The T18IF905SP is the narrowest freezer half of Thermador’s Freedom Collection column pairing, built to sit beside a matching all-refrigerator column at 84 inches tall by roughly 18 inches wide, with an 8.6 cu ft gross capacity and a 25-inch-deep cutout. It uses the same Softclose flat Freedom Hinge as the rest of the line, which lets a full-height custom panel hang flush with surrounding cabinetry, but also means door sag or a slightly out-of-level cabinet shows up quickly as a seal or alignment complaint.
Because the freezer section carries its own compressor and evaporator independent of any paired refrigerator column, most complaints are self-contained: an underperforming or jammed ice maker in the 6 lb bin, a SuperFreeze cycle that will not disengage, or slow ice production (Thermador documents roughly 3.1 lb per 24 hours as normal for this unit). Persistent warm-running signs point toward the sealed system or door gasket rather than shared refrigeration hardware.
