In a kitchen with standard 24-inch-deep cabinets and 25-inch countertops, a bulky 35-something-inch refrigerator protrudes into the space. But with a counter-depth model—24 to 29 inches (including doors, handles, and all)—your refrigerator is as close to flush as possible if you’re not going for the pricer built-in models. (Counter-depth fridges are thousands of dollars less than built-in styles.) Here are our 10 favorite large (36-inch-wide) counter-depth refrigerators starting with the deepest to the most shallow 24-inch fridge.
