ZLINE Counter-Depth Refrigerator vs ZLINE Standard-Depth Refrigerator
Standard-Depth (RSM)
Standard-depth refrigerators typically extend beyond the counter line in the kitchen, providing a deeper profile and giving a more traditional look. This additional depth adds more internal space for foods and drinks, which is why standard-depth models are often favored by those who prioritize storage capacity but still want a visually appealing refrigerator.
Counter-Depth (RFM)
Unlike standard-depth, counter-depth refrigerators are designed to be flush with the cabinetry and countertops in your kitchen, similar to built-in refrigerators. Counter-depth models are often favored for their aesthetic appeal and ability to blend seamlessly with the cabinetry for that sleek appearance, despite a reduced internal capacity.
Since this blog is your go-to for all things standard-depth, we’re going to give counter-depth a little break! However, if you want to learn more, check out our recent blog post featuring ZLINE’s RFM for all the ins and outs on counter-depth!
