“Do the doors open flush with the sides, or will it be wider with doors open 90 degrees? I have limited width, so 35 3/4 inches is the max width. I've noticed that some refrigerators need more width than that for doors to open -- mine is in a corner against the wall, so no additional space available.”

It will be about 4-5 inches wider, which includes the handle depth.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello Poi rot, When the door is open 90 degrees, there is going to be some overlap on the sides so the doors are not flush with the sides. In fact, not even the bottom freezer is flush with the sides and if you go back and look at the pictures of the unit open, especially with the bottom freezer door open, the amount it overlaps by should give you an idea of how much the refrigerator doors will overlap by...IFV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.With the doors open 90 degrees, the width is closer to 40 inches. You will want to take a look and measure for yourself if this is a factor.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If the refrigerator will protrude from (extend beyond) both side walls by at least 3 inches, then there will be no problem opening the doors. I am referring to the depth of the fridge placement. I also only had less than 36" of width to place the fridge and it fits with about 2mm per side to spare. Tight.
