(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) The best part is the fact that I have 2 ovens and they cook at the temperature I set them to - nice even heat. I use them together at least once a week. The bad part - my digital display for the middle two digits has faded for the second time in just over a year. The timer is awful to set and so many reviews complained about it. It’s super sensitive and goes from 5 to 25 in a light tap -but it’ll teach you patience! I use my phone timer. Way easier. The other issue, which I never even thought to look for when buying - it does NOT have a delay start cook time. I didn’t know that ovens existed without being able to set your oven to come on and shut off by itself but my Bosch doesn’t have that luxury. It does cook well but it has some issues. If you don’t mind the lacking delay cook time, crazy timer and display that may fail - it does do what it’s suppose to and that’s bake, roast etc. It’s good at that!
I have had these ovens for 10 months and if I had known how poorly the timer/oven temp controls worked I would never have purchased these. It can take me 30 seconds just to get to the right time and temp. I have to touch the up and down quickly just to not skip 20 degrees or 5 minutes. Also, I guess this is an issue with all double ovens but it is extremely noisy with the fan blowing after shut off.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the knobs. That's one of the main reasons I purchased this model. Wanted to get away from all electronic controls. The timer is set on the electronic control panel and it's extremely touchy. It's a see-saw of up and down until you finally get to the correct setting. The preheat time is very slow. My guess is it's because the heating element is hidden at the bottom and not exposed. I'll get used to this but it's definitely slower than my old 1985 era oven (which was still working great BTW).
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I did a lot of research before buying this double oven. I bake and cook a great deal and this is an important appliance to me. The temperature stays very even and it’s easy to wipe up spills without having to use the self clean. I do enjoy having two ovens and they both work well. I do have a problem reaching the upper oven safely and I would prefer side opening doors but I just make sure I cook heavier items in the bottom oven. There are a few issues with these double ovens though - the timer is extremely sensitive, which many others complained about. It is also quite quiet when it does ring. You need an abundance of patience to set this timer. I have ended up using my phone as a timer instead. The oven light turns on the light in both ovens at once, which isn’t usually necessary. As your oven preheats it doesn’t list the temperature as it increases. It just alerts you when the temperature has been reached. That would’ve been a nice feature. The stainless steel is easy to keep clean. I have a different brand of fridge and dishwasher and they go together seamlessly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this double oven a few months ago along w other Bosch appliances and so far so good! Very happy.
