Counter-Depth Refrigerators

A counter-depth fridge sits flush with your cabinetry, creating a streamlined look and more floor space in your kitchen. It can make the room feel more spacious and aesthetically pleasing, and the shallow interior provides easier access to foods in the back of the fridge.

If you are choosing appliances for a small kitchen, you may want a compact refrigerator that is both counter-depth and narrow. A narrow counter-depth fridge can be perfect for a studio apartment, ADU, Airbnb or small office space. If you want something a little more modern, a stainless steel counter-depth refrigerator is a great choice. Or, you can never go wrong with a white counter-depth refrigerator, which can create a clean, timeless look.

You can also go big with a counter-depth refrigerator fit for large and luxurious kitchens. Wide counter-depth refrigerators provide ample space that is also accessible and easy to organize. Counter-depth French door refrigerators and side-by-side counter-depth fridges are both popular options if you want a wider appliance.

Before choosing your new refrigerator, thoroughly measure the space where you plan to put it. That means taking careful measurements of depth, width and height. Also, remember to allow space behind the appliance for ventilation and wiring.

Your new counter-depth refrigerator should include the features you will find most useful. You might benefit from an ice maker, an open-door alarm, gallon door storage or a built-in water purifier. If you choose a fridge with a water filter or a fridge with an ice maker, you will need replaceable water filters and a refrigerator water line kit, which can be found among refrigerator accessories.

If you are concerned about installing your new refrigerator on your own, a professional appliance delivery and installation team can handle it. They will get your counter-depth fridge in place, plugged in, hooked up to a water line and ready to go. It’s also a good idea to think about appliance protection, which can help keep your counter-depth refrigerator covered and working properly long after installation.
