It is really easy to use straight away and has extra features if you want to consult the manual. I had an electrician on hand to wire in but fitted the oven myself with ease (help lifting it in)

excellent oven and an excellent fitting team would use A.O.com again. thank you

Great oven, with both top and bottom ovens able to be used as an oven or grill. The bottom oven also has fast preheat and fan options. The knobs can be pushed in when in the off position, allowing you to quickly see when everything is turned off. Looses one star due to the lack of a traditional grill pan which can easily be taken during cooking. Keep in mind that it's not fully self-cleaning - only the back of the oven has a self-clean coating - the rest is enamel, which is easy enough to keep clean, but isn't "self-cleaning".

Great, smart looking oven. Not as powerful as the one it was replacing but it was time for a new oven.

Bought as a replacement for a Siemens oven that stopped working after many years' service. As Bosch is the same company, the design & features are very similar, but this one has more options than the Siemens. The important thing for me is that there is a grill separate from the main fan oven. Things I like: smart appearance; the fast-heat option - although this oven seems to heat faster than the old one anyway; the option to push the buttons flush with the fascia. Things I don't like, and why it gets 4 rather than 5 stars: The heat controls have been designed so that the markings are faint, and the temperature range most likely to be used is marked underneath the projecting control, and to see these markings you have to bend over. This is very poor ergonomics. The oven is supplied with a deep universal pan that can be used as a grill pan, but it is not supplied with a wire rack to fit it. Luckily, I kept my old Siemens grill pan and rack, which also fit the new appliance. It is worth pointing out to potential purchasers that Bosch has an option to purchase 3 extra years' warranty to extend the total to 5 years.

Still learning how to use it. Like most things but wish the marks on the dials were darker as have to use glasses every time I put the oven on.

So far have baked a cake, oven chips and made two roasts all of which turned out perfectly. Am very happy with the size and of the ovens and the overall look. Only improvement Bosch could make would be to have a pyrolytic option.

Bosch are always a reliable brand and this is no different. The oven heats up quickly, even without the pre-heat boost function. There doesn't seem to be much radiant heat loss so most heat is used to heat up the food inside the oven. The lack of a Pyrolytic cleaning function on this model knocks a star off.
