Saying "Baruch Hu uBaruch Shmo" during kiddush

Hi,

One who is fulfilling a mitzvah by hearing another person's blessing, such as for kiddush, should not respond Baruch Hu uBaruch Shmo during the blessing. However, having done so, one has fulfilled his obligation. This is because some authorities do permit responding Baruch Hu uBaruch Shmo, and because reciting the blessing a second time would be inappropriate if it were unnecessary.

(Rivivot Ephraim 1:193)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
