Counter-depth
refrigerators are becoming increasingly common in homes everywhere. A
counter-depth fridge is a full-sized model which is designed to be
flush with your kitchen’s cabinetry once it is installed. These
refrigerators vary in capacities, styles, and depths – as do
kitchen cabinets – but most models are around 25” deep. This
style of refrigerator offers many benefits, such as:

• Style. The
  main reason people install counter-depth refrigerators into their
  kitchens is for the aesthetic value they provide. Because they are
  flush with your kitchen cabinets, they do not look bulky while
  protruding into your kitchen’s floor space. You can also add custom
  finishes to the front of some models to seamlessly match your
  refrigerator with the rest of your kitchen.
• Space. Another
  benefit of counter-depth refrigerators, especially in smaller
  kitchens, is the space that they save. The few inches of extra space
  that they provide can make a big difference in creating more room
  for traffic flow, furniture, or even artwork on a wall.
• Storage. To
  compensate for the lack of depth, these refrigerators are often
  wider than standard-depth models. This can allow for the storage of
  wide trays and other objects which may not be possible to store in
  standard refrigerators. The shorter depth also allows for easier
  access to your food, especially the items in the back.
