"Needs" is the opening width × height: the refrigerator plus the side and top clearance its maker asks for, or the maker's cutout size. Space in front is checked against each model's depth with a door open 90°, plus the rear clearance. "Walls" checks the width with the doors open 90°, handles included. Door positions ignore handles.

Height to the top of the hinge. Depth with doors and handles. Capacity split into fresh food and freezer where the maker lists both; some models add a convertible drawer.

What size opening does a 33-inch refrigerator need?

Add the maker's side and top clearance to the refrigerator's width and height. For these models that comes to 33" to 33 3/4" wide and 66 7/8" to 70 7/8" tall.

Will a 33-inch refrigerator fit a 33-inch opening?

6 of the 9 models here fit an opening of exactly 33 inches with their maker's side clearance. Not the others: the Whirlpool WRT311FZDW needs 33 3/4", the GE GTE21GTHWW needs 33 1/8", the Whirlpool WRFF5333PV needs 33 5/8". Measure the opening at its narrowest point, since walls and cabinet sides are rarely perfectly straight.

The first column is the depth with a door open 90° plus the rear clearance: the space you need between the wall behind the refrigerator and an island or opposite wall. The second matters when the refrigerator sits between walls or tall cabinets; GE says French door and side-by-side models need less room to open beside a wall.

33-inch refrigerator styles and capacity

  • French door: 3 models, 18.6 to 24.7 cu ft, 69 7/8" to 70 1/8" tall and 31" to 37 1/2" deep.
  • Side-by-side: 1 model, 23 cu ft, 69 7/8" tall and 34 3/4" deep.
  • Bottom freezer: 2 models, 24.8 to 25.5 cu ft, 69 7/8" tall and 35" to 37 1/2" deep.
  • Top freezer: 3 models, 20.5 to 21.9 cu ft, 66 1/4" to 66 3/4" tall and 32 7/8" to 34 1/2" deep.

Counter-depth 33-inch refrigerators

The counter-depth models here have a case 24 1/8" deep against 28 1/8" to 30 5/8" for standard depth, and hold 18.6 cu ft against 20.5 to 25.5 cu ft. Samsung puts counter-depth models at 24 to 25 inches deep without doors and handles.
