I love this range.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Choose Bosch to replace a gas range after hearing great things about Bosch performance. We Have previously experienced induction with a different brand but this Bosch range if fantastic. Our son likes to make mac and cheese but waiting for water to boil using gas was time consuming not to mention heating up the kitchen. On this range the water comes to a boil in under 3 minutes, the handles of the pan and the kitchen stay cool. Also enjoy how responsive temperature settings are and how easy it is to clean the surface. Oven works great and convection mode is as quiet as any other convection range we have used before. Overall the performance of this range is such that if I wasn’t already married I would be marrying my Bosch!
A couple of quirks or suggestions for improvement. The count up timer is nice to use but wish once it reaches 60 seconds it only displays minutes and no seconds as it continues to count. Wish it would continue with minutes and seconds. Also when pre-heating the oven it only displays the desired temperature. Wish it would display the current oven temperature as the oven heats up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

BENCHMARK INDUCTION SLIDE-IN RANGE
on December 3, 2023
Posted by: JimCooks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned and used this range for 6 weeks. I wanted to make a Thanksgiving dinner putting the range to the test. All in all a brilliant design. The floating top sits on the granite counter top.
Likes: Design, Ease of use of all controls both on cooktop and oven, Fast heating there's an induction learning curve, the oven is brilliant so many options & the meat probe took the turkey to the perfect temp. The warming drawer is a great option. My personal installer said "the warming drawer is a work of art in stainless steel!
Things that could be better: the rear stainless oven grate that runs across the back of the range is sadly not the best quality & be sure to find the CORNERS COVERS KIT-000634738 at the beginning of your installation. You will thank yourself.
The sound could be a bit louder on the oven timers & probe. Yes, I have it turned up to max.
That's about it. I purchased new All-Clad D-5 Stainless cookware. I have paired this range with a ducted OTR ADVANTIUM MICROWAVE OVEN.
PS. You need a great installer to get this range just right but then you are ready to step into the future with this outstanding induction range. Good job BOSCH!

Satisfied with performance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Second induction range owned. Takes a bit of time to heat up, even on "boost" setting, but once pan is hot and food begins to cook, it works well. Just needs time to learn the proper setting.

So far, so good. Good looking range
on January 12, 2024

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We decided to replace our Bosch Dual fuel range with induction because we were concerned with the recent news about indoor air quality with a gas cooktop. We went with the Benchmark series mainly because of the FlexInduction zone area. It doess looks like it will be a more convenient use of the cooking area. However, one thing that isn't obvious from ANY of the Bosch materials comparing the Benchmark to the 800 series is that the 800 series has something called "AutoChef" functionality, while the Benchmark doesn't. While we still like the features of the Benchmark layout over the 800 series, when we buy the top of the line, I would expect it to have ALL of the features of the lower model PLUS the additional capabilities.
As I understand AutoChef, it keeps the pan at a constant temperature when frying. This seems like it would be a very convenient feature to have. We only found out about it because it is described in the manual that came with the range. I don't think we would have gotten the 800 series even if we had known this, but it would have been nice to have had this pointed out in the spec sheets for the ranges or in the marketing materials.
We have used gas for many years, so induction does take a little getting used to. After dealing with having to upgrade our electrical service and getting the range installed, it seems to work well. Boiling water is incredibly fast. We have been able to prepare a number of meals with some learning to find the appropriate burner settings.
The oven is exactly the same as in our last range, other than the telescoping rack, which is convenient. Time will tell how well this stands up, but so far it looks like it will be easy to cook on.
