CR's Take
The Thermador T36BT925NS is a top-notch 36-inch-wide built-in refrigerator. It's similar to the CR-tested Thermador Freedom Collection Professional Series T36BT920NS, and we expect it to perform comparably. The tested model offers outstanding thermostat control and operates at a very quiet noise level, making it a pleasant addition to any kitchen. It also receives very good scores for temperature uniformity and ease of use, ensuring your food stays fresh and the fridge is user-friendly. However, it receives only a midlevel score for energy efficiency. The T36BT925NS comes with an icemaker, built-in water filter, WiFi connectivity, and digital controls, but it doesn't have a water dispenser. Thermador built-in refrigerators receive an impressive rating for predicted reliability and a respectable rating for owner satisfaction in our latest member surveys, making this fridge a worthy investment for your home.About Consumer Reports
