Microwave
on December 24, 2019
Posted by: Ronnie
Built new home moved in may of 2017. All Bosch appliances. All good but microwave. Burned up both fuses and door latch switch. Appliance company ordering parts to fix it. 1.5 years old that's really pathetic spending more money for quality and this to happen. Unfortunately didn't buy extended warranty. Only because all the other cheap microwaves lasted until I gave them away

Only Bosch Product NOT to Buy!
on June 22, 2020
Posted by: Philippa
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have built or remodeled several homes and I have always installed all Bosch appliances and been very happy with them. This is the exception to that rule. The oven is only 1 year and 7 months old and has totally died. I am extremely disappointed - especially after reading all of the reviews which suggest that this product has had quality issues for several years. There are also several glaring design flaws - the microwave is very deep and difficult to clean. The option for a side opening door is a must. The control panel lighting is so faint it is difficult to read and the alarm is barely audible. This is a poor product and design for such a good company.

Love the oven but it shorted out after 2 years
on October 27, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was happy with it for 2 years, then it just quit working. It was under a home warranty but 2 different technicians could not find the problem. Replaced with same oven as it is part of a Bosch wall oven/spped oven combo and will see how long it lasts.
I do like the speed chef options and find cooking time greatlt reduced using these options

Faulty control board
on April 18, 2020
Posted by: Rachel
We remodeled our kitchen in 2014-2015 and installed this microwave/speed oven along with a wall oven and induction cooktop. Both the speed oven and the regular oven needed to have their control boards replaced within 2 years. Stopped working. The technician commented that this is a very common issue. (insert eye roll emoji here) Now this microwave has stopped working again. It tripped the breaker. The electrician came to inspect and found out the issue is with the unit and not the breaker. There is a "short" of some kind. We now have to have another appliance repair on this appliance next week. If I could do it over again, I would not purchase. I do use the convection part often and that is nice not needing to heat up the larger oven. Able to fit a 8x12 pan. With that being said, it is a lot of money to spend on new appliances to have them need constant repair $$$

Better than I imagined

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We redid our kitchen this summer and I got rid of my wall oven/microwave combination that I’ve had for years. I loved my microwave because it was big and had a drop down door. As I looked for a replacement, I found this Bosch speed oven. I use the convection oven almost as much as the microwave. It’s a little smaller, but it still handles everything just fine. And I love the duel turn plate. So easy to put the white one in the dishwasher - yes it’s a Bosch,
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Mico-Oven!
on December 12, 2018
Posted by: Teacap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this microwave. The Reheat Sensor function works really well at reheating leftovers. Biggest gripe with this microwave is that the alarm is so silent. It's impossible to hear it if you're not in the room staring at the microwave and watching the countdown. Works great as a microwave, haven't used it much in it's speed oven capacity.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works Great, Needs some tweaks
on June 6, 2019
Posted by: LarsR
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very fucnctional microwave and is pretty powerful. I like it overall but there are some things I would change. First the clock is so small you can't read it unless you are right on top of it. This goes for how long is left to cook, etc. The 'food is done' alarm is very quiet. You can't hear it unless you are very near the unit. Again overall it works great and easy to use but there could be some better ergonomic changes that would make it better.
