We had to decide between SubZero and Perlick drawers. In the end, we picked Perlick. There were a little bit of growing pains. The initial factory settings resulted in frozen coils every few weeks. I guess, it depends a little bit on your climate. The service technician tweaked the settings and the drawers have now been working fine for over a year. So, I guess the problem is fixed. We like that they are more spacious than then SubZero drawers. And we like that there is no ice maker, which we didn't want (takes up way too much space in drawers). But we don't like that Perlick is a little noisier than SubZero. So, I think in hindsight, it's a bit of a wash. We probably would have been fine with SubZero as well. We do have a SubZero all-fridge column that goes with two sets of freezer drawers. That combination is amazing. So much nicer than traditional freezers.

Thank you so much, Do you mean a 24" undercounter fridge/freezer combo? We have looked at those also, particularly something like this: https://www.subzero-wolf.com/sub-zero/counter-refrigerator/24-inch-undercounter-refrigerator-freezer-ice-maker-panel-ready Doesn't have to be this brand, but this type of fridge?

We ran into a similar problem when selecting units for our coffee bar (located in our primary suite on the second floor of our house) and a unit for our bar area located in our kitchen. We played around with both drawers and under counter units and ultimately chose the SZ decorator series fridge for our coffee bar and the SZ fridge/freezer combo for our bar in our kitchen. Hubby is excited to finally have a place inside our house to store his ice cream pints which currently live in our garage freezer, lol! We opted not to go with drawers because as mentioned previously, they take a lot more space and we have a fairly small kitchen. Also, the under counter units (not drawers) seemed to allow for a bit more flexibility because in the SZ you can store wine bottles and other large items in the door and smaller items in the shelves/pull-out drawer. Speaking of pull-outs, we chose SZ because we HATED the fixed shelves in the other units (Perlick, ULine, etc.). Not great for aging in place in our forever home, that's for sure (both hubby and I are semi-retired). That said, the lead time for the SZ is like everything these days very long! We ordered our SZ coffee bar fridge on 5/14 and the earliest installation date is late October. We're not starting demo work until August so we're okay with the delay, but that might not work for everyone. If you opt for a SZ under counter fridge I strongly urge going with a certified installer to get the extra year of warranty as they seem to experience more issues than the regular SZ units. Also, when I asked a SZ rep why so many seemed to experience issues he said that you can't let dust/debris get into the machinery at the bottom of the unit.

That was accomplished by making the bottom drawer extremely shallow (as shown in the photo) so the vent louvers could be hidden behind the door panel. To keep capacity up, the refrigerator was made 30" wide. All other manufacturers' refrigerators are 24" wide and their bottom drawers are deeper. Most are refrigerator only. An exception: KitchenAid KUDF204KPA.
