Bosch Home & Kitchen Appliances Bosch Serie 2 FEL023MS2B Freestanding microwave, 44 x 26 cm, Stainless steel

Great size and perfect for what we need. This microwave heats food and drink up quickly and effectively. The unit came well packaged and was sorted out and installed in less than 10 minutes. Easy to use settings whether using a preset button or manually setting the requirements. Very easy to clean and fits in well with the kitchen.

Good design looks smart in the kitchen. Went for this as space limited. Has a grill but not tried that yet. Its easy to use. E.g. poached egg. Crack egg into a cup of water and add salt. 1min 5 sec and its ready to eat. Like the fan that ventilates the inside. So far very happy with it.

This is a very good no frills 800w microwave that was chosen primarily for its ease of use but also its diminutive size as it just fitted on the kitchen counter top in the space under the boiler cupboard so did not take up unnecessary space. It is a microwave with a grill and I would have liked an oven function but at this price point I was prepared to make a small sacrifice. It pretends to be nothing that it isn't and as such can be fully recommended.

This microwave is just about OK. It cooks the food, of course, but it has a couple of drawbacks. The controls are not intuitive and adjusting the timer is annoying - when you set the timer it increases the time very slowly at first, so it takes a lot of effort to get to 2 minutes. After a certain point it suddenly rockets ahead, so you suddenly jump from a few minutes to 14 minutes and have to wind the time back down. This is annoying. Also, when we put small things in the oven it buzzes and sparks as though there is metal in there. I generally have to put a cup of water in there together with the thing I want heated, just to stop this behaviour. My old microwave could handle small items, such as melting a little butter in a bowl. My son uses professional microwaves in a professional kitchen and has none of this trouble. To balance my review, the microwave looks OK, wasn't very expensive and hasn't actually caught fire. Next time I might go for a Panasonic.

I love BOSCH and ordered this BOSCH Microwave and was expecting the same BOSCH quality. Was surprised to see that the door is not aligned with body on one side. Look at the first picture. Asked for a replacement rather than return as I still trusted BOSCH. I was offered £19 discount to keep the defective microwave but I declined. After receiving the replacement … The replacement arrived promptly and I was right, the door is pretty much aligned in this appliance. Still not perfect but can hardly tell. Look at the 2nd picture. Will keep this. Thanks

Bosch, does what it says on tin…

Very good microwave. Worth the extra expense.

Superb. The controls are intuitive and helpful.
