Display lighting and buzzer sound

For the reputation of this company, this is the poorest in quality when it comes to alerting you when you item is completed. Even on the highest setting, per the instructions, there is no sound, just the fact that the oven has turned off. And the lighting for the display is very dim and almost unreadable from any sort of distance. Again, this has been set to the highest level that BOSCH allows. I would DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMEND this product for anyone - just based on those two items alone.

This multi-mode oven does so many things and does them well. We used sensor cook for fish that were perfect. The broil feature is handy for warming tuna melt sandwiches. The list goes on and on. Great design and great features.

Very good built-in, combo microwave and speed oven. A little underpowered to below-cabinet models but very even heating and cooking. Honestly, don't use the spped oven feature much, but has been quite good.

We have had this product for 3 years and it has gone out three seperate times. Two while fortunately under warranty and now this time out of warranty and so far has cost us over $500 to fix and we still dont have it back. It has been out over a month. It took two weeks to get service and once we had service they had to take it to the shop for repairs; that was three weeks ago. Now I'm sure the replacement parts are on backorder.
I have owned several run of the mill microwave ovens and have NEVER had this level of trouble. We just spent thousands of dollars remodeling our kitchen and house and thought we were getting good dependable products for the money we spent. Obviously we were wrong. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY. If I could give it no stars and still put in these comments, I would

Great speed oven without rewiring the kitchen

I replaced my old Wolfe stove, hood and microwave a year ago with Miele stove, hood, and blower. I liked the idea of a speed oven, but almost all of them require a 240 V connection. This is one of the few that would work with my 120V/20A outlet and breaker. I was VERY hesitant after reading all the negative reviews here. The saleswoman at my local appliance store agreed that the reviews were terrible, but she had sold a number of these in our area with no complaints. So I went ahead and purchased.
I have been VERY pleased with the versatility and efficiency of the Bosch speed oven. It roasts a chicken perfectly in 42 minutes, and it looks and tastes better than any chicken I've ever roasted in a regular oven (clean up tip - tuck a big sheet of parchment paper around the chicken and under the dish to keep interior clean).
I wanted to add a positive review as I suspect the satisfied customers aren't bothering, so you end up with a distorted view of the product. I'm sure the negative reviewers have had some problems, but their comments are so far removed from my experience with Bosch that I was a bit skeptical that they could be typical. FWIW

I love that this oven is both a convection and a microwave. Very easy to use and opens like a full size oven with door opening down instead of left or right. Soft touch panel with speed functions.

Bought this oven as part of kitchen remodel and of course designed cabinets to accommodate it. Shortly after warranty expired it stopped working due to fuse and microswitch failures. Have had it happen twice since then. We are now into it for over $600 in repairs. I would happily replace it with another brand but nothing else fits the cabinet space. Also the design is stupid. Shelf does not slide out, there is no timer and the alert that the microwave cycle is finished is barely audible unless you are standing nexr to it. I am working with Bosch to discuss a pro rated replacement but I'm guessing that the problems have not been addressed so I'll just start all over again.

The Bosch microwave that came with our house (500 series) failed after about five years, and we replaced with this one. The features, including convection, are excellent. After the first one's non-working turntable, which the Best Buy service team attempted to repair but could not, the replacement seems to be working well.

My biggest regret in our home building process was buying Bosch appliances. I would never recommend to anyone. We have had the appliances 3 years and have had multiple issues with our dishwasher and this oven. We never used the convection setting (only microwave) and were told it would be over $900 to fix. Bosch customer service has been horrible and non responsive. After spend mutiple thousands of dollars on Bosch home appliances, you would think you would get top notch customer service. Horrible product. Horrible customer service.

Just like everyone else- premature failure

We bought a brand newly constructed house in 2017 and this unit was part of it. With a manufacture date of late 2016, today our microwave (we almost never use the convection oven) started shutting off a few seconds after putting something in and turning it on. It does this repeatedly. Like others, this subpar performance and failure for a nearly $2000 microwave is nearly imcomprehensible. I'm already looking at LG and Samsung so I can throw this unit away, given how many failures it has I'd rather not have to constantly repair it. I will not be buying another Bosch appliance and will instead look to brands like LG, Samsung, etc. that clearly are higher quality.

Not impressed with the speed oven, ths sounds are to soft so if you are timing something of microwaving one needs to be on top of it to hear the buzzer. No easy to keep clean as you can not us any abrasive cleaners

After spending almost $2000 on this microwave we didn't expect it to break in the first couple years. We spent money on repairing it since it was out of warranty. It broke again month after the repair. We tried several times to call the customer service and email someone over at Bosch - no response. Not only is their product a total disaster, their customer service is severely lacking. We have their stovetop and oven as well and those work fine, but after their lack of response on the microwave issue I will never again buy from Bosch.

I purchased the HMC80152UC brand new from an authorised dealer when I remodeled my kitchen in late 2015. Within 4-5 months, I noticed that the top control panel was exceptionally dim, despite being set on the highest brightest setting. 8 months later, it went completly dark and stopped working altogether. I used a repair service to replace the panel for $300, but still the display was barely lit. Well, right before the Thanksgiving holiday, the unit died again. I contacted Bosch customer (dis)service and they told me it would be 3-4 weeks before a technicain could even come to look at the unit. Well they came the other day, told me what I already knew (the unit was broken and needed to be repaired) changes me $139 for the service visit, and gave me an estimate of $602 in part to repair it. SOOO not worth it. I'm done with Bosch.....you lost a customer but gained another stellar review.

We purchased our first microwave and oven in 2015. The oven has worked great. It is now 2020 and we are on our third microwave. Our third microwave just failed. We have had this one less than two years. We thankfully have an extended warranty. Four microwaves in 5 years. We are stuck because the microwave is built in and these units are not cheap. We cannot get another microwave without doing cabinet repairs. We reached out to Bosch and got no help. We have other Bosch products, and all work great.

The day I plugged it in it started to randomly turn on and run through programs on its own. Would try to preheat, and once preheated it would turn off and then turn into "demo mode" until it was unplugged and reset.

After 1 year, spent several hundred dollars to have an internal plastic part replaced (a sensor maybe--where the door latches at the top). Year 2: several hundred dollars more to have the same part (but on the other side of the door) replaced.
Year 3: hinge # 1 broke. A few weeks later: hinge #2 broke. The cost to fix would be over $600 because according to Bosch, the hinges cannot be replaced. Rather, the entire door needs to be replaced. Now, when pulling the door open, it cocks and wants to fall. This is an injury waiting to happen if the door falls on someone. The unit is a lemon. While it is out of warranty, it is not outside my state's statute of repose (10 years) for product defects or the statute of limitations for implied warranty claims. I will be proceeding accordingly and sharing my experience on whatever other forum will have me.

We only used this microwave for 1.5 years and only for reheating/defrosting purposes. It completely lost power one day one day when I opened the microwave door, and apparently the reason is a fried control board. It takes $300 to replace the piece. I am extremely disappointed at the quality and warranty coverage of the product.

This microwave was part of a 4 piece Bosch appliance purchase and this microwave has been a nightmare. Replaced the control panel 2 times, and now the door hinge is broken...I've spent over $500 already replacing the control panels, and now this door is over $250 plus installation. Beautiful product but the quality is extremely lacking. Customer service has been unhelpful.

Purchased speed oven and had the panel replaced once...gradually the panel lights dim and the oven no longer works. Bosch CS said the speed ovens are "expected" to last 9 years. If you use your oven, expect half that lifetime on the product. This speed oven is too costly to keep replacing every 3-4 years. Buyer beware. Bosch said to file a complaint with the BBB if unsatisfied with their product or service.

I had purchased this oven in a precious house and loved it. The control panel light worked perfectly for 3 years then just dimmed for no reason. I purchased this again for our new house and the control panel lighting was way too dim to see. Asked for a new control panel and got the same result. Repairman said that it is bacause the wall oven is made in the US and the speed oven is made in China. Bosch, you need to fix this ASAP!

Installed this a few months ago and while it has performed well on microwave, bake and broil my unit has developed a very annoying sound only when microwaving. We most frequently use this as a microwave, it hums like normal but also has a very loud rattling sound that has developed. Hoping this isn't normal bc it makes the appliance sound cheap and frankly the complete opposite of how it looks.

We paid close to $1800 for this microwave. After about 3 years the springs to the door broke. Not only do they not cover this under warranty but to sell parts they tell us they need to send somebody out for $129 just to look at the microwave. You can buy a new cheap microwave for that amount of money and it probably will last much longer than this $1,800 microwave. We thought that we purchased a high-end product but than later on I heard from relatives in Europe that Bosch is actually known for subpar quality. Customer service is not helpful, either. You would think that after spending so much money on a microwave you would get better service.

I had the microwave for about 18 months then the door switches went out causing the unit to go completely dead because it also blows the fuse. I've been reading this is a very common issue. 6 months later went out again, and 6 months after that went out again (3 times). We paid about 1300 dollars for this horrible microwave. Why haven't they fixed this issue. I have been on the phone about 10 times with bosch they have paid for the part but each time we have paid for the diagnostic check... extra (400 bucks) Also the display light is so light it's hard to read. And we had to replace the rotating plate in the microwave because it was sparking. To make it worse I'm stuck buying another one unless I want to buy a whole new oven below. Bocsh has offered me a discount for a new one but I'm still forced to pay 950 for a terrible microwave. Not a happy customer and I will never pay extra money for a bosch again....... I'm in real estate and I buy alot of hi end appliance and give people advice on buying appliances this not the first issue I have heard about Bosch's appliances. I wish I personally new of these issues before I bought the dishwasher that I have also had issues with the latching mechanism. Very disappointed because you pay extra for a premium product and right outside of warranty the appliances are breaking.

We purchased this unit along with other Bosch appliances for our kitchen remodel less than 4 years ago. Today marks the 5th time the unit has failed. We have had to replace the door latches 3 times and the control panel once... not sure which it will be this time, but we are ready to move on. Do yourself a favor - get a Bosch dishwasher but go with another manufacturer for your ovens!

We have owned few properties and many appliances over the year but Bosch 800 series microwave/convection over is over the top in fit finish, quality and functionality. I wish we purchased this sooner. I did purchase 5 year extended warranty and having extra assurance is healthy. Install and ease of use is phenomenal. I wish it had smart integration which would make life easier as well as soft close feature. I can see how you could damage product with some rough use.

We purchased this microwave and within a year had to replace the door switch. Within a year of replacing the switch, it is once again malfunctioning. We have read many reviewers complaining of the same problem on multiple websites. Bosch has not listened and re-designed this switch (located where the door latch connects into the unit). We also agree with other reviewers that you can barely hear the timer go off. Our Bosch dishwasher timer is very loud and persistent. AND now a SECOND problem has begun, again multiple reviewers are complaining of the same problem, the lighted control panel on the microwave has become very dim. We can barely see it. We are extremely unhappy with this purchase!! We bought all upper-end Bosch appliances when we remodeled our kitchen 3 years ago. We are warning our friends to avoid this microwave when!
