Sleek Design but Room for Improvement
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.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.

This is a high end refrigerator at a good price.
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I never thought I'd be writing a review of a refrigerator, but here we are. This thing is freakin awesome. We replaced a 9 year old 28cu. ft. French door LG with this one and couldn't be happier. Yes, it says that it has less cu. ft. for storage inside but I swear we can fit more food in this one. There are many things to like bout this model (and Bosch in general), but I'm going to highlight what really stands out to me: Running volume - this thing is quiet. Like, extremely quiet by comparison to every fridge I've ever owned. Ice density - the cubes that it produces are more bean shaped than your standard hard-edge crescent and they are DENSE. I fill up a Yeti cup with water on my way out the door each morning and the ice lasts until the end of the day through multiple refills while at work. Ice production speed - we have yet to run out of ice from the dispenser whereas the LG would run out regularly. Water spout - this seems trivial, but it matters. The water dispenser is designed for the water to come out at an angle pointing away from you, thus reducing the amount of water that splashes on you when it gets towards the top. Small detail that goes a long way. Lighting - not only is the lighting bright (but not too bright) it lights up where you need it to but doesn't feel like you've opened up a time-traveling portal when you open the fridge door at night. They also have this really cool fade-to-dark thing they do that is an elegant touch. Smart features - I personally think a "smart fridge" is stupid and over-kill, but Bosch pulls it off in a really subtle and useful way. They have this deep freeze feature where you can essentially tell the fridge from the phone app that you're on the way home from the store and it will get itself REALLY REALLY cold so that when you're loading your groceries in you're not risking all of your food warming to room temperature while you've got it wide open. French doors - the door on the left opens almost effortlessly (takes very little pull to get it to release the air lock and open) which is nice. Its also not necessary to open the left door for the right door to close all the way. The flap has a track that it follows when you close the right side door that guides it into place for the air lock without the need to open the left door. Temperature consistency - probably the most important feature of any fridge. This thing is ridiculously consistent. I've tested both the fridge and freezer and with a fridge thermometer and they are both reliably accurate at all times under almost every usage scenario.

Bosch Refrigerator
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Replaced a Samsung refrigerator that had many many issues. This refrigerator is great. Ice is fast, and comes out in whole cubes that go into my glass and not all over the kitchen floor. Temperature is accurate, the freezer is large and the interior of the refrigerator is well laid ut

Q: Questionhow to change the water filter and where to buy the water filter.
Asked by bev.
- A:Answer Hi bev, thank you for your question and interest in Model:B36FD50SNS. This is the Water Filter for your Refrigerator and it can be purchased at Best Buy: Model: BORPLFTR55. To change the filter: Reach into the recess below the filter cover, pull it forwards slightly and move it to the bottom left. Turn the water filter counterclockwise by 90° and remove it. When removing it, a small amount of water may drip out of the water filter. Remove the drips of water with a dry cloth. You can dispose of the old water filter with your household garbage. Insert the new water filter or the bypass cap in the filter opening as far as it will go and turn it 90° clockwise to the stop. Move the filter cover up to the right and slide back as far as it will go. Discard the ice cubes produced during the first 24 hours, and dispense water for 5 minutes and discard.
