Hi Insignia Customer, It's normal for the sides of your refrigerator to feel warm. This area is near the evaporator coils, which work to eliminate heat and keep the interior cool. To help lessen this warmth, please ensure your fridge has proper ventilation around it. We hope this explanation helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Carl | Insignia Support
