My concern is that it might stick out too far making it difficult to use with a refrigerator. I'd like my refrigerator as flush as possible. Views?

In my experience, it is quite a bit thicker than a fridge plug that has a 90 degree bend in it. If you look at the picture, you can see that the entire device is 2.5-3 times thicker than the width of a plug.

It works very well but is thick. This device is fairly big but to do its job it has to be. I like it. Good quality. I would buy it again.

I couldn't use it behind my frig, used it elsewhere and bought a different one that is not on thick.

I use it in the garage with our freezer and we set it on top of the freezer. I purchased this to provide an audible warning, but that doesn't work. Whenever we have lightening during a storm it blows the circuit. The freezer has already gone off twice and neither time did the warning sound.

This is the narrowest surge protector that I could find. The plug does not stick out because you plug it into the side of the unit. The cord from the refrigerator sits parallel to your wall. Your refrigerator should not stick out any more than normal.

robert, as you probably know; you do not want your refrigerator flush against the wall, as you want air flow in the rear of your refrigerator. the unit is almost 2" deep and the back of my frig is 4" from the wall, for air circulation. have a merry christmas and a prosperous new year! [sorry......i meant to answer a similar question to another person and answered yours instead. :) i also sent her this same answer. hope your unit is working fine.]

It is not good to put your refrigerator or freezer flush against a wall. They need air flow.

The surge protector does extend a little from the wall (i.e., it does not fit flat). I can't easily get to it to measure its depth for you, but my refrigerator is 3" from the wall to accommodate the surge protector and allow a little air flow around it. Hope this helps. S.C.

I absolutely intend to use in fridge. We now have narrow side by side and I think it would help a great deal, especially between the drawer space.

If you purchased a small one but I think it would still take up too mucph shelf space for you to fit other items in your refrigerator. I purchased the large 18 in. And it is grat in my linen closet in the bathroom.

It gets pretty viscous at low temperatures, there should be no issue with it making a mess, and it would lubricate well. I'm not sure exactly how it would handle all the ambient smells from a fridge, it might be something that would need wiped off an reapplied occasionally.

It doesn't stick out ver far, maybe an inch or so. My fridge isn't flat against the wall anywayso I didn't have to reposition it at all.

the liner is a ribbed product...going length wise...might not be as easy to clean in the refrigerator, but to remove it and wash it in the sink would be much easier than removing frig shelves...

Ours are perfectly flush so there may be an issue with your item. This item has worked well for us.

Hi I wouldn't do it, there are special filter kits for that purpose, if your refrigerator is on the same side as the K. sink I guess it would work with a T adapter conection.but for a refrigerator alone it would be too bulky to install behind. I hope that helped you decide

It will be flush up against the cabinet. However, depending on the depth of your cabinet it may hang out from the cabinet about an inch or so as it does with mine. Which becomes hardly concernable after you get have it for a couple weeks. Make sure you buy the correct mountable kit.

As it is double wall I would suggest only using the dishwasher on the "cooler" cycles. I would imagine that the pressure build on the "sanitize" cycle could do some bad things...

I wouldn't recommend it. You would have to remove the handle on what side you wanted to set on the ground. The door is flush with the side so you would have to elevate it or the door would scrape on the ground. You would loose a lot of space as there is no shelving system and everything would poor out when you opened it. You would also block vents if you set it up that way and probably overheat the compressor. So in short no it is meant to be used as shown in the picture, might need to look for a different product to use it like a traditional fridge.

Personally I would not use it for this purpose. I would be afraid over time with the dampness and humidity in a refrigerator along with the constant use and spills it would get nasty with crumbs and such along the edges. Also getting it perfect without bubbles on every shelf to look nice would be a pain. Just my opinion though : )

Probably not, because it is not made for your brand. Go on youtube and view the video that shows this one being installed. It has a good view of the receptacle for which it is designed (in the top right hand of the inside of the refrigerator) and it is unique to this product. If yours does not have the same set-up, I am pretty sure it will not fit.

I don't see why it couldn't be used in a refrigerator as long as you have solid (versus wire) shelves to place it on. The feet might be unsteady on a wire shelf.

A filled refrigerator is probably heavier than anything I have moved with the pads. However, I have used them to move a large, full, solid oak china hutch across a wood floor, so you may have good results. As far as getting it onto the pads, I can only think to tip the fridge slightly and slide the pads under the raised corners, but that seems risky to me; you wouldn't want to end up with the fridge laying on its side, especially with someone underneath it!

My refrigerator wasn't dimpled, and I had to be very careful about drips, or putting the paint on smoothly as possible or it showed the unevenness. I'm going to assume that with a dimpled surface it may make application a bit more trickier so making the finish not look that good. This is my personal opinion..I would try it on the backside or lower part of the fridge that wouldn't show..
