Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

New microwave

Cooking in Seattle 10/14/2022

Our kitchen has never had a cabinet mounted microwave and we've never had a cooking vent. We love the additional counter space we now have and the ability to vent moisture from cooking outside of our home. Its worked well for us and is easy to use. My only complaint is I haven't been able to register it as the website shows the FD number is invalid. I haven't gotten any support from Bosch to resolve this.

Microwave 10/2/2022

This microwave has a full rack so that you can cook more than one item at a time. The lights are LED for the range top so you don't have to replace them constantly. The door opens and closes easily. The fan is not quiet. The inside is white so I can see inside easily while the food is cooking.

AngelCal 9/6/2022

Product kept cooking even after designated time. A service tech had to come out (shortly after purchasing). He thinks we need a new one, that this new one is defective. He has to check with warranty and will get back to me tomorrow. I'm sorry I bought this!

Works well, but needs more auto-options

jgsailor 9/6/2022

Seems like very even heating, but the main issues are that it's mounted a bit high, and that it doesn't have some of the, what I consider, common options.

The microwave is easy to use. The controls and features are customer friendly. The only thing that could improve it the metal rack should be mounted in the middle of the microwave or higher. We often have to take it out to use the turntable.

Kewlzipity 8/3/2022

Had 4 year old GE profile hated it. Love the design and everything about it. Light underneath is great vent works perfectly. Has a rack and turntable which makes it more versatile than my old one. Like the placement of handle and the sticker I added from packaging inside with suggestions for various cooking items.

Don't buy until you try

Mr. Fix-it 8/3/2022

This is the loudest microwave I have come across in years or maybe my entire life. The microwave uses the old school door hooks. They close tightly, but opening and closing the door is very loud. Also, the microwave fan is incredibly loud. Not just the range vent fan, but the fan that runs during microwaving as well. It sounds like a 30 year old bathroom exhaust fan from grandmas house. Furthermore, after every fourth or fifth use, the microwave fan will stay on even after it's done microwaving. Everything about this microwave is loud and makes it feel cheap. After working late, I'm afraid to reheat pizza because the noise may wake the kids, my wife, or startle the dog from their bedrooms (which are on the other side of the house). Would return if Home Depot would allow. However, it does match my the other appliances. . . Would not recommend this microwave unless you are extremely concerned with all appliances matching (Even then, May want to consider other brands). Bought because I love the bosch 12v tools. Additionally, I was put in an unfortunate situation with the "buy more save more" rebate. In accordance with the terms and conditions of the rebate, all appliances must be purchased together. However, the appliances we wanted were not available, so we bought what was available to take advantage of the rebate. However, after purchasing the set, we reviewed the alternate dishwasher and microwave. They were not rated highly, so exchanged the series 300 for this series 500 microwave. Long story short, refrigerator was not eligible for rebate, exchanged microwave was not eligible for rebate, and with only having an eligible "2 piece set", dishwashers don't count. Purchased with expectations of a $750 rebate. Ended with $0 rebate and are stuck with the appliances we compromised with in pursuit of the rebate.

Bad experience with the Bosch 500 microwave

6/12/2022

I have all Bosch appliances in my home that were purchased 5 years ago for new construction and have been used for 3-1/2 years. After 1 year of use, my microwave, HMV5053U/01, had a couple of the lines disappear on the clock display. This make the clock illegible which is disappointing. The cost to fix the clock is estimated at $300. I chose to live with a faulty clock. Now the microwave randomly makes a quick loud noise that sounds if someone is being electrocuted. The microwave continues to work correctly, but this is concerning. Also this week, my refrigerator, B26FT80SN5/03, has twice poured water out of the ice/water dispenser without anyone near it. I saw it happen the second time and ran water for about 45 seconds, which covered my floor. I have loved Bosch dishwashers for many years and wrongly assumed their other appliances would be as durable and quiet. I was wrong. I am replacing the microwave with a different brand and will do the same with the other appliances as needed. To be fair, I have had no issues with my range, HGI8054UC/06. It has performed well. I still am a fan of their dishwashers also.

Disappointed

Kelley 5/30/2022

We purchased our Bosch microwave expecting it to be as wonderful as our Bosch dishwasher. While it's sleek and attractive, the micro is a disappointment !! For some unexplained (annoying) reason the micro fan continues to run even when the timer goes off !! I was so concerned about it that I contacted the dealer and they sent a repairman to check it. He said it was not a defect, but actually (unbelievably) part of the microwave design !!!!!! It is so irritating & annoying !!!! We actually DISLIKE this micro & wish our original GE hadn't died !!!

New Wave

DAVE 5/21/2022

The looks of the machine is appeasing. It heats quickly and efficiently. The over the range lights are great! It would be nice if the numbers were lit for nightime entry. The door seems to be off center in terms of closing. It has to lift to close. It also seems a bit loud when operating compared to my previous wave. Just my opinion.

Sarah 5/17/2022

I love this microwave! It heats fast and evenly .. it's a great size. Lots of easy options. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is the Bosch emblem on the front is not straight. A small thing but I see it. It looks tacky for a high end appliance. I still recommend this microwave though.

BEST Bosch Microwave

Dreyer 4/20/2022

I am new to Bosch at 80 yrs old. This appliance is a dream. I am use to cleaning my old unit several times weekly do to food splatter (even though I cover my food during cooking). With my Bosch the cooking and warming is much faster, even and with NO splatter. It was close to 3 wks before the first cleaning. Not because it needed it, I just felt like I should. LOVE MY BOSCH MICROWAVE.

Only worked for 4 years!

Blob 4/10/2022

The microwave stopped working after 4 years. Two service calls and $300 later, it was delcared unfixable. Now there is a 6-8 month wait for a replacement. It is a differnt size than other microwaves, so I need to wait for this one, so it will fit in the same spot, even though I will need to have someone re-tile my backsplash after it is installed. I bought a tabletop microwave to use in the meantime. While it was working, it worked well, but the stainless areas were impossible to keep streak-free, even with using the Bosch cleaner. Very frustrated.

The microwave with convection oven is very nice. I wanted the oven to bake pizza but found that it was difficult to get the oven to over 375 degrees. The other issue that I would have liked to seen was automatic starts when engaging the numbered minute buttons. Over all I am very pleased with the quality and style of this oven

Nice but loud.

BJD888 1/27/2022

This is a nice looking microwave, but it tends to be loud. The installation was simple, and fits well. The doors seem robust and the touch pad works and as a unit, it heats well. The only issue is how loud it is. Seems much louder than my old one. I'm not sure if there is something amiss with the unit, it works but is loud.

Definite Upgrade

George B 10/27/2021

The BOSCH 500 Series Over-The-Range Microwave we just purchased is a definite upgrade from the 25 year old microwave it replace. It is very stylish, quiet, modern, and easy to operate. A set of simple instructions on how to use the machine was given and is readily available to handle to do the "once in a while" microwaving we may do. The basics are a easy to do. I would highly recommend this model.
