Two year old builtin micro convection oven and light panel is out Cost of new oven 1449. Cost to repair 1250 plus tax. Insanely bad product A throw away after 2 years
We have been so happy with all our bosch appliances but unfortunately we have been displeased and quite frankly upset about our microwave at only 1 year of use, sparking flames while warming up oatmeal. The flames literally burnt a whole on the top of a metal plate inside microwave. It was scary. The metal panel was replaced a month ago. Today the bosch microwave made a sudden loud popping sound only 5 seconds into warming up a tortilla. Upsetting. 1 year in.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love the look and ease of using the Bosch microwave. The plus 30 seconds button is a great feature as is the oversized turntable which allows for platters and larger casserole dishes. Our previous microwave was slightly smaller but had a higher power 1100 W versus 950W on this one. We are finding it an adjustment to figure out how much time is needed to cook or reheat items and even using the three popcorn settings, none has cooked the microwave popcorn fully even when matched with the correct size of the package.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I researched extensively before deciding on all Bosch appliances for our new house. I was hesitant about the microwave because of some reviews, but we are very happy with the look and performance.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The appliance does not turn on. I thought Bosch is a good brand but it is very disappointed. I bought it for new kitchen last year and after installation this year it does not turn on. The service is expensive.

This product is only one week old and the Kitchen Timer feature is broken - worked for the first 4 days and then strarted only counting down 1 second and stops
We purchased all Bosch appliances for our new construction. The nightmare has been with this microwave! I am 5'9, and I avoid using this almost daily. It is impossible to get any liquid out without scalding yourself. Whoever thought that the pull down door was a good option obviously does not use the microwave often. I have to use a step stool to be able to clean the microwave. For the love of safety, Bosch do better and mention this in the installment guide. No I am left with either a microwave I do not use or redoing an entire cabinet that will cost more than the microwave!! Never again will I buy Bosch or recommend their products. Poor craftsmanship and money down the drain.
