Customer Reviews for Bosch 800 Series 30 in. 5 Element Slide-In Electric Range in Stainless Steel with True Convection Oven and Self-Cleaning

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The knob broke easily and had to replace the switch. No issues with the range prior to that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are very pleased with our recent purchase. The Bosch range has been used often and we are happy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This range is the same size as the one it replaced but is so much roomier on the inside. Also it cooks things so much faster, it took awhile to get use to it and not burn stuff. Even the cooktop is way faster than the old one. The only downside is that it's a bit of a finger print magnet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The oven works and looks great. We also like the overhang for the cleaner look. It is deeper than our current oven, so measure carefully. One slightly annoying thing is that the letters/numbers are quite small and hard to read.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this range so much! The heating elements on the stovetop great quickly and evenly. The knobs are smooth but have a little click at each level which I like, you don't have to bend to look at what level you are on. I love that the front left burner can be either size and there is a warming section in the back to keep food ready to serve. I have only used the oven twice and so far it works great with even cooking, a time indicator for preheating and great use of oven time. Oddly my favorite thing is that there are 3 racks and they have a cut out that serves as a handle. Looks great in our kitchen. Only set back was that there are four screws that hold the backplate of the control panel on. Bosch should use ultra low profile screws for this. They stick out making the range slightly more than 30" width indicated on the spec sheet. We had to call service because the range would not clear our newly installed cabinets and countertops. They were able to swap out one of the screws but it has been impossible to find a match for the other 3. Luckily the hardware store had something a little smaller than the original, and we were able to use those. Bosch should either use smaller screws (which would also prevent counter damage during install) or update their spec sheet to show this needs a little more clearance.

All around 4.6. Very good oven and range. Warmer box is good not great, and wish it could also be used as storage. Surface of range is solid and scraps off easy.

This range has a design flaw that causes the control panel to completely freeze when you open the oven and steam comes up. We have had Bosch technicians out to the house twice to perform repairs without success. At the last visit the technician mentioned this is a known design flaw by Bosch and that they are working on a solution. This is a fire hazard as there could be grease fire and you wont be able to turn off the range for 30 seconds. I recommend you look at a different Bosch range.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with our new slide-in range. The feature of the glass extending onto the countertop makes for easy cleanup. We are enjoying the control features, such as, pizza. The top burners respon quickly. A few suggestions: The digital control panel changes when barely brushed. For example, if I am cooking on the back burner with the oven on my body can easily, unknowingly change an oven setting. Also, the lock/unlock feature is super, but it takes ours about 4 seconds which seems very long:) I am concerned about future problems with the opening and closing of the warming drawer. Once it did not open at all with the drawer being empty. I suggest the high setting for the warming drawer to be perhaps 200 degrees. Improving the warming drawer temperature and the drawer opening/closing properly would make a wonderful range even better. Thank you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently gutted my kitchen down to the studs. Remodeled and installed all Bosch appliances. Slide-In Range, Microwave Drawer, Refrigerator and Dishwasher. I could not be happier. Looks great and works great.

Beautiful design with glass top flow over onto counters. Metal knobs make it feel premium. Cooking and baking so far have been excellent, very happy with this Bosch range. Like the indents on the oven racks for easy and efficient pull/push.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although we had our range installed only a month ago, it has proved to be of high quality, user friendly, and looks great in our refreshed kitchen! Read prior reviews about the top being difficult to clean and easily scratched, yet not my experience. This may be because I'm used to a glass range top. Spilled some homemade jam on burner and cleaned right up with a razor blade and glass cooktop cleaner! Oven bake is right on, including convection for baking.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the way this oven looks. I needed an oven that overlapped the counter and this one fit perfectly in the space that was cut out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great oven for people who cook a lot. I haven't seen warming drawers for several years now. I really like it for baking bread and keeping things warm while waiting for other parts of a meal to finish. Some dishes don't heat in a microwave well. I also hate ranges with a little oven on top and a larger oven below. I also really like that the cooktop sits over the countertop. This prevent food from spilling down the side and crumbs accumulating in almost impossible areas to clean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I swapped to this oven when the one I had planned for was out of stock, and couldn't be happier. I love the extra lip in a slide in so you don't have to worry about crumbs and gunk getting in between the range and counter. It looks super sleek, and heats up nice and quick. My one minor quibble is that the touchpad is pretty annoying as far as accidentally hitting it, i now turn the lock on all of the time u til I need to use it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The range looks great in the kitchen and works great. The smooth top heats quickly and the oven with the convection feature browns meats and breads perfectly.

I will start with the good - The stove/oven cooks well. Finishing touches are less than desirable. Rear vent is misaligned flush to the cooking surface on one side; not flush on the other. Excess glue spills out around the cooking surface. We were able to clean off some of this, but not all. After approximately one month the warming drawer (which has never been used) opened slightly and would not fully close. It appears one of the slides is broken, so this will clearly have to be replaced to operate properly.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After months of shopping and we kept coming back to the Bosch 800 because of its solid construction, evident when you open and close the door and use the warming drawer, with its smooth gliding hardware and push-to-release functionality. These two features sold us. The first feature we loved is the beautiful way the cooktop fits the countertop with the glass being wider so that there is no gap to clean or worry about. The oven is packed with features and is easy to use and even easier to keep clean. It's a perfect fit for our economy-sized kitchen and the customer support provided during delivery and installation is second to none. We highly recommend Bosch as a manufacturer and the 800 Series slide-in range for anyone who loves a custom fit when you need to replace an older oven or if you're building new!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We ordered all Bosch appliances after having a good experience with the quietest, most efficient dishwasher ever. We love how easy this range is to use. The control panel has a lot of features with easy-to-select modes. The oven and stove top cook evenly. It took some getting used to when the glasstop lights would turn off and on during cooking instead of staying continuously on. We love the minimal look it gives our kitchen, with the knobs (metal, not plastic) in front of the range. Our only issue is the glass top is difficult to clean, even using products and tools provided by Bosch. We wipe it down after each use, but there are marks and bubbles that do not come off. It could just be a learning curve for us since our previous range was induction. Overall we love the functionality and look of our range and other Bosch appliances.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Beautiful styling. The glass top overlaps slightly with my countertop giving the appearance it is built in. The front panel is easy to use and intuitive. The panel lock feature gives me piece of mind that my pets won't accidently turn it on. I would abruptly recommend this appliance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I waited and finally it arrived. It was worth the wait. My first electric range. I love the sleek design and the ease cleaning. I'm glad I went electric.

I have mixed feelings about this range and Bosch appliance as a company. We have a number of Bosch dishwashers in our office that have had zero issues. We realized that our stove was faulty from the factory. The dual element burner didn’t work properly - the large element turns on when set to “low” and both elements turn on when set to “high.” This indicates a wiring issue with the range. It’s functional but not really how you’d expect it to work. The build quality and the actual working componets do work well. The funny part is seeing the QA person's signature on the sticker with a very basic malfunction. Why did I give this product 1 star? The main reason is that I had to spend 4 hours trying to find someone to talk to at “Bosch” to get help. I spoke to a rep on the 800 number (who is contracted by Bosch) that told me that there is a wiring issue with the range. They also let me know that “Bosch'' can't schedule service and that I’d have to find and schedule my own repair. This was very disappointing. I gave up with Bosch and called Home Depot at this point. After a bit of back and forth I’m supposed to get a replacement range delivered in about a month. I’m hopefull and will update the review if things improve. We were planning on buying the whole set but not really sure at this point.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WE really like this slide in range. The oven works great. The burners light up beautifully. The glas top overhangs the counters just right. WE are concerned that we shouldn't use cast iron cook wares.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The range is very nice and I love how it Extends over counter top. It is easy to clean with a cook top cleaning produce and a glass top cooking scrubbing pad. The oven is easy to use and punch in the degree you want is easy. I ha we been using this stove for 3 months and am satisfied with my purchase. The biggest con is when using the cook top and leaning in a little bit you hit the oven keypad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] . . . because NOW I have a dream stove/oven. I love the extended side top that keeps food particles from falling down the side of the stove/cabinets. The oven racks have handles to easily pull out the racks. The warming draw is a bonus as we entertain a lot and it's great to have the drawer to keep our apps and breads warm until they're ready to be served. The burners are quick to react to a change in settings. I highly recommend this range.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our appliance repairman who is not an authorized Bosch dealer (darn) highly recommended to get all Bosch appliances as they have a reputation of long lasting and few repairs so Bosch appliances are the only ones we considered or reviewed. The appliances we replaced were almost 20 years old. I do not like the control knobs on oven door as I accidentally lean against them when reaching for something in the upper cupboard. This causes the oven to beep and ask for a temperature setting. This happens less often as time passes since I am becoming more careful not to lean against the knobs. Often my foot touches the warming door and the drawer opens automatically; there is no handle on warming drawer so you need to close it with a pot holder so that you do not leave a finger print. "Kitchen timer" will keep beeping until you shut it off (good).  Cakes cook in less time than box instructions and taste perfectly; we rarely use convection mode. I find that food takes less time to bake in this new oven. I really like the "Fast Preheat" option. Stove top burners heat up much faster and seem hotter than our prior range and I have burned my food a couple times so there is a learning curve; the right front burner seems to be hotter at position 4 than the double left burner at position 4. I also have new Calphalon fry pans and that might be adding to the confusion. It is difficult to read the heat settings as they are so faint and partially hidden by the knob itself. I find that I have to bend way down to read them and sometimes need to use a flashlight so I can read the faint number around the knob.

WiFi would be cool, app has matching fridge and dishwasher but not matching oven and microwave. Nice looking oven, convection and warming drawer are rad. Stove is great, seems like pans heat faster than the old stove we had, and the glass top cleans up so easy and good looking.

Just what we were hoping for when we got it home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife loves the floating glass. No crumbs falling in between the stove and counter. Looks great works awesome no complaints. It is a little pricey.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Range is a nice blend of cutting edge styling and classic functionality. I wish it had probe cooking but otherwise is very very nice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in love with this electric range/ oven.
