Not the solution I expected

Would Not Recommend

We were encouraged to buy this speed oven when we bought a new home. I wanted a microwave, but didn't want it on the counter, and I wanted a second oven... This, in theory, was a good solution. But we have never been happy with the microwave. First of all, the height of installation above a regular oven and the design of the door opening down toward you, it's impossible to reach inside to clean it, especially the back wall. No way. And I'm not short. As for performance, it's not very powerful. I...

No service on appliance

Would Recommend

We purchased a $4,000 + wall oven microwave combo unit in 2020. Had it repaired in 2021 (less than a year old) and called for repair again In November. The Lowes service repair center was unable to find a company to come repair it as we live in rural Amador County in California. We were eventually told that Lowes was "buying out" our appliance and we would have to purchase a new one... WE Will NEVER BUY ANOTHER BOSCH Appliance AGAIN. If we can't get service we will buy Kitchenaid or something...

Unreliable microwave

Would Not Recommend

We purchased Bosch because we expected the top quality. Howeve the microwave was having issue right from the start. First the display got dimmed but still it was working. Next the door spring on the left side broke down, we replaced it. Then the same happened on the right side. And finally it died on us yesterday. We also have a cooktop from Bosch where we had to replace 3 out of 5 igniters. I don't think we will consider Bosch as our future appliances provider.

Nice options

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the many options this oven has. I've always wanted a warming oven but didn't have room for the additional appliance, so this option is great. The only thing I don't like is the low sound of the timer. I've tried it on both low and high and it makes no difference. It's too quiet and I'm afraid I may miss the notification and burn some things.

First Bosch oven

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! This is my first Bosch oven. It's smarter than I am...(maybe not saying much). I've had it less than a year, so I'm still getting familiar with its features.

A little slow, but fine otherwise

Would Recommend

The unit operates just fine, but it takes longer to heat items in the microwave compared to microwaves I've had in the past. We purchased it thinking it operated as a full, albeit small oven too. But have since realized it is a small broiler too, and not a baking oven. The heat comes from the top only. Our bad for not reading the fine print.
