Product review (3 stars): save $, buy Frigidair and have the same problems
After 4 months with the fridge, its been a love hate relationship.  Love the looks, hate the ice maker.  in the 4 months, i've taken it apart 2 times to fix it.  luckily its something that hasn't required a service visit and hasn't costed me anything except my time and a few stranded moments without ice. i know, first world problems.

here is the kicker which explains my title. after feeling ripped off that my bosch microwave was some cheap junk made in china, that suspiciously looked like a Frigidaire, i couldn't help but notice that my Bosch french door refrigerator, looked similar to a Frigidaire as well, both in and out. I checked out the reviews of Frigidaire FGHB2844L on amazon, lo an behold, identical ratings, and identical complaints; the ice maker sucks.  I checked the reviews of the suspected Electrolux clone of this fridge and that has ice maker issues as well.  I don't know which company is responsible for the original design of the ice maker, but you would think they would have fixed this to avoid angering customers from 3 companies.

bottom line, you can save a little over $700 by getting the Frigidaire.  But be prepared to have the same issues.

------Update 03/31/2014
Its been a little over a year that we've owned this fridge.  After learning how to take apart the ice maker from another reviewer on amazon i've been able to fix my ice maker 3 times early on in ownership in January of 2013.  The last time was probably May of 2013, each time the same issue, a magnet on the ice bin sensor arm falling off and not resetting the ice maker cycle.  The last fix i think was for good since it hasn't happened since.

Last month the ice maker stopped again, and i thought that magnet fell out.  I opened it up and it was still in its correct place, so that wasn't the issue this time.  Scared that i would have to get a repair guy in and take days off from work i reluctantly called service.  The lady i spoke to suggested i changed the filter.  Even though i was able to dispense water, apparently an old clogged filter lowers the pressure enough to push open the ice maker water valve.

Then i realized remembering how expensive the filters were, i kept resetting the timer since the water tasted fine.  I changed the filter, and 1 day later it made its first cubes.  2 days later i got a full bin of ice again.

I learned a few things which might be helpful to others.
1. Change the filter.  I got about a year out of an original bosch filter that came with the fridge.  I don't know how others will fare.
2. I say others above because i tried out a filter from GE that had the same thread and connection pattern.  Its been working for a month so far and no problems, if you do try this one it is at your own risk.  GE MSWF Replacement Cartridge part #34-8710-7349-9.  I don't think it was any cheaper than an original filter purchased online, but if you are in a pinch and need to get one, i found these at the blue apron box store. Make sure to save the filter grip handle part from the old filter before discarding.  It won't be used on the alternate filter since the grip is built in, but if you want to go back to original bosch filters, you will need it.
3. Apparently the ice maker has a temperature sensor in it and will only make ice if the interior compartment is the correct temperature.  This makes sense but wasn't obvious when i put everything back together and was expecting the ice cycle to begin.  Having the fridge doors open and ice maker apart caused the temperatures to drop enough that the sensor wouldn't allow the ice maker to begin ice making.

So far its been ok, so i bumped up my rating from 2 to 3.  regardless, we shouldn't have to deal with issues like this.
