Microwave is money well spent. Cooking settings and warming settings are outstanding and very accurate. It’s quiet when running, and the door closure is also gentle and quiet.

Nice and clean aesthetics. Advanced functions on the microwave. Only drawback is the very dim display which seems to be a common issue for this series of microwave.

We have a Bosch oven and are remodeling our kitchen. Instead of having the microwave and hood combo over the stove, we chose to add a wall mount microwave over the wall oven. This matches and it looks like we bought the oven and microwave at the same time.

This has been a great replacement for a troublesome Kithenaid microwave. It's quiet and has worked well for the short time that we've had it. I think this is a great value with good quality. The microwave was delivered on time as promised.

This is a second built in microwave of this series we have purchased. The first one "died" within 5 years and we are hopeful that this one will live longer life.

Multiple Problems and Failure within 3 years

This model was included in the condo unit we purchased in 2019 and had multiple problems starting with the door that needed to be replaced, then arc fault circuit breaker problems, faulty door switches, and ultimately a failure in the capacitor which we paid $400 to have fixed and then failed again, so had to replace the unit in a span of only 3 years.

Started arcing in 2 years.

We bought this in 2019 Dec. The microwave started arcing inside and it eventually burnt a hole in the waveguide cover. We replaced it, and the same problem happened in a few months. And the frequency of arcing got worse. Paid 5X the price of a comparable microwave, hoping that Bosch makes better product but NO. We ended up using a Samsung microwave which does a much better job and costs one sixth. Bosch microwaves are not only overpriced, but poorly built. Good luck getting any support to fix. Their warranties are a joke.
