KitchenAid's counter-depth fridge with water on tap

What reviewers say

Questions and answers

Is $1,250 a good price for the KRFC136SPS?

Yes. At $1,250.00 at Appliance City as of November 6, 2026, it is at the low end of its recent range, and 6 stores list it new. Counter-depth French door fridges from major brands often run $1,800 and up.

Does it really sit flush with counters?

It is 29.375 inches deep, so it sits close to flush with standard 24-inch-deep counters plus a small gap for doors and handles. It is not fully built-in flush.

Does it have a water dispenser?

Yes, but it is internal. You open the left fridge door to reach the dispenser, so there is no dispenser cutout on the front. It needs a water line hookup.

How much food fits?

14.38 cu. ft. in the fridge and 5.62 cu. ft. in the freezer, 20 cu. ft. total. That is on the small side for a 36-inch fridge, so it suits couples and small families better than big households.

How much energy does it use?

It is Energy Star certified at 563 kWh per year, roughly $70 a year at average US electricity rates.

What comes in the box?

The refrigerator, factory-installed ice maker, water filter and the hardware for the reach-through handles. A water supply line is not included.
