Glass Door Refrigerators

A fridge is a common piece of electrical equipment in both the home and also commercial businesses such as bars, cafes and restaurants. They are available in a few different styles to suit the needs of the consumer. While free standing models tend to be one of the most common styles it is also possible to get an under cabinet refrigerator and these can be useful in a variety of situations.

The major advantage of using an under cabinet refrigerator is space saving. By storing the refrigerator under a counter below cabinets it places it in a convenient location, but keeps it out of the way which can free up space for other use. However under cabinet refrigerators tend to be more compact in size than free standing models and before installing one it can be common sense to check that it has adequate storage capacity to suit your needs.

There are a number of manufacturers that produce under cabinet refrigerator models with some of the well known brand names including Frigidaire, KitchenAid, Summit and General Electric. They can be found in a variety of locations with both in-store and internet retailers having them available for sale. Some of the places to look for them can include electrical stores such as Best Buy, home improvement stores such as Home Depot and internet retailers such as My Chef Store and Food Service Warehouse. Checking out these stores will provide information on compact refrigerators which can be used under cabinets in both the home and also commercial businesses.

The cost for an under cabinet refrigerator will typically depend on its intended use. Those that are suitable for home use tend to be the most affordable with prices for these starting around the $150 mark. An example of this is the Fridgidaire 3.3 cubic feet compact refrigerator which retails for around $160. This has a temperature range which can be set from 32 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit and is equipped with one full width and one half width shelf. It is a compact size and will easily slide below a counter or cabinets. The cost for larger capacity refrigerators for under cabinet use can rise to $500 and greater. The price will typically depend on the size of the fridge and brand name.

There are also a range of under cabinet refrigerators that are appropriate for commercial use. These are produced by a number of manufacturers with some of these including True Manufacturing and Trauslen. These are typically larger in size than home models and more expensive to purchase. An example of this is the Trauslen Under Counter Refrigerator Model UHT27-R. This is manufactured with a stainless steel exterior and anodized aluminum interior. It can be bought for a price of around $1,350 and features a front breathing refrigeration unit meaning it can easily be stored below a counter or cabinets.

If you have a smaller kitchen and are looking for ways to save space then a compact under cabinet refrigerator is an option to look at. There are a number of models on the market that are suitable for either residential or commercial use and this means finding a model to suit the space you have available should not be overly difficult.
