A few bugs to work out

I'm hesitant to fully review my new range as I've had it for 2 months and the oven has only worked for 1.5 weeks. However, we are LOVING the induction cooktop. Hard to find a slide-in range that overlaps the counter. It was delivered damaged...the metal grill on the back of the cooktop (where the steam from oven is released) was bent. Made of very flimsy metal and I'd be lying if I said the replacement grill was flawless. This metal will make a vibrating noise if not screwed in tightly. My suggestion would be for Bosch to update with stronger material. We also had a cooling fan/control panel error which required 3 additional service calls to work out. Thank goodness it is all under warranty. I'm thinking it may not be a bad idea to purchase an extended warranty with the luck I've had so far. However, it seems like all is well now and I'm looking forward to cooking for the holidays!

Cooks great. Controls are not great.

First off, the induction cooktop works really well. I had a gas stove before this and decided to go with induction instead and will never go back to gas. The speed boost features boils pots of water incredibly quickly — even on the smallest burner. Heat control is instant. Milk starting to boil will subside right away when I turn it down. BUT I wouldn't buy this particular induction stove again. The touch controls are just too poorly designed. First off, they're on the top of the stove and if anything wet gets on them (steam from a pot, for example) they can shut down the whole cooktop. If you accidentally move a pot and touch them, they shut down the whole top. They're also really hard to read and often require multiple touches before they actually sense your hand. The controls are nice and sleek and they seem like it should work well, but in reality they come up short. The oven works fine, but again the controls are not great. The broil only has high or low. You can't change the temperature up or down without restarting the setting. For example, if you open the door to check on something and decide to up the heat, the oven will have to restart and "preheat" itself again, which takes a while and means the foods cooks at a higher temperature until it's done pre-heating. While it cooks well enough overall that won't be replacing it anytime soon. Given a choice I wouldn't buy it again.

We originally ordered the 800 series in black and after 8 months were told it was not available until 2023. We then purchased the Benchmark Induction Range. It did not come in Black but it looks great in our kitchen. Friends recommended induction cooking and it is the first time we have an induction range. It took a few days to get the hang of it but now we love it and appreciate the precise temperature, quick heating and flexible cook zone! The oven is also great; preheats quickly, variable cooking methods, the convention setting is wonderful as well - love the two temperature broiler. Strangely, it did not come with a broiler pan which is strange considering the higher price we paid for this range. Use it daily and are very satisfied.

I will start at the end: I love it. Even though it was not our first induction cooktop, there was still a little learning curve. But once I learned and understood the differences between this unit and the one I was replacing, it was game on! Very intuitive controls, and I particularly like (love) the flexibility of the left-side flex zone, the even heating across the cookware (we use All Clad), and the speed boost function. Beautiful clean design, easy to use, easy to clean, easy to maintain. Zero second thoughts (other than why did we wait so long?). Highly recommended, without reservation.

Nice Range with one repeat issue

Purchased the Benchmark induction range about a year ago. Took sometime to get used to the controls and still have issues when I have a right side burner on and want to turn on a left side burner. I have to keep trying several times before it selects the correct burner. The flex burners on the left seems to suddenly lose power when cooking batches of items like french toast. Not sure why after the 2nd batch it seems to no longer make the griddle hot to keep cooking. Now my biggest issue is the warming draw. I didn't know that I needed it until I had one. Unfortunatly it gets stuck or won't close all the way, or won't open. I had it fixed 3 times and now they are coming again for the 4th time. The rails broke on the warming draw within the first month. Then a few weeks later it wouldn't close properly. Then it wouldn't open. They keep replacing them, but it's not working again after only using it 3 times since the last repair. My wife has given up on using the draw after the 2nd time it stopped opening. What a shame.. I really like that feature.
