Great induction cooktop. 30 amp too

I have a 30 amp circuit - so this was really one of the few choices for me without rewiring. If you do the math, this unit has more cooking area than most other induction 30 inch cooktops by diameter. I considered the next higher model up in the Bosch line - but I probably made the right decision with the 800 as I don't do much griddle cooking or moving the pots between zones.
I wasn't a fan of the idea of red LED controls. I have to say that now that I have it, the red is okay. I prefer the color/look of say the GE Cafe induction - but it is 40 amp so a non-starter. The controls on the Bosch are just a little slow to react. Not painfully slow but close to it. My understanding is this model has their 2nd gen of these controls and improves upon some issues with the prior gen. If you get water on the controls or you put a pot over them - they get annoyed an beep at you. This makes sense if you think about it as it is getting multiple inputs and it clearly has no idea what you are intending. A quick wipe of the controls or moving the pot and you are quickly back in business. There are various count-up and count down timers that I will never use. There are controls for the separate Bosch exhaust fan that is ridiculously overpriced that will also go unused.
I connected the Wifi to get firmware updates. There were none. It is a bit pointless but I was able to turn on a nifty feature through the app that tells you how much power you used in your cooking session. The power used is displayed on the cooktop itself. Most will not care but I like this type of thing. I'm not sure there is much else in the app worth checking out. Obviously, they don't let you do things like turn the cooktop on via the app for safety reasons - and why would anyone need to do this anyway?
The cooking performance is exceptional. It quickly was able to show me that my Fissler brand pressure cooker is a great even heating pot and most of 10-year-old Kirkland all-clad knock off pans need to be replaced as they only heat in the middle. I am amazed how fast the power boost is. I used to reheat soup in the microwave and go through the awkward heat/stir/heat/stir cycle. Now I throw it in a fry pan on power boost and it is boiling in a matter of a minute. Crazy how fast this thing is. Power boost is limited to one burner on the left and one burner on the right simultaneously - which is fine.
Installation wasn't simple but it took every last millimeter of opening in my countertop from left-to-right. I was surprised since I measured before buying and thought the cooktop would have plenty of room. I am not sure if my measurements were off or if the advertised measurements were wrong, but I was certainly surprised how snug the fit was.
Would I buy this model again? Yeah - at this point in time. I research things to death - so I can literally rattle off the specs by memory of all the 30 inch induction cooktops on the market. For me this is still the right choice.

Easy to clean. Instantaneous heat on or off. Replaced old electric cooktop with this unit. Love it. Only drawbacks - not in stock and pricy. Charge went on my credit card immediately. Had to wait almost 2 months for delivery. Warranty indicates it commences upon purchase - not delivery. Best Buy should review their sales policy. Otherwise, I'd recommend the cooktop to anyone.

Looks great and sleek in our newly remodeled kitchen! A learning curve from cooking on a traditional stovetop and NOT all magnetic cookware works well on induction. The boost button boils water in about 2 minutes so think we are going to enjoy it!!

I am very happy with my new Bosch induction cooktop. Looks good, super easy to clean and easy to control the temp on the various burners. Equally important, it arrived on time!
Thanks, Best Buy!

Excellent product - this is our third induction stove top - having had issues with the first two brands. So far we are very pleased with the Bosch. We've been using for a couple of months now and were happy with the install.

Been using one of these for over 10 years. Only downside. These are much more expensive in the US vs Europe

We like the cook top, but very disappointed in the stainless steel border it looks like gray plastic, does not go with other stainless steel appliances. We would have gone all black..

Great cooktop when it works. However, the two times I needed service from Bosch I had to wait for over a month for a technician.
I also did not expect to have to call a technician twice on a new Bosch appliance.
In addition, there are some annoying features like the cooktop loudly beeping if there's any fluids on the control pannel (e.g. if you wipe it with a cloth and not dry it well enough).
However, when everything works, it's a good induction cooktop
