Best purchase Ive ever made!
on October 26, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot say enough about this cooktop. I replaced a gas cooktop with this induction top. I have always preferred gas to electric...until now. This induction is not your momma's electric cooktop. It is so sleek and beautiful, which makes it really easy to clean - just wipe it off. The heat is instant, no waiting and the temp control is the best of any cooktop you will ever find. Water boils in less than 2 minutes. Simmering or frying will hold the exact temp you set, no more going up until it bubbles, then going back down and back up throughout the process. Also, since the heat is generated in the pan, not under the cooktop, all the heat is inside the pan. Much less heat goes into the room and less up onto the cook while standing over the pot. Your kitchen and you stay cool. Since the heat is created in the pot, it doesnt matter what size pot you use, it is always the right size for the burner. Controls are easy to use and easy to see. I also love the style of this top. The big X over the cook areas looks so modern instead of the circles so often seen on electric tops. It has timer that you can use to shut it off automatically, say when boiling eggs or what ever. The power is the best available as well. I shopped so many tops before buying this one. The Boost feature on center burner goes up to 5500w, this is well above any other cooktop at this price point. I did find one other that matched that, but it cost almost 3 times as much as this one. Bosch is a great brand name, and I have never had problems with any of my Bosch appliances. You will not regret this purchase.

Induction is Amazing!

Waited quite a few months for shipment of this induction cooktop as we didn't want anything else. Definitely worth the wait. Induction is the only way to go. Totally love the speed, ease of cleaning, no toxis by products from gas and actually works faster than my microwave. Such a win/win! Takes a little bit to get used to cooking using induction, but what a rewarding journey! Rather glad my older Bosch cooktop died so that we could move to the induction cooktop.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Replacement Cooktop
on October 19, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works great for cooking and especially for getting things hot fast. But there WiFi option which mine has needs a lot of work, not user friendly at all, they need to go back to the drawing board for the WiFi piece.

Horrible cooktop
on September 22, 2021
Posted by: Induction Lover
The BOSCH induction cooktop was a replacement in 2018 for a Thermidor I purchased in 2007. The BOSCH induction did not live up to its hype. First, let me say I love induction cooking and I am literally ripping out a perfectly good propane range and am replacing with induction (all six burners). BOSCH had a number of fatal flaws: first, the controls blend in too much with the cooktop, very hard to read when off. Second, the burners would continuously turn themselves off (yes, every pot and pan I own has very strong magnetic properties). The high output was minimal at best. While I know many people love the BOSCH brand, their induction performance is substandard in my opinion.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Far Exceeds my Expectations!
on December 30, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I could no longer get replacement parts for my custom made 68 year old electric cook top so I had to replace it. I originally wanted a gas hob, but after carefully researching my options, I came to realize that the most environmentally responsible solution was an induction hob.
I am not disappointed. This cooktop gives me precise temperature control, instant on/off control like a gas hob, and a single off switch for the entire top. It heats water in seconds on the boost setting.
Cleaning it is a breeze - there are no crevices, rings, burner pans or grids. When the pasta pot boils over, a tea towel quickly cleans it up with no fear of igniting the towel.
The only down side was I had to give up my French copper pots that I had collected over the years,
This cooktop is well worth the price.
I would recommend this to a friend!
