However, if you have a gap, you can put a neat pullout between them. Our all-freezer is on the same wall as our steam oven & convection oven stack, but there wasn't enough room to go with wider units available at the time. So, we have a pullout with a pegboard that I'm currently using to store oven racks & accessories.

Comments (10)... in any case, once you start shaving off space down to the thickness of a couple fingers, what really counts is air circulation, heat and humidity in the air (A/C on all the time or not), and where the heat pipes are underneath the metal cladding of Your Chosen fridge. To get fresh air to flow around it and to give the air an exit path too, it would make sense to put a mini fan (the size of what you see inside a PC) somewhere under the cabinets, without any kickplate either. The manufacturers won't help you because they don't want to discuss how close is just barely close enough and not too much -- and they wouldn't want to start saying that arid climate dwellers have a bit more freedom to squeeze the fridge and humid climate dwellers have to leave more space... If you build the fridge into an airtight plastic bag, it will fail as a fridge because its heat will be retained in the bag surrounding it. Same thing for a smaller and smaller space, you just end up heating the material surrounding it. I know the small LG has a lot of its heat pipes in the front sides near the door gasket, adn this is mentioned in its online PDF. Someone posted here how it still manages to work even after he built it into a tight space and had it practically "plug" the space. It's a 24" wide fridge.

Comments (40)Thank you Colleen (AKA. ANGEL IN DISGUISE)!!! Thank you for all the photos and the incredibly helpful info!! On Mother's Day of all days, when you should be relaxing and basking in the servanthood of your four children, you're sitting there typing away, helping a stranger out. Cpartist, and everyone else too, seriously you all have restored my faith in humanity : ). Sorry to be so dramatic but I truly appreciate you guys. Colleen, is the reason you didn't want the flush install of your ovens so that that your ovens doors would be able open all the way? Is there any other reason NOT to do a flush install? My wall is going to just out way more than yours so unfortunately can't do the right swing, and I'm seeing now that the left swing would not be a good idea either. How would you feel about a traditional pull-down double oven in your current oven location????? The counter behind my ovens will be a little over 4 ft away, so there should be some wiggle room to pull down the door and maneuver to the landing space? Also thank for the feedback on the Karbon! I agree, the aesthetics are pretty unique. Our kitchen will lean toward the modern side so it would fit in perfectly. I will have a tapmaster as well so hoping it will work well for my prep sink. Hope you're enjoying your tapmaster today! What a great Mother's day gift : ). Kim Ladin, I'm going to think seriously about that tall cabinet to make the right swing work. It would mean decreasing the cabinet length in the undercounter fridge run or decreasing the double pantry. I hope you find a good solution to your dilemma as well!...See MoreHow much filler space do I need for cabinets between walls - conestoga
Comments (8)You can not do an inset design of this complexity without an experienced kitchen designer on board, designing this for you. There will be thousands of dollars in mistakes, just due to you not knowing how and what to measure. You don’t know what you don’t know. Inset is not putting together a prefab doghouse. It’s building a space shuttle. 1/16” matter. Having a skilled installer also matters. It does no good to add extended stiles if someone has no clue how to scribe them to make them work. This is high level cabinet installation. Not throwing apartment level boxes on a wall with a couple of screws. You have to design to the level of skill of the installer. Or there’s also thousands in errors that happen. A DIY job is designed differently than one for a skilled and experienced cabinet installer. The installer won’t need to know to do some things....See Moregizmonike
