My preferred setting is 3 -The temperatures are adjustable by degrees and can be made to keep the fridge really cool. -This fridge truly does prolong the freshness of your fruits and vegetables! Strawberries, cilantro, Celery, parsley... you name it. -Finally, this machine just looks beautiful!

    So far so good, I am hoping this refrigerator holds up after reading some of the reviews. Love the organization, chilling features and sleek design of this Bosch refrigerator! It’s also super quiet and makes plenty of diamond shaped ice. I just wish the handles were not partially made of plastic, as they are a bit cheap looking for the price of this fridge. I have been trying to find a different style Bosch OEM handle that would fit this B36Ct80SNS model but after speaking with Best Buy and Bosch customer service (both were very helpful), there doesn’t seem to be an alternative. Sorry I didn’t consider purchasing the model with the recessed handles instead.

    Our Amana stopped working after 17 years (not bad). After some internet search we went to Home Depot, however, most of the products we liked would not be delivered with a week. At Best Buy we noticed Bosch 800 and it was visually very appealing. At PC Richard we were quoted price $200 lower, and Best Buy matched that. The product was deliver and installed (but not leveled) within one week, the old Amana was hauled away for recycling. It took some time to get use to the french door, now we actually like it. Bosch800 is a good appliance, very quiet, hope it will last 18 years.

    Pretty good fridge. It looks great. My main issue is that the right side door requires an extra push to close. It’s a bit annoying, but we are getting used to it. Good thing, the alarm does go off if it’s left ajar. The water spout does seem to leak drops of water, too. We had a tech look at it, but he wasn’t able to fix it. I love the ice maker capacity. Fruit, veggies seem to stay fresher longer than our old fridge. Recently, the ice maker stopped making ice, but we figured out it was because the water filter needed to be replaced. Once we did that, ice was back in production. Also, we really wanted a true counter depth a fridge, and this fits that space extremely well. The home connect app is helpful. It notifies your phone of the door being left open, ice maker reaching capacity, and the water filter requiring replacement. For a 3000 appliance, I’d except the door to be better balanced and the water dispenser to not shed droplets post pour. Bosch customer support isn’t good. The wait is weeks long for a service appointment.

    Love, love, love our new refrigerator! You would think that with a counter depth fridge you would limit how much space you have, BUT this is configured so well that we have a ton of space. It is also so nice to have the water dispenser inside as this lends to a clean, sleek look. We had a sub zero that came with our previous home and we love this fridge more than that one. It keeps everything cold and closes smoothly. Just perfect!

    This fridge is amazing and has all the bells and whistles. It is very innovative with storage solutions and movable racks. The only negative is that the freezer items are a little difficult to reach as the whole tray has to be removed to get to most of them. It's worth the trade-off though. I've heard horror stories from friends about their black stainless appliances getting scratched just by cleaning or refrigerator magnets. I have 2 Havanese (small dogs) that dance in anticipation of treats with their feet & sharp nails brushing against this fridge several times a day. Not a scratch! It is beautiful AND tough!

    Landed on this fridge given its dual compressor and evaporator set up. First week or so has been really good. Freezer space is a but smaller than the side by side it replaced but makes up for it with the fridge compartment and making it easy to just see everything. Internal water and freezer icemaker is supposed to make things more reliable as I understand physics works against you with in-door ice on bottom freezer set ups. Looks amazing in our kitchen and fits in the space almost like it integrated

    Very Nice. We went from 27CF to this counter depth 21CF model but the space is still great. My only issue is the middle sliding door is of little quality and I am waiting for it to crack. It has a nice seal but when you pull to open the drawer front bends a lot so you have to be gentle.

    Great refrigerator for small family. Well lit and open interior. Crispers are spacious and easy to clean. Plenty of side door storage. Freezer is a little small but the spaciousness interior of the fridge more than makes up for it. If you need a large freezer this is not going to be your top choice. Very quiet. Love it! 5 stars on capacity because it's a counter depth therefore you know it's not as large as full capacity when you purchase it.

    Fridge okay, however, world’s slowest ice maker

    Overall we like the upper fridge portion and it functions well. Had a bit of trouble dealing with Best Buy when the first one showed up with a giant dent in the door. Our main issue with this product is the freezer/ice maker. It has to be the world’s slowest ice maker. We are a two-person household and whenever we have 1-2 guests, the ice supply depletes so much that it takes a full month to replenish to full with just the two of us using it. We’ve had to buy bags of ice countless times. Pretty frustrating for such an expensive refrigerator. I’d say if you’re a family of 3-4+ and like to use ice avoid this model at all costs.

    Good refrigerator. The doors are the main flaw. The 4" doors hit the oven and microwave when open all the way and the left drawer will not open unless both the left and right doors are open. Why couldn't the left drawer have been smaller than the right drawer to enable opening only one door to access a drawer? We love the sleek water dispenser.

    The elephant in the room

    Like having a Mack truck parked in your kitchen. This fridge is handsome but is huge as in wide and tall. It is replacing a GE Profile in black paint that was also counter depth but 1 inch shorter (had to cut my opening.. again) and a half inch wider. That said we love the inside space and lighting! Haven't fully utilized the "special temp/humidity drawers" but it actually does seem to keep our produce fresher longer. They are a bit difficult to pull out full length but it's a learned skill I think more than a design flaw, It also requires another 6 month must replace "filter???" for the ethylene gas capture. a little disappointed in the pyramid ice cubes because they are pretty small, half inch size? The scoop is pretty cool, there is a ton of ice and they do scoop up easily. Also note that the cubes don't stick together which shows the consistency of very cold temperatures. Freezer drawers are a nice feature much better then a deep pile of frozen stuff. Doesn't quite hold as much as older refrigerator but more then makes up for it with organization. It is supremely quiet in operation even the ice cube drop part is not disrupting. The inside water dispenser I'm finding is not really inconvenient and does fill a glass or pitcher very quickly with never a splash. Well thought out design. All in all we are very pleased and getting used to the mass of stainless steel, a few magnetic souvenirs tame down the industrial look. Ignoring my petty complaints, we just love this fridge!
