I dunno about the fawning over Bosch. My Bosch induction cooktop performs far worse than the half price GE Profile cooktop I had at my previous house. The Bosch does not heat evenly at all - almost all energy is focused in the center of the pan. I'm hating it so much I'm about to rip it out and replace it either with another GE or an LG. My mom got an LG induction range and I took my largest pan over to her house, put in a few inches of water and turned it on high - it produced even heating/bubbles across the entire pan, something the Bosch just doesn't do. Feh. I wish I would have done that test before buying the overpriced and underperforming Bosch. Talk about coasting on your brand name.

Agree, I've once bought Bosch washing mashine and it was noisy bad washing mess. After year of usage I've replaced it with LG with direct drive for ~same price and it is just another level - larger 8kg drum iso 5kg in same dimensions, low noise drive and pump, good washing and rinsing with bonus IoT integration.

Which model did you get? IIRC their slide in units are actually made by Bosch, but the standalone ones with the physical dials are actually made by another company, and were generally considered worse.

Our Bosch dishwasher breaks at least once a year and needs a new control board every time it happens. Bosch is junk.

FWIW, same experience here. Replaced it with a quiet KitchenAid that has run for over 15 years, only requiring new tray slides once (and hey were not expensive).
