Costco has Bosch 500 Series 26 cu. ft French door refrigerator on sale for $2199. Price shows as 500 off at $2499 but when you add it to cart, additional $300 is taken off from the total resulting in $2199 + Tax. I have been looking at the Bosch refrigerators for a while now and looks like Costco only recently started selling Bosch. Hope this helps someone.

"Model SHEM63W55N is designed to dry using the PureDry™condensation drying system. This is an energy-efficient, closed drying system that does not pull in outside air or use an exposed heating element. This process works by heating the dishes with hot water during the final rinse. The cooler stainless steel pulls moisture from the dishes. The inside of the unit will be wet at the end of the cycle, but the dishes should be dry. It's important to note that plastics don't retain heat as well as other dishware materials and don't dry as well. For more information about this process, please visit the following link: https://www.bosch-home.com/us/exp...ch/puredry. "

How do you find or get notified about a price error?
Someone just made a post here on SD and I got an alert for a fridge that I set
Oh gotcha. Yeah I'll do that when I pick a model. Maybe this one.
I got bosch because of its reputation. I might just have been unlucky with a defective unit, I'm about to contact bosch warranty, will find out about its customer service lol
Edit to add meanwhile my friend got their first bosch last year, a refrigerator, and have been very happy with it
LG has been knocking it out of the park lately. They did a big redesign of their fridges, ovens, and washer/dryers a couple of years back. We switched over to them and they've been solid performers ever since.

We took delivery just last week on this fridge from Lowes. If it helps, the door handles come off so installers added them to the fridge when they got the fridge into place.
Can anyone who owns a 500 or 800 series give their impression of the quality / fit & finish of their fridge? When I've looked at them in stores I get concerned that the plastic interior bins & shelves are flimsy and of lower quality than the other brands. Many thanks!
We have a Bosch 800 series dishwasher and love it so we bought this Bosch 500 series refrigerator. While the bins seem flimsier than our older Samsung I think they'll hold up just fine. One thing that's odd is the door shelves aren't too tall, so it feels like if you slam the doors too hard the items might fly out. Also the fridge attracts fingerprints like crazy. Other than that, so far so good.
I love LG for laundry and TVs but time to try another brand of refrigerator.
As others mentioned, the 800 is significantly taller than the 500. I had to trim the bottom of my cabinets about an inch for the 800 to fit.
For everyone else complaining about their builder grade Bosch, it's builder grade, you get what you paid for. Every manufacturer has different product tiers and this fridge is well above standard builder grade. That said, there are plastic bits on even the 800 that I wish were metal and very minor things on fit and finish, but at the end of the day these are really good standalone fridges. You won't find much better until you look at 3x+ the price for built-in fridges.
