IN-STOCK NOWWhat Is a Counter Depth Refrigerator?
Counter, depth refrigerators are designed to align with your kitchen counters seamlessly. Most countertops are 25 inches deep. All cabinets have an average depth of 24 to 24 1/2 ". Counter depth refrigerators are designed with a maximum depth of 27 inches so they can be seamlessly installed with the rest of your cabinetry. Comparatively, standard refrigerators protrude 6 inches from your counters and cost you half a foot of walking space. As a result, counter depth refrigerators can make a big difference in the workflow of small kitchens and galley designs.
Counter Depth vs. Standard Refrigerators – What's the Difference?
As the name suggests, the main difference between a counter depth and a standard refrigerator is how deep the appliances are. Standard refrigerators are 30 to 36 inches deep, while counter depth refrigerators are a mere 23 to 27 inches deep. As a result, the latter gives a more seamless look to your kitchen. While most homeowners choose a counter depth style refrigerator for aesthetic reasons, some kitchens may require this type of fridge due to narrow walkways.
Standard refrigerators are less expensive and are available in more colors than counter depth units. However, the added cost is well worth the upscale and custom look that counter depth refrigerators provide.

✅ Better kitchen flow: Unlike standard refrigerators, counter depth appliances don't block walkways, creating a better kitchen flow, especially in small spaces.
