Disappointing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this microwave thinking I couldn't go wrong because it's a Bosch. Found the feature set and control interface mediocre at best compared to other ovens at similar price points but what's really disappointing is the convection feature, which is super slow to cook. Other than that, it looks good.

Top Notch Quality!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Loving our new convection microwave! It really helps with being able to cook additional items for those large get togethers!
I would recommend this to a friend very efficient microwave at a good price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this as a replacement for a 6-yr-old Samsung microwave, which buttons for fan started acting up, can't turn off at times, and eventually the microwave just died. Food heated in that microwave no matter what setting is select would make the food blow-up & splatter everywhere. Compare to this new microwave, it's got an extra bright stove-top light, and the food heated up in it only barely splatters without covered, the setting such as for melting butter actually just "melt" the butter, no blowing-up or splattering! So far our family are very satisfied with this new microwave. Still have some convection and other settings to try out.

A great microwave that can do almost anything
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent product and can cook like an oven in a fraction of the time. It is very powerful so you have to adjust your recipe times down.

BOSCH is no longer the same Bosch brand!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Disappointed is an understatement of what I feel right now with our Bosch microwave oven. Lucky enough that when it first broke, it is still under warranty and they arrange for someone to come and fix it. Took a lot of back and forth until finally it was fixed. Fast forward after 3-4 months. The unit died again. Not sure what kind of fix the authorized third-party technician did but it sure is not on the level you would expect from Bosch. I guess it's time to look for another brand.

Convection Microwave
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not only does this Convection/Microwave work like a charm but I love the stream-line look of it. It matches my fridge! Now my husband wants the matching oven and dishwasher. ;)
I would recommend this to a friend Less than I expected.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this product based on its name. It lacks several features...being able to use it with the turntable off and the inability to see well inside even with light on. Also the print is very small.

Great microwave with benefits!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So happy about our new microwave. It is functional and gorgeous to boot! Larger than our previous Bosch! Love the extra space! Will be using that Convection Oven soon! A bonus for sure!
I would recommend this to a friend Cheap peeling handle
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microwave came with the paint peeling off of the handle right out of the box twice. This is a known problem, and I should not have ordered it knowing that it was a possibility. Bosch just threw this microwave together as an after thought. The functions are codes codes that you have to remember, instead of displayed words. They give you a sticker to put inside the microwave with descriptions of the codes. Bosch makes excellent dishwashers and clothes washers, but microwaves are not their forte. Hard pass for me.

I would recommend this to a friendLarge interior, easy clean
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this Bosch 800 Series Microwave/convection Oven to replace an old GE that had gone out. This one works much faster and heats evenly. Bakes well, very pleased with it.
I would recommend this to a friendWorked fine for 2yrs, then the control BD smoked.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, after having issues with 2 other Microwaves I though I was free and clear with this one. Just in case I purchased a 3yr extended plan. It turns out this thing started smoking just a couple of weeks ago after 2yrs of use. Fortunately for me I am covered by extended warranty. I am a little concerned that having the convection option in a hood model may cause unit to run hot. The control board smoked while being used in Microwave mode.
