issue has been corrected. Within 20 minutes, went dark again. I have Bosch washer/dryer, dishwasher and never had any issues with the company. Very disappointed.

DENTS, DENTS, DENTS

Purchased in July. The amount of dents on this is ridiculous. It's a household with 2 older poeople so it's not abused. Very poor quality of the so called stainless steel.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love Our New Microwave
on December 12, 2018
Posted by: John
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We moved into a house with a built-in 27 inch microwave. Our first priority was to get back to the Bosch Appliances that we loved from our previous home. We even discovered that our cabinets were pre-engineered for a 30" oven so we could upgrade the size too. The Bosch Microwave is easy to use. The controls are very intuitive and with a couple of touches the food is on it's way to perfection. The Sensor feature really makes this a smart oven. The oven's sensors take over the cooking process and makes sure the food comes out "just right". Thank you Bosch for engineering a great appliance.
I would recommend this to a friend!
