Beautiful range, now a focal point of my kitchen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm enjoying my new range although it has taken some getting used to it. Very different from my dual fuel range. But I do like it.

Overall very good except the interface

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how fast it heats up, that it's very easy to clean, and the overall design and functionality, I do wish that the lines indicating where the elements in the cooktop are were brighter (the gray lines on a black background can be hard to see especially through steam) because it's easy for pans to slide off of the active area while cooking. I also don't like how there is only one set of temperature control for all burners (you have to select a burner then change the temp). If you have multiple burners going this can get really confusing, especially if you have a situation like a pot boiling over and have to quickly change things. Temp settings below 3 seem basically useless they're so low -- I wish each burner had its own direct controls, maybe with only five or six levels, with the lowest being equivalent to the current setting 3. Also in that boil-over situation I've been unable to find the controls to turn it off because the boiled over food is covering the controls. I wish the controls were raised or recessed or had a lip around them. I like the visual look of the all glass top with touch screen controls but having used it it's not very practical. Finally, the kitchen and cook timer beeps are VERY quiet, easily missed if you're out of the room or if you have a range hood fan going.

Induction is phenomenal
on April 19, 2020

We were disappointed that our new condo has no gas hook ups for stoves, and did not want to use a propane tank or electric range top. We are delighted that we spent a bit more than for a typical oven and bought this Bosch induction range. The glasstop is modern in a fun way, and quite intuitive. The speed boost option is truly amazing for heating a pot of water or kettle to a boil- quicker even than gas. And it has the same flexibility in terms of turning off nearly instantly. I baked a cake yesterday, have done biscuits and quick breads, cookies, potatoes etc, and found the suggestions on how to place the racks very helpful. It works beautifully- used convection for an oven pancake yesterday and it puffed up better than in a concentional oven.
I was afraid I would not like having to clean the glass surface, but a quick wipe with provided product works easily and it stays shiny and fresh. I thinknif we simply keep up with that daily care it will stay beautiful for years to come.
Yes, it is a bit if a splurge but if you enjoy cooking as we do, it is worth every penny!

Great range!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been very happy with with our new induction range. The hype is real! Fast and even heat, plenty of cooking area, and easy to clean.
Though, if I were to ask for anything different it would be that the flex area be wider to accommodate larger pans and flat top griddles. Also, the small burner is my least often used element. If that was oriented toward the middle rear it would feel far less neglected and more suitable as a utility element to warm a sauce or boil water. The largest element could be placed closer to the cook for easier access.

Perfect induction cooktop for my new house.
on January 14, 2020
Posted by: nonobject
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this induction range for my new home for about a month now and it has been awesome so far! It's pretty much got everything I was looking for: slim design, great performance, safe, and energy-efficient. My favorite thing about it is that it boils/cooks so much faster compared to my conventional range. One thing to note is that not all of your pans/pots are not going to be compatible with the induction. Other than that I'd recommend this to anyone who's looking for a cooktop for their new house.

Stove makes for happy wife and .... you know ;-)
on December 27, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wife loves this new stove. Induction cooking works well and stove top cleanup is so much easier. Having the telescopic rack makes using the oven with heavy items (turkey, roasts) much easier especially when lots of liquid is involved. The Warming drawer a big plus, too.

Beautiful peice of machinery

I love the Flex Induction feature, basically you can put a pot almost anywhere on the 4 hidden inductors. You can even straddle 2 at a time. The controls a bit less intuitive but it only takes about a day to get used to their factuality. I like how they are nice and clean on the top instead of knobs that get cruddy and break. It’s quite too, some inductions can be quite loud.
The large magnetic burner is kind of dead center towards the back which I also like because I have an over the range microwave and pots with a lot of steam work well the vents above in that location. Its better to me this way because when its all the way forward it gets steam all over the front of the microwave.
The vent is at the back and to be honest this is how most slide ins work. I have had others with the vent in the front but you always have hot air blowing on you with that configuration.
The oven is very nice, comes with one glide rack, and 2 regular ones. Heats up in about 10 minutes pretty fast and easy to use. I live that It has a low temp bread proofing feature.
The warming draw is probably the weakest link. Its very shallow and feels like its a bit on the flimsy side. I think most people use them for storage any ways but the last one I had was actually enameled in the bottom and actually a small second oven. This one is just raw stainless.
While this is on the pricy side, one of the few appliances I have bought in recent years that seemed to be worth the extra money. it's more beautiful and sleek in person.
