CR's Take
The 37-inch-wide Thermador Freedom Collection T36BB915SS built-in refrigerator offers impressive performance, with top-notch thermostat control, very good energy efficiency, and solid temperature uniformity. However, its ease-of-use and noise scores are only satisfactory. This model is equipped with an icemaker, a built-in water filter, and WiFi connectivity, but it lacks a water dispenser. In our latest member surveys, Thermador built-in refrigerators received an outstanding score for predicted reliability and a respectable score for owner satisfaction. Overall, this refrigerator is a strong choice for those seeking high-quality performance and reliability.About Consumer Reports
