How big are KitchenAid refrigerators?

Gaps KitchenAid usually asks for: about ½ in each side and ½ in above, plus 1 in behind. Check the exact model: some ask for more.

Example: the KitchenAid KRFF330SPS is a 30-inch-class french door, but needs an opening at least 31⅛ in wide.

How KitchenAid refrigerators compare

ExactFit has reviewed 57 KitchenAid refrigerators against the manufacturer's own dimension guides, installation instructions and spec sheets. Within one brand the measurements still vary by exact model: two KitchenAid refrigerators sold in the same nominal size can need different openings, different side and rear gaps, and different room for the doors to open. Use the figures below to see how wide that spread is, then check the exact model you are considering.

What the verified measurements show

The opening width they need ranges from 22 1/16 in for the KitchenAid KBBX102MPA to 48 in for the KitchenAid KBSN748TPA, with half needing 36 in or less. The cabinet-only depth runs from 21 7/16 in (KitchenAid KBBX102MPA) to 29 7/8 in (KitchenAid KRMF436SPS). The depth with the doors closed, handles included runs from 21 7/16 in (KitchenAid KBBX102MPA) to 37 7/16 in (KitchenAid KRMF436SPS). The height including the hinges runs from 67 in (KitchenAid KRBL130SPS) to 83 1/4 in (KitchenAid KBSN748SPS). With a door open at 90 degrees, 57 of these models have a verified depth; the typical one needs 45 7/8 in from the back wall, and the deepest, the KitchenAid KRBR133SPS, needs 62 in. 56 models have a verified hinge-side wall clearance for the door to open 90 degrees: from 2 in to 4 1/2 in, typically 2 3/4 in.
