Bosch Series 6 American Side-by-Side Fridge Freezer with Ice & Water Dispenser
A 562 litre side by side fridge freezer with total No Frost, a plumbed ice and water dispenser, and 42 dB(A) running noise for open-plan rooms.
American side by side layout means a tall fridge and a tall freezer standing shoulder to shoulder: 371 litres for fresh food, 191 litres frozen, 562 litres in total. Finished in black gloss with matching black side panels, the KAD93ABEP is freestanding, so it is designed to be seen rather than hidden behind a cabinet door.
The dispenser is the part you use daily. Filtered water and automatic ice arrive through an illuminated dispenser in the door, fed by a plumbed supply and an internal filter, so nobody has to refill a tank. Behind it, Total No Frost keeps both compartments free of ice build-up, which means no defrosting and no chipping a freezer drawer loose.
Ideal For
562 litres split 371 fresh to 191 frozen suits a family that shops weekly. Five glass shelves, two MultiBox drawers on rails and three door compartments keep the fridge side organised.
At 42 dB(A) it runs quietly enough for a kitchen that doubles as a living space, where the fridge is never more than a few metres from where people sit.
Automatic ice on tap and filtered water from the door change how you host. Super Cool and Super Freeze drop the temperature for a big shop and switch themselves off again.
Key Features
371 litres of fridge and 191 litres of freezer stand side by side at full height, so neither compartment is the one you have to kneel down for.
Both the fridge and the freezer are frost free, so ice never builds up on the walls or the drawers and defrosting stops being a job on the list.
An illuminated dispenser in the door delivers filtered water and automatic ice cubes from a plumbed supply, with an internal filter doing the work out of sight.
Noise class D. Quiet enough that a side by side of this size does not announce itself in an open-plan kitchen every time the compressor starts.
The freezer takes up to 12 kg of fresh food per 24 hours, and Super Freeze pre-chills for a big load then deactivates automatically once it is done.
MultiAirflow circulates cold air through the cabinet, and an in-door LCD shows both the fridge and freezer temperatures without opening anything.
What 562 litres actually holds
Side by side is about access as much as volume. Instead of bending to a bottom freezer, you get two full height columns: 371 litres of fridge with five safety glass shelves, three removable door compartments and two MultiBox drawers running on rails, and 191 litres of freezer across two drawers and three door trays. For a household that does one large weekly shop, that split usually lands better than a fridge-heavy layout.
Plumbing in the ice maker
The dispenser needs a mains water connection, and a connection hose is supplied in the box. That is a job worth planning before the appliance is in position rather than after: it is freestanding, 90.8 cm wide and 113.2 kg, so it is not something you shuffle out again easily. Once connected, the automatic ice maker and internal filter run without refilling, and the dispenser is illuminated for late-night glasses of water.
Energy, noise and everyday running
The label reads E, with an annual consumption figure of 323 kWh. That is the honest cost of a 562 litre appliance with a dispenser and no defrosting, and worth weighing before you commit. In return you get a cabinet that stays free of ice, MultiAirflow keeping temperatures even, and 42 dB(A) of running noise in noise class D. Super Cool and Super Freeze handle a big shop and switch off by themselves, while the SN-T climate class covers a cold utility room as well as a warm kitchen.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | Bosch Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly family shop | 562 L total capacity | 371 litres fresh and 191 litres frozen, so a full trolley goes away in one pass. |
| No time for defrosting | Total No Frost | Neither compartment ices up, so freezer drawers keep sliding and defrosting never appears on the weekend list. |
| Drinks and ice | Plumbed dispenser with ice maker | Filtered water and automatic ice come from the door, with no jug to refill or trays to fill. |
| Open-plan kitchen noise | 42 dB(A), noise class D | The compressor stays discreet in a room where people are cooking, eating and sitting together. |
| Batch freezing | 12 kg per 24 hours | Super Freeze pre-chills before a big load goes in and switches itself off afterwards. |
| Keeping food even | MultiAirflow system | Cold air is circulated through the cabinet, so temperatures hold steady from top shelf to bottom. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- 562 litres in total, 371 fridge and 191 freezer
- Total No Frost in both compartments, no defrosting
- Illuminated ice and water dispenser with internal filter
- 42 dB(A) running noise, noise class D
- Five safety glass shelves and two MultiBox drawers on rails
- Super Cool and Super Freeze deactivate automatically
- In-door LCD shows both fridge and freezer temperatures
Considerations
- The ice and water dispenser needs a plumbed mains connection, so a water supply has to reach the appliance position before it can be used.
- The energy label is E, with 323 kWh a year, which is the running cost of a 562 litre cabinet with a dispenser.
- At 90.8 cm wide, 178.7 cm tall and 113.2 kg, it is freestanding only and needs a wide gap and a clear route in.
