||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We like our speed oven. It looks great, has a solid feel to it, and gets the job done in all operating modes. The user manual is easy to follow. However... Problem #1 -- This appliance has a VERY WEAK alert sound even when MAX volume has been selected. This makes the Speed Oven's time functions useless and requires a separate kitchen timer. Less expensive microwaves have pleasant, loud alerts and will even sound a delay reminder if food is left too long in the microwave after completion of a heat cycle. Bosch does not offer this feature. Problem #2 -- The installation manual could be improved by illustrating the attached outlet plug and offering an example of what an appropriate 20-amp receptacle should look like that will accept Bosch's VERY UNUSUAL plug. I completely understand why Bosh supplied their unique 20-amp plug but I for one have never seen a plug like that even though, as it turned out, my receptacle accept such a unique plug. Problem #3 - Bosch does NOT offer a 27” matching drawer. They only offer a warming oven. This forces customers to either upscale to a warming oven they don't need or put up with mismatched cabinets. Since I needed to fit the speed oven into an existing 27" opening, I did not have the flexibility to simply specify a 30" cabinet on a new installation. Problem #4 – Since this is a microwave-oven combination, if the oven features are being used then the kitchen will not have an available microwave.

Great Buy!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful microwave convection and I actually really like the way it sounds. It’s very quiet but also the buttons make a very nice beep sound. That sounds weird but some of them can be annoying sometimes and this one certainly isn’t.

I would recommend this to a friendNice appliance but early failure of display
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this oven in October 2015 as part of a kitchen remodel. Research seemed to indicate that Bosch appliances are well-engineered and that the company stands behind its products. 6 months out of the general warranty, the display died. The oven still works but there is no display. At first, Bosch said this was considered cosmetic but when pushed about the fact that because the oven is both a microwave and a convection oven not being able to see the selected settings is actually a safety issue, they changed the tune about the cosmetic issue but still claimed to warranty coverage. So we spent a bunch of money on what was supposed to be a premium appliance and the company's way of standing behind it is to charge us $200+ for the part, $129 for a trip charge and $30 each 15 minutes for labor. Unless you are okay with pricey, early repairs, do not buy!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendWorst Microwave Ever
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Total money pit. Control panel went out twice. Door springs broke twice. Blew a breaker. Finally went out on me and I have to get a new one because of the dimensions of my cabinet. Now they have delayed my new microwave that I don’t even want 6 times and their customer service 1 rang me twice then put me on hold until it timed out. I’ll never recommend Bosch to anyone

Not reliable
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In September 2015 I bought Bosch HMC801151 UC that is not available any more. Two years ago the control panel stopped working. Now there is no heat and the turn table stopped turning. It was supposed to be a good and reliable product that I spent the money on. Now I assume that HMC801152 UC replaces HMC801151 and I am not sure I will buy it. The main problem is this a built-in microwave that fits in a right size of the cabinet opening. To find another unit that fits in that opening will be a challenge. I am wondering if HMC801152 is better than HMC801151 assuming that they fixed the problems.
