Door dings with french door fridge next to wall ovens?
Comments (4)I think it depends on the handles and how wide the fridge door opens. We had the same concern, as the kitchen layout called for them to be separated by just a bit less than two inches. Lucky for us, we were considering the GE Profile double ovens and GE Profile French Door, counter-depth w/double drawer freezer. The KD looked and measured ahead of time and said the curved oven handles would allow the french door to open cleanly all the way without a problem. At least on this one thing he was right....See MoreFridge for tight spot next to wall- single door or french doors?
Comments (31)Are you still working on this? I have questions about more than the fridge. This is an awkward layout and there is enough space there that I think you must have better options. Have you looked at moving the dining room entry to the right? Shifting an opening is not a huge ordeal, even if that is a load bearing wall (not sure if it is but someone mentioned the possibility in an earlier post). I'll try to post something mocked up best my crude skills allow here. As I have it, I think that would be a 36" fridge and there is a pinch point. I'm not sure of the depth there, but with a counter depth, an 18" DW or some other tweaks with proper measurements, I think you could improve the function of the space. On the dining room side, any crown would remain or be replaced above the opening and a good contractor should be able to adjust the baseboards. Keep working the plan until you get the kinks out. I lived with two horrible kitchens (we're talking 2 burners and they aren't flat or heat that well, dying ovens, DW tiled in and praying it wouldn't die -- even though it was so loud I hated to run it) for ten years between the two of them until I was able to do my kitchen. I learned a lot along the way and had time to explore outside the box ideas, come back and go off in different directions. All that exploration really paid off in the end, and I plan to use it long enough to make up for any delays. Anyway, here's one rough idea in case you hadn't though of it....See MoreISO Best Stove Fridge combo - Dual Oven Gas Range + French Door Fridge
Comments (1)Hi, I recently purchased appliances and in the course of my search, I was told by my trusted appliance repair person to stay away from Samsung. His experience was that it takes FOREVER to get parts for a Samsung. He didn't comment on the quality of Samsung, just that they are problematic when they need fixing. I have a friend who has a Samsung refrig and within 2 years, a new part was needed and it took two months to get the part. Ouch. I went with JennAir and have been very pleased. My second choice was GE but they did not have a side by side refrig with no water dispenser so that ruled them out. You can't assume the same brand will have the same handles. The same line within a brand e.g. GE Profile, will likely have the same handles unless handle variety is an option within the line. It is likely that the finish will be the same across brands for the same issue year, but not guaranteed, I worked with an appliance retailer. That was so helpful as the salesperson really knew his stuff and helped me clear the confusion. AND, they price match. If there is an appliance only store in your area, check it out. Good luck, looking for appliances made my head spin!...See MoreCan you put a standard-depth fridge next to a corner pantry?
Comments (9)https://blog.abt.com/achieve-look-counter-depth-fridge/ Note that the option above has some limitations; cannot be done on an exterior wall or a load-bearing wall. If your oven is electric, you could switch the fridge to the currently shown oven/ micro location. Keep in mind that the oven and micro don't need to be within the "work triangle"...the fridge does. In either case, be sure to allow sufficient "air flow space" (see your appliance manual) around the fridge. Also - plan to install the electric outlet and water supply line box in the adjacent base cabinet. Proper planning & measuring is paramount. Good luck....See MoreJAN MOYER
