Good points:: Love Bosch products - always found them to be extremely reliable and long lasting.
Bad points:: Wish the salad drawer was two small ones and not one large one - things tend to get a bit jumbled up.

Good points:: Good, standard integrated fridge. Too early to say about quality, but all seems good currently
Bad points:: Front door is not painted white. This is not a problem, but you do notice whenteh door is opened.
