I consider this fridge a glorified hotel bar fridge. It is poorly designed, inefficient, poor quality, noisey and extremely overpriced.In this day and age you would expect all fridges to be frost free, but this one is not. Being a "semi-frost free" fridge, ice and frost will form on the back of the fridge. A water trap/drain on the back wall takes up valuable space in this already tiny and shallow fridge. This also contributes to the inconsistant temperture inside the fridge which you can really tell with highly perishable foods -- foods in the back is more humid (often wet) and cold or frozen while the space in the front is not cold enough, you can never find a perfect temperture setting for this fridge.For being such a small fridge you would think that the interior would be smartly and efficiently designed to maximize space, but it is obvious that no thought was put into its design. I threw away the wine rack as it took up a good chunk of interior space.Other faults of this fridge:- The egg tray holds only 10 eggs, not a dozen! It must be designed by an idiot.- The fridge is noisey and makes really weird sounds.- There is no separate temperture setting for the freezer.- There is no light in the freezer.- The plastic drawers are not on a track, so you could easily pull it too far and have a drawer of fruits or vegetables fall out of the fridge.- The ice tray is built into a shelf in the fridge and could not be replaced with an ice tray that makes proper sized ice cubes.- The fridge often generates an odd suction or back-pressure, so opening the door requires a lot of effort to open it sometimes to the point it will rock the fridge and the contents inside.- This is not a European appliance which I was led to believe. My model was made in Turkey.- There is only three height adjustments for the two shelves in the door, the middle one is useless (creates very little room for the lower shelf), so essentially you have no choice on positioning the shelves in the door.I would recommend any name brand fridge over Blomberg, even the popular American brands are much better built and designed for much less. I have wasted a lot of fresh food from using this fridge and will continue to do so simply because of its poor design and refrigeration. I looked up the reviews on Blomberg fridges on Consumer Reports and not surprisingly it came in last over the other brands and I experienced all of the problems that they mentioned. Read more ›

Terrible! The back of the refrigerator gets covered in ice and then is supposed to melt and the water goes into the drain. The problem is, everything in my frig is soaked. I had a cardboard carton of eggs and the carton looks like it was soaked in water and fell apart. I have read the manual, called them and this is all part of the normal "defrost" cycle. Things in the back get cold and wet, things in the front never get cold and still get wet. It's the worst designed refrigerator. They should recall every one of these until they fix these issues. If KitchenAide or GE gets smart, they would design a frig this size. That is the ONLY reason people are buying these. They are stainless and because of the size. There is virtually no competition in this market.

Purchased the floor model which I was told had a slight dent on the side only cosmetic in nature. Got delivered the delivery guy didn't even bother taking it off the truck as the "cosmetic damage" was a totally smashed corner definitely been dropped off a loading bay.Ordered a second fridge stored it in a secure storage area until we needed to install it, it was packed in a shipping box and was not moved from the time of delivery until the our contractor opened it. He was shocked to see that they had not put any interior packaging in to prevent the shelves from shifting well guess what shelves are all broken and broken glass is everywhere. Furthermore, the inside of the fridge is damaged not sure if it is from the poor packaging or the breaking glass. Bloomberg offers to replace the shelves and not the fridge because we didn't unpack the fridge within 7 days! I think it is absolute outrageous that I should have had the delivery guy wait while I unpacked all my appliances if one is getting 5+ appliances this would take forever but if you order anything from Bloomberg best to do this.I am still hopeful that the store I purchased the appliance through will do the right thing and replace the fridge.
