  Slow boiling times, Uneven baking

We bought this Bosch electric slide-in range three weeks ago. It's good, not great. Our biggest disappointment is that the warming drawer and the warming zone both shut off after a few hours of use.

The knobs are substantial. Like any electric glasstop stove, spills are a bear to clean but Bosch does provide a scraper (same as window scraper) and some cleaner to try. Mine cooks a little on the hot side, but I haven't used a thermometer to verify this.

I run this range off an off-grid solar system. I chose this range because its various elements were of lower wattage than other ranges - especially the oven. I also liked the burner layout. The inner ring of the front left burner wastes heat.

I have owned a number of electric ovens and I do not recommend this.The burners are very small in diameter. Both large and small should be 1/2" to 1" larger to properly fit most potsTo control the temperature, the burners do not cycle.
