Bosch KUL15A40GB White Built-in Under counter fridge Reviews

+ Much easier than other makes to fit and level due to the long handle to adjust height of legs at the back. Good arrangement of compartments on the inside of the door, plus excellent idea to be able to slide open the salad drawer cover rather then lift.

- Haven't found any yet but then it is only two months in situ.

+ The space and versatility of the shelving and salad compartment is excellent.As this is our first purchase of an integrated fridge, we are more than pleased with the quality and performance of this particular model and would recommend it.

- None that we can find.

+ I like the salad storage area, no plastic boxes to break and a sliding shelf that makes the salad storage accessable without losing a shelf. More robust than other fridges I have had.

- Not found any as yet

+ Easily fit into old integrated space, has so far worked well, it's quiet and makes the most of the space.

- Nothng really...

+ Covered drawer at the bottom (sliding shelf)
Folding shelf
Clear storage unit on door
Quiet
Cheap to run (electricity)

- Spacing between door shelves

+ Very surprised by the amount of room inside I thought that with it being built in it would be a lot smaller.

- None

+ Very pleased with applicance

- Bottom salad draw but wasteful

+ Temperature control excellent, much better than my old one. In general, very pleased with it.

- Probably down to me but I felt the assembly/installation instructions could have been a lot clearer.

+ Lots of storage. 'A' rating.

- Dont like the fiddly salad drawer.

+ I liked the way the cupboard door was fixed to the unit nowhere near as complicated as the unit it replaced.

- To get the maximum shelves the space between is a bit small. Cannot stand a 500ml bottle of milk upright. Don't want to overload the door as this was the problem with the previous fridge by another manufacturer.

+ Quiet and does what it says...keeps things cold

- rear feet a bit difficult to adjust

+ Reviewer left no comment

- can't store anything big dreading christmas nowhere to put stuff

+ Very spacious, nice door compartments that all come off and are easy to clean, glass shelves which are easy to clean aswell.
Adjustable door.

- none

+ No bad points found yet.

- Integrated fitting instructions are drawings only and are difficult to understand in parts.

+ This appliance holds as much as we need to put in and is much better than our previous fridge

- The only bad point is having to empty the bottom shelf whenever we need to get to the salad bin underneath

+ Built in fridge with an icebox - very difficult to find

- Not easy to access the salad box

+ capacity, silence,internal lighting

- baSE STORAGE BOX COMPLICATED

+ its cold

- non to date

+ You can still get to the vegetable box even if you have items stored on the glass lid.

- Cannot store enough full height bottles in the door if all the various shelving bits are fitted in.

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Tools required to fit are european and not commonly in the tool box.

+ It is very Quiet
Easy to clean

- Shelves could have a few more adjustment levels

+ Very good build quality, easy to install. Good use of internal space.

- The lowest door storage half shelf is too low to allow tall bottles and milk containers to be placed under it in the bottle holder at the bottom of the door. The shelf can however be removed if you need alot of bottles and cartons in the door holder.

+ Well built. Quiet running.

- None so far.

+ Good capacity, quality feel.

- Allegedly the ability to keep consistently cool. I have it set to 4/5 on the temp gauge. Did not do well in recent 2007 Which ? reports. However so far more than happy. Not experienced summer yet as bought in winter

+ Door storage is good

- Sliding salad a little difficult, retreving food if items have been placed on top.

+ Glass shelves, bottom shelf folds up so to access bottom trays

- None

+ quiet, good capacity, contols temperature well, well constructed, easy to build into kitchen units

- salad box is diificult to use as it is accessed through the shelf over the top (this is a feature of many built in fridges)
Expensive compared with a free standing fridge

+ Clean lines; well designed inside; ease of operation; well fitting door; strong spring to close door; easy instructions for fitting kitchen door to fridge

- Very tight fit to normal spacing (1/2 mm less would have helped); instructions did need a few words of explanation; settling in did take 4 days to stabilise temperature; setting of 2 then 3.5 before below 5 degrees was obtained; temp. control was too easy to knock off the setting when items were placed on top shelf; more locations are needed to set the different levels for the contents of the fridge; extra screws would help in fixing up since easy to lose 1/2 during set up.

+ Good space utilisation
Excellent salad drawer design

- Poor method of adjustment for altering depth of cover trims i.e use of stanley knife - unsafe

+ Good quality and temperature excellent.

- Getting the fridge level. The lack of the proper tools, which were not supplied, and not found in any of the local diy stores, resulted in unnecessary anguish.

+ when you close the door has good suction so a good seal when closed, very efficient refrigeration,easily cleaned

- the temperature dial is too easy to move, so if you catch it by accident it can move to 5 and this freezes fragile foods like vegetables and fruit even when they are in the salad compartment

+ Well made.
Strong door closing.
Versatile shelving

- A little fiddly to install - nice and neat though when complete

+ Very quiet when working. Interior is bright due to glass shelves. Good built-in kit and instructions.

- Salad bin is tricky to get to as the glass cover slides out to allow access. This can mean that anything on the cover may fall into the bin.

+ Compact low noise
Ideal for small flat
Easy to adjust rear feet

- none

+ Its integral,so it doesn't look like a fridge. It has a special cheese storage on the door were its kept cool but not too cold in the main body of the fridge.

- It was a little smaller than I had expected because it has to have a vent coming from underneath because it is integral with no breathing space gaps to the side, top etc so this makes it smaller than a conventional under the counter fridge.

+ Extremely efficient. It is nice to have truly cold milk compared with previous fridge. Easy to fit, including swapping over the door hinges to open from the left.

- The shelf layout needs a little getting used to.

+ Salad box, low running costs

- No shelf adjustment.

+ Runs quietly. Type of shelves make inside easy to see what is stored where.

- Entry into salad drawer is a bad design. At times when maximum space is required in the fridge one can't store items on the top of the salad drawer as it slides out. My previous fridge had baskets that slid out in an upward direction and worked very well.

+ Bottom slide shelf area sturdy and well built. Brilliant for the salad stuff

- Funny little top shelf on fridge door not much use but kids like it for storing sweets

+ Quiet, efficiently chills at low setting so presume will be very economic to run. Automatic defrost makes life easier and the vario shelf is useful when storing tall items and the 3 shelves are very useful.The bottle rack divider is moveable so can be spaced for individual bottles.

- Difficult to fit, could not get adjustable feet to adjust. Not enough space inside fridge, I used to have a freezer box in my old fridge and expected to have more space with a larder fridge. The glass cover on the salad container is awkward to pull out and hard to put together initially or when cleaning.

+ fairly easy to install
very quiet running

- would be better if shelves were adjustable. poor design for access into bottom veg compartment

+ easy to install clearly ex plained instructions well set out interior

- not enough door space for larger items

+ easy access to bottom drawers and sliding shelves

- SMALL door racks a mystery NOT SURE WHAT GOES WHERE

+ Easy to fit. Nice and cold. Very good layout. Quiet.

- None really

+ Good build quality, lots of room inside

- none

+ Overall a great fridge

- The silly half shelf and also the way the salad tray opens. Not very convenient

+ very solidly built, silent and spacious

- The slot for milk bottles is just too big for glass bottles

+ Extremely spacious and excellent design

- None!

+ good value, cools brilliantly, very quite, a rated

- not quite as deep as my old fridge but am getting used to it

+ Good sound interior design and layout, quiet running.

- None at the moment

+ It was easy to fit in under the units.

- Nothing yet!

+ Nice storage space inside.

- Unattractive. Difficult to assemble. Poor instructions. No indication upon purchase that you would need to buy additional tools to assemble the product
(which are European and not imperial)Very disappointing overall.

+ Easy to fit and more spacious inside compared to similar products

- none so far

+ good use of available space

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Realy efficient,Noiseless,a good solid appliance.

- salad cooler alkward to open and restricts bottom shelf.

+ easy to clean shelves,quiet running

- shelves inadequate for storing most jars.have to lie down on side.bottles also big problem for standing upright.adjustable middle shelf only of small benifit.shelves on door same prob.had to remove egg compartment to accomodate.

+ Three shelves in body of fridge, middle shelf folds in half, veg box openable without emptying shelf above it

- Top basket in door would be more useful if it was deeper, basket on door that has a flap can discharge contents if not clicked quite shut

+ Well thought up space wize.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ easy to fit kitchen door fascia panel on front, good quality fridge and design layout inside.

- rear adjustable feet difficult to adjust with poor designed mechanism. Instructions not brilliant.

+ Fits well under units

- Flymsy supporting legs.

+ Met all our requirements.

- None.

+ very practical well design product

- as many other reviewers have reported, the adjustable rear feet feature does not work - why are Bosch not listening to their customers??

+ have found all bosch products built to last,have 15 year old washing machine and 19 year old dishwasher still working, and no call outs.fridge of 19 years was still working but was drawer system and wheels were broken so decided to replace.

- read reviews about this before i bought.a lot of comments said too cold if on high which made me decide to buy as i found my other one could have been colder.this one is a lot better but keep on high all the time, could have been colder on high.no problems with slide out salad drawer as comments said.

+ Reliable, robust and energy efficient.

- Not sure that it has optimised space efficiency, especially at the bottom.

+ I love Bosch, always solidly built, simple, does what it is supposed to. The fridge is very quiet too.

- The door closes a bit heavily - tendency to slam

+ Nice spacious little fridge for its size and plenty of slots to move shelves around to how to like them - obviously you don't have to use all those provided for the door if you want larger gaps for taller bottles and jars etc.

- I'm a 54 year old housewife and I fitted this integrated fridge myself, levelling it and swapping the door so it hinged the other side so not hard to do although I did find the fixing for my decor panel a little confusing and fiddly.

+ Does not have a freezer compartment which many do (waste of space in such a small fridge). More shelves than most similar models.

- One of the rear adjustable legs was jammed so could not be adjusted. Colud have asked for a replacement but by the time you've taken a day off etc etc I just muddled on without adjusting one leg to right height. There are two screws holding fridge to work surface so they keep it steady.

+ All of the above

- None

+ Wipe clean shelves, well lit for seeing what's in fridge, easy access and vision into salad box.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ Quiet and well built. Does the job and temperature seems stable.

- Slightly more flexibility for shelving height adjustment would be useful but don't let that put you off - it's a fine fridge.

+ Glass shelves, slide door across salad bay, very quiet, very energy efficient

- fitting instructions were diagrams only, words to accompany would have been good. would like more adjustment in shelf height

+ Convenient split shelf - providing extra storage for taller items.

- Reviewer left no comment

+ So easy to install, my daughter did it for me....value for money does exactly what it says on the tin....

- Can't fault it.

+ Easy to fit, plenty of storage with split shelf for taller items, moved down from much larger fridge to this and thought it would be a problem, not at all! Very quiet to run. Under shelf storage is not a problem as I had read in other reports, you just have to be sensible what you put on the sliding shelf above it!!!

- none!

+ Good build, like the flip over shelf so you can fit taller items in the shelf below and still have a small shelf behind.

- None.

+ Quite and this is our second model.

- No little white spots on the glass.

+ Neat, efficient, sleek looking, feels sturdy

- Reviewer left no comment

+ well built and easy to change door to open the opposite way.

- rear height adjustment legs didn't work well.

+ good product

- more expensive than others

+ Glass shelves better than grill type in my old fridge

- Real problems with badly drilled holes in the front so that changing the side that the door hangs was actually impossible. Badly designed mechanism for holding fascia to front of fridge, ended up using the one from my old fridge after much time spent trying to fix the problem. Fridge hinge spring too strong - slams shut. Bizarre screw heads so we needed to buy a completly new screw driver to fit fridge
Would NEVER buy Bosch again!

+ Easy to fit, remote adjustment for rear jacking feet is an exellent idea, door cover fitted easily and looks well fitted in place, internal layout good

- none

+ Reviewer left no comment

- Salad tray can be awkward to access if using bottom shelf

+ After our last model (Baumatic) this is so quiet.

- The design of the salad box is poor

+ capacity, especially when I compared other integrated appliances.

- none as yet

+ Quality fridge with a 2 year guarantee. Keeps food and drink really cold, if required. also quiet and energy efficient.

- Pricey compared to other manufacturers, but in this instance, believe you get what you pay for! Rear legs a bit fiddly to adjust when levelling.
