Best kitchen appliance so far!
on March 17, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have owned few properties and many appliances over the year but Bosch 800 series microwave/convection over is over the top in fit finish, quality and functionality. I wish we purchased this sooner. I did purchase 5 year extended warranty and having extra assurance is healthy. Install and ease of use is phenomenal. I wish it had smart integration which would make life easier as well as soft close feature. I can see how you could damage product with some rough use.

Sleek but noisy
on June 4, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed this a few months ago and while it has performed well on microwave, bake and broil my unit has developed a very annoying sound only when microwaving. We most frequently use this as a microwave, it hums like normal but also has a very loud rattling sound that has developed. Hoping this isn't normal bc it makes the appliance sound cheap and frankly the complete opposite of how it looks.

Great speed oven without rewiring the kitchen
on June 28, 2021
Posted by: Jeff
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced my old Wolfe stove, hood and microwave a year ago with Miele stove, hood, and blower. I liked the idea of a speed oven, but almost all of them require a 240 V connection. This is one of the few that would work with my 120V/20A outlet and breaker. I was VERY hesitant after reading all the negative reviews here. The saleswoman at my local appliance store agreed that the reviews were terrible, but she had sold a number of these in our area with no complaints. So I went ahead and purchased.
I have been VERY pleased with the versatility and efficiency of the Bosch speed oven. It roasts a chicken perfectly in 42 minutes, and it looks and tastes better than any chicken I've ever roasted in a regular oven (clean up tip - tuck a big sheet of parchment paper around the chicken and under the dish to keep interior clean).
I wanted to add a positive review as I suspect the satisfied customers aren't bothering, so you end up with a distorted view of the product. I'm sure the negative reviewers have had some problems, but their comments are so far removed from my experience with Bosch that I was a bit skeptical that they could be typical. FWIW
I would recommend this to a friend!

Microwave

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Loving the microwave but find the timer is not loud enough at all. You really need to be in the same room to hear it go off.

Poor Design
on March 4, 2024
Posted by: Annoyed
It should be a no-brainer that metal in a microwave could cause arcing issues, especially when close to the source of the microwaves. The metal truntable has plastic wheels mounted on a metal protrusion that is very close to the bottom of the microwave, which causes arcing and is dangerous. It gets worse over time to the point of making the microwave useless. I am now awaiting my third metal tray replacement. So, why not fix the root cause so I won't have to replace the microwave. Just design a better tray that doesn't contain metal! This is not what I expect from Bosch. Otherwise it is a nice microwave.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great convection microwave
on April 2, 2018
Posted by: MikeB
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this “speed oven” for our new home and have been using it for about a month. It looks great built into the cabinet, and it is quiet while running and is efficient and cooks evenly. A great addition to our oven!
