Just thought I'd ask if anyone has a Bosch benchmark speed oven review? I know they are somewhat new, but I'm not finding any user reviews at all. I'd like a 30 inch, 240 volt speed oven for under counter install and as far as I can tell this--and possibly a Jenn Air?-- is it. Thanks for any thoughts or reviews!

Hi everyone, Just a quick update for you all! Since I posted last time, I have tried the baking soda with vinegar method, together with a few steam and soak cycles - while it got a lot of it out, the really stubborn baked on grease just would NOT come off at all! tt was really frustrating, especially since I spent a whole evening doing just that!!! Then I read about Bar Keepers Friend yesterday and saw a You Tube video posted by someone cleaning his stainless steel stove top with it, and decided to give it a try this afternoon. I am kicking myself now for not having the "pre" photo, but now this is the "post" photo: As you see, it is NOT perfect, but I am pretty happy with the results, after one hour of cleaning!!! I used one of those Scotch Brite non-scratch sponge and over 95% of the grease came off! I also used the BKF on my Wolf stainless steel cooktop for some very stubborn grease and that came off too! I am really happy with that!!! So, I guess I am now a BKF convert! :-) The only thing is, how on earth does one get rid of the grease on the stainless steel panel right above the upper heating elements inside the oven??? I asked this question before but didn't get any response.... I wonder if anyone would be able to advise me on this please? Thanks!

I had not seen "You can not combine these two modes manually" in the manual, so thank you for pointing that out. AutoChef items are the only items the Bosch Benchmark will speed cook: 1-chicken breast 2-chicken thigh 3-whole chicken 4-beef roast 5-pork tenderloin 6-pork chops 7-meat loaf 8-fish fillet 9-brownies Yes, my mileage may vary, but I find this pretty limiting when the Advantium has 100. Granted, I would probably use about 20 of the Advantium's, but that is 100%+ more than the Bosch is offering. Answer found. Unfortunately this likely means upgrading to the Monogram Advantium for flush mounting and to more closely match the Bosch wall oven. Cha-Ching.

We have the Bosch set with speed oven on top, side door opening oven on bottom. I absolutely love both ovens! The side door opening makes cooking almost effortless. There is no awkward reaching or bending and this is from someone with two burn marks on my arm in almost the same place from using our old range! We did not get the double ovens because I felt we did not need the extra oven space plus we use the microwave a lot. Also have the large Breville toaster oven that can be used for extra oven space if needed. We considered Miele as their ovens are beautiful but this was pushing us way over budget so not an option. Good luck with decision, took us at least 6 months to figure out! Btw food comes out awesome in both ovens, obviously very important too.
