I am going to be remodeling my kitchen soon and one of the appliances
I was considering was a "counter depth" refrigerator to save some
space. I know the obvious disadvantage is the shelves are not as
deep as a conventional fridge, but I saw some on the showroom floor
and the differnece in shelf space was not that much. In particular 2
models caught my eye: Kitchen Aid and Whirlpool both make a 24.5 cu ft
counter depth fridge, almost equivelant to a 25 cu ft conventional
fridge. I was just wondering if anyone has a counter depth fridge and
what your opinions are. Thanks.


Most of the counter depth refrigerators that I remember selling were just as
deep as a conventional refrigerator but were redesigned so the the main box
of the refrig. was counter depth and then the door(s) were thicker so that
it still stuck out as far but gave the illusion of being basically as deep
as the counters. More storage was allocated to the doors.
