- A: AnswerThe water will freeze on the Crushing Blades, you either have to break it off of the blades, leave it out of the unit to melt the ice on the blades or call Best Buy so they can send out a Tech to perform the above. It is the worst design that I have ever seen, I have had my unit for 75 days and have already had 2 service calls with 2 different appliance repair companies. When Best Buy sent their Tech out he even brought a replacement part with him before seeing my refrigerator, I have never seen that before.

Q: QuestionCan I purchase with out ice maker?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHi, thanks for your question and interest in Bosch products. At this time, we do not offer this refrigerator without the ice maker feature; we apologize for any inconvenience.Answered by BoschAppliancesUSA
- A: AnswerHi Chris, thanks for your question. If the unit you are purchasing is a display or floor model, it will come with a functional warranty of one year starting from the date of purchase. However, there won't be any cosmetic warranty, and any missing parts won't be replaced under the warranty. On the other hand, if the item is sold "as-is" or listed as a "resold" unit, it won't be covered under any warranty.
Answered by BoschAppliancesUSA
- A: AnswerI have the same issue. I was surprised for a new refrigerator to be that noisy. I don't know if it is normal but at least I know now that I'm not the only one!

Great upgrade to replace our 20 year old fridge
We went from a Side by Side model to a French Door version. We have had this fridge for a month now and really like it. Pros: - This fridge is very quiet - There is a lot of storage space both fridge and freezer - You can fit more items on the door shelves on the ice maker side than in other models. - The top freezer shelf pulls all the way out unlike some models. - it is much easier to organize food in the freezer section than it was in our side by side - My wife loves the water bottle fill feature (NOTE: you must watch it, if the bottle has water in it the fill feature will fill the bottle to the very top. We usually just tap the button to stop it) Things to consider - The 500 series isn't as well lit as the 800 series. With that said I have had no issues finding food in it - the water dispenser stream angles to the back and not straight down - the crisper drawer on the ice maker side cant open all the way if the other door is closed, however it opens far enough to where I can get what I need from it - a forth drawer separate from the main fridge for meat and cheeses would be nice to reduce opening both doors but that was only and option in the 800 series which is back ordered and too tall for our space. - When we first got it we stored our food in coolers to let it get to the correct temperature as per Bosch's recommendation. - read the manual there are a ton a refrigeration features for this model. We are definitely happy with our purchase

Replaced an older GE model that was almost 29 years old. Hope this one lasts. It fit perfectly and is bigger than I thought. So far it's been great. Easy to clean and can configure the shelves any way I want it!

Sleek Design but Room for Improvement
I just purchased the new Bosch 500 26 cubic foot refrigerator. I was excited to see they finally came out with a full size. Pros: Love the interior and the see through drawers and shelves, and the stainless steel back. The door shelves are large and fit more than my previous refrigerator. All the drawers roll smoothly and are quiet. The water dispenser is great as it angles back and doesn’t spray. The opening to the dispenser is much taller and will fit a bottle and has a hands free fill. The freezer has lots of storage. Cons: The water/ice dispenser is a little high for kiddos. If you have a home with teens it’s fine but the littles will struggle to reach. The biggest drawback for me is the lack of interior lighting, it looked perfect until I started filling it with groceries. The two side lights just aren't enough, and for the $3000 price tag I would expect more. The top shelves are dark because of this and could use a light above. The ice maker doesn't hold a ton and I was disappointed when it was removed to empty the first batch of ice. It definitely holds more than ice makers that are built into the door, but not as much as others with ice makers built into the refrigerator. It claims to be fingerprint resistant which is not the case. It has a door alarm but it doesn’t work if the door is touching but not closed all they way. It senses the mullion which is the strip that creates a seal when the two doors are closed. The air vents are positioned in inconvenient places and will freeze your food. You definitely need to be strategic when stocking the refrigerator or you’ll end up with frozen eggs. I never paid attention to air vents before and couldn’t tell you where they were placed as this was never an issue. We needed a repair man right after install because one of the doors would not stay open and kept swinging shut while stocking. It’s basically a design flaw according to the repair person. Most doors will stay open until you shut them. If your floor isn’t perfectly level these doors will close. Made in China. I have all Bosch appliances and this was the missing piece. It’s a beautiful appliance but has room for improvement in my opinion.
