This is a stylish and sleek microwave which coordinates nicely with the other Bosch appliances installed with my kitchen renovation a couple of months ago. I have been very pleased with it. It does exactly what I expect of it with no surprises. The controls are intuitive. I was expecting the stainless steel interior to take a bit more vigilance in keeping clean than my old white-lined model, but I have not really noticed that so far. I would prefer a side-opening door for easier access although I am getting used to the bottom opening.
