I love this refrigerator in so many ways! It has less square footage than our last one, but it feels so much larger! The design of the shelves, and the way I can configure them, makes the refrigerator so roomy.
The only thing holding me back from giving it 5 stars is that we have had some issues with the ice maker. We have found it difficult to keep it making ice. The “ice maker off” display is confusing. It seems that would be a simple thing to interpret, but it isn’t. When we get this figured out I would change my rating to 5 stars. The fingerprint-less exterior is so much better than our previous stainless refrigerator. It does get prints but they are minimal in appearance and wipe away very easily. After having a side by side previously, I love that I can easily find what I am looking for in the freezer. I wasn’t sure I would like the freezer on the bottom, but I am finding it holds so much!
It is so easy to organize, and keep organized, this refrigerator and freezer!

Consistent cooling so far and looks great in the kitchen. Inset handles are a nice feature. Fingerprint resistance seems to be good! Hoping for many years of service.

This refrigerator js amazing and has a kot of festures that come with it. The water filter is easy to use and its easy to organize your produce in whatever section you want. I recommend buying this product if your refrigerator is worn out and you are in need kf a new one.

Overall we love this refrigerator. The ice maker is impressively fast and the inside tray layout is great.
This is the most volume we could find for the depth. It is just barely deeper than the counter-depth models. Fits great without sticking out too much. No other brand even came close.
One very minor complaint: The ice maker will drip a little water into the left hand door trays on occasion. This happens when ice cubes are left at the very front of the dispenser auger and the door is opened frequently, which causes the cubes to melt. Not a big deal at all though, and it doesn't happen very often.

It works great, food is chilled to the right temperature in the main part and freezer. Ice maker works great, although you can’t reach your hand in for a cube or two. I love the smooth look and have gotten used to no handles. Easy to wipe down and clean.

I love the sleek look in my smaller kitchen, but with plenty of room on the inside for my family. Didn't think I would need an auto fill for bottle water but apparently I do. So far so good. Just have to make sure I close the doors with a bit more pressure to make sure they are closed all the way.

I did a lot of research on refrigerator/freezers before purchasing my Bosch, and found that they have the better reputation for quality and durability compared to the other brands. The control console was listed as confusing by some people, but I found it to be fairly straight forward if you just read the directions. I plan to have this for a long time so Bosch's predicted reliability is an important factor. I ordered an extra refrigerator door shelf and have plenty of storage space while still being able to see what is actually in the fridge. I installed it myself with no difficulties.

Quality well thought out. Some little quirks.

Overall very good & well built. Bosch makes quality appliances. Ice & water dispensers well thought out. However, horizontal ice maker has a helical archimedian screw extractor to bring the ice to the front, so it's a little bit noisy & a little slow.
The main door finger slots face each other in the middle, with the slots facing each other. They require you to turn your hand over to open the doors, instead of just sliding your fingers in from the sides. ( Think of your thumb down instead of your thumb up). Or you have to use your thumbs to open the doors. This makes for a nice clean design, but it's just a little bit inconvenient for opening the doors.

This refrigerator has been a huge disappointment from the first day. The ice water temperature display did not want to calibrate to start using these features, no help from customer service at best buy or bosch. Figured out on my own to unplug and plug it back in. Two days later at 2 am an alarm started going off, took an hour and after it went off multiple times it finally stopped. Repair came out a week later decided to order a new computer board for it, found out a week after that, that parts cant be ordered. Alarm periodically keeps going off. Now ice maker does not work. I am returning the fridge and have chosen a different brand.

Exceeded our expectations. Ice maker rocks, but takes a bit to start producing ice. Follow instructions on dumping first batches of water, go way beyond the recommended amount.
