The Bosch 800 Series is one of the newest refrigerators on the market. It has some great new features and a few problems you should know about before you buy.
In this video, you will learn about all the best features of the B36CT80SNS & B36CT81SNS, its reliability, and then a brief comparison against GE, Samsung, and the new Beko on the market. In the end, you will know whether the Bosch is right for you.
First this refrigerator is offered two styles: the B36CT80SNS and B36CT81SNS. The 81 has Pro handles and is a nice compliment to a Pro range if you are remodeling your kitchen. Otherwise, it is the same refrigerator with a $300 added cost with the Pro handles.
Bosch’s best feature is their 2 compressors. Sub-Zero made two compressor refrigerators popular years ago. Basically, two compressors keep air in separate chambers to eliminate crossover of taste, odor, and temperature from the warmer refrigerator to the colder freezer.
The reliability is slightly better than average at 20% service in the first year versus 25% for the industry.
Refrigerators have the highest repair rates due to icemakers. At 25% in the first year, you will probably need service within a couple of years. So, know who will be fixing your refrigerator before you buy. Not when you actually need service.
Bosch has more than any other brand and is significantly quieter. It's a newer product so reliability should improve even more So it is worthy of consideration along with the Samsung, GE and Beko depending on the final prices and promotions as well as product availability.

3:51 Should You Buy It?
Heartbreak!!! About to purchase it today but decided to research even more on YT! Thank you for the knowledge
What did you end up buying I'm looking for a fridge also help please
These videos are amazing. If I lived in the Boston area, would definitely go to you guys.
Really glad to hear it! Thank you
the Yale videos are truly helpful when trying to make purchasing decisions
So glad to hear it!
This was super helpful. Thank you for posting.
You're so welcome!
Brilliant, thank you so much! Very helpful in our refrigerator search...
I have the Beko / Bloomberg French door counterdepth, and it is pretty noisy despite having an inverter type compressor. Paying the extra money for a quieter fridge is money well spent.
What a great review, thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
When comparing counter depth refrigerators in store I noticed that the Bosch doors rub the cabinet when opening the doors all the way. It is due to the placement of the top hinge. It is placed in a way that causes more of the door to hang out when opening. Other counter depths like GE and Kitchen Aid do not have that problem. I am not sure if it was corrected, meaning it may have been an older model being displayed. Some of the stores list the product number and don't specify whether it is an 800 or 500. I did go to several appliance stores (Best Buy, Brandsmart, Lowes and Home Depot) it was an issue at all. I found it disappointing because it seems to have better mechanical components. I am leaning towards the GE for this reason
Due to the way the unit is hinged it does require more space to open the doors all the way. So you would want to be sure the doors/seals are completely exposed.
If my experience with GE is any indication, don't walk away. RUN!
This applies to any and all brands made by Haier.
I had a problem with my GE Hotpoint fridge after only nine months, and calling for service was a nightmare (the woman on the other end was working from home, and every time she started talking to me, her baby started shrieking, not whimpering, but full air raid siren sound effects). She was very rude when I tried to suggest that she close a door so that I could hear her, and she told me that she wasn't going to book a service appointment for me, and she hung up.
I wrote off that fridge, and I share the experience at every opportunity.
Again STAY AWAY FROM ANY GE APPLIANCE (had similar experience with a GE washer) OR ANY OTHER BRAND MADE OR MARKETED BY HAIER.
Great content!
Thank you!
Thank you for the informative videos. I haven’t seen any comparisons against LG products. I’ll you be putting out a video on their products in the near future
We definitely have plans to cover LG more and more
had a lg refrigerator, at two years the compressor died. Replaced. New compressor never worked. told it could not be fixed. gave us full initial purchase price toward a new refrigerator. Yet consumer reports rates lg the best. any brand can bite you.
Is the pull-up drawer dedicated to Deli and cheese? Do you know what temperature the drawer is set to and if there is any humidity control? I believe this drawer should have a low humidity setting. With regards to the four-door unit. How is it possible to keep both vegetables in one bin and fruits in the other when vegetables require a high humidity environment and fruits a humidity environment?
My brand new 36 opens left door when i open right door, the seal bar drags on left door, Fridge is level and doors aligned, any ides, turns out they only sell them in my area, no warranty tech available
Any reason the B36CL80ENS wasn't included?
Great video! Thank you for sharing. Is the company still working on the standard depth 800 series refrigerator? Thank you!
Not that I know of
great overview. Have to disagree on the quiet part, the compressors make an intrusive ringing sound while running, and because it has two compressors very often at least one is running. Called bosch factory service out and they said the noise is normal. One friend I know returned his and the new unit made the same noise.
These new hi tech fridges may measure quieter, but the annoying buzz sounds they make can drive you nuts.
You quite possibly have a ton of noise on your electrical lines, I doubt it’s the fault of your fridge.
Disagree...I never hear mine running. Best refrigerator I've ever owned.
Thank you super helpful
Glad it helped
Bosch dishwashers are next to impossible to get today. I spoke to one dealership who said they’ve been on backorder for over 6 months.
Almost all brands are having significant issues shipping products, so selection might not be as great as we wish
A Bosch dishwasher is worth the wait
Please make a video comparing this bosch fridge vs the kitchenaid offerings.
In a 33 inch wide models please
Great idea!
We'll add it to the list
What is with the water inside the fridge?!? I get that it looks nicer on the outside, but it seems so annoying to open the door every time you want water...
Edit: You're amazing for doing these comparisons!
It's an aesthetic preference for sure. In use, the water/ice can also run down the stainless if you're not careful.
@@YaleAppliance1 It's more than aesthetic. When the ice dispenser is exterior mounted on the door, opening the door can cause the ice sitting in the dispenser to melt and then re-freeze, creating a big clump of ice which the auger inside the dispenser cannot break, causing the motor to jam or fail.
@@edxmon Ah, thanks for explaining.
Why does Bosch B36CD50SNS/02 stop making ice. This is second time in two years.
Bosh B36CT80SNS looks almost exactly the same as Thermador freestanding T36FT820NS with different material in the back on the inside. Which one would you recommend? Do they really have the same functions?
Yes they are the same functionally so purchase the aesthetic that works best for you.
Is there a standard depth version?
Not yet. They are working on coming out with a standard depth option.
Does Thermador 36" freestanding fridge also have two compressors?
I believe so
How do you guys feel about the 500 series?
The side by side? Its OK
Are they made in China?
yes
Hard to find where they are manufactured. If you Google it, it’ll say North Carolina. I don’t believe that.
The Bosch fridge gives off this annoying frequency. I am so disappointed. I will never buy Bosch again!!!
What kind of frequency?
