Kitchen Appliance Decision Full Depth vs Counter Depth FD Refrigerator
Shopping for a new French Door Refrigerator? Probably the first decision you need to make is whether to go with a full depth or counter depth model. If large capacity is important to you, then choosing a full depth model can get you over 30 cu. ft. of storage space. These are mammoth refrigerators, and of course, there’s the rub. A Full Depth French Door Refrigerator can be up to 36″ deep. Considering that standard cabinets are 24″ deep, a full depth refrigerator can stick out over a foot. Also, with all that extra space, you’re going to find some bonus features available that you won’t see in counter depth models, such as slide out pantry drawers in your refrigerator.
French Door Counter Depth Refrigerators offer the benefit of a “near-flush” appearance. With 24″ deep cabinets (25″ deep countertops), these refrigerators will stick out only a “smidge”, some only a fraction of an inch not counting the handle. Another benefit of the shallow counter depth refrigerator is that many models are panel-ready. With matching cabinet panels, you can achieve a built-in look without the built-in price.
