I noticed that, too - very few reviews out there. Did you try searching gardenweb, or what's left of it? There are also people here who have them and have occasionally commented - very positively - in Ideabooks about their kitchens - I don't recall which brands, however.

Friends have the Marvel one, and they are NOT impressed. Noisy, and the drawers don't shut tight like a normal fridge door does.....which is probably why it's so noisy, assuming the compressor has to keep running constantly! They've only had it installed a few months, although I suspect they bought it a year or two ago which is why they aren't going after the warranty.

We're interested in the Sub-Zero wider ones with two drawers, and the Fisher Paykel single drawer 36" wide 24" deep one. Too bad one can't rent them for a while to try out. True look like they have some good versions, but we're in Canada and I suspect they're not available here yet, annoyingly. They all seem stupid expensive per cubic foot vs a standard refrigerator.

It's such obviously sensible practical technology, you'd think all the domestic manufacturers would be churning them out by the dozen. I wish! If you're in Canada, Costco.ca has the Haier one, and Costco have great warranties. http://www.costco.ca/Haier-5.4-cu.ft.-Stainless-Steel-Built-in-Dual-Drawer-Refrigerator.product.100002984.html

They are a 1% market mainly because tbey are stupid expensive and offer a poor cost to value ratio. They do solve some design problems created by ditching upper cabinets entirely, but if you want that look, you have to pay the costs to be that beautiful.

@ GreenDesigns. ok, but, so.....what? I disagree about the cost:value, as they are far more efficient, just like kitchen cabinet drawers are more $ but way more functional (get more stuff in which is more accessible) than a cupboard with doors and a shelf.

You haven't actually used fridge drawers as a refrigerator, have you? They do not add more functionality to cold storage. Adjustable shelves in a full size french door fridge are far more efficient in storage as well as capacity. Drawers both limit your stored object's height and force you to pile things on top of each other to fit them in. (Which is why you also need a separate freezer with a french door.) Just try to fit in a sheet cake or pitcher of lemonade. It's MEH for beverages that you don't access a lot, but for everday use for produce, or pickles and ketchup, it really sucks for usage as a standard cold storage unit.

I'm disappointed to hear the pros opinion on refrigerator drawers because I just bought the Frigidaire product and am waiting to get it installed. In theory it's going to be a good solution for our old house that has a small galley kitchen with space for only a very small refrigerator. Fingers crossed it will functionally be a good solution too. Anyhow, I have a question re pulls. What size pulls do you think I should go for, as these drawers are 24" wide interior (prolly about 26" externally). I assume they won't be heavy enough to warrant appliance pulls, right? Thank you.

We used a 4" cup pull that matched the rest of the drawer pulls in our kitchen. We didn't go bigger on the fridge drawers

Again, thank you, Erin. You've been so helpful! Now if only you could help me pick a backsplash.

Ha ha! No you don't...it took me a year to decide on a backsplash! :)

Since Frigidaire seems to not make a refrigerator drawer, I'm not sure what you have in order to look at the specs. The specs rule though, and generally, unless you have one of the higher priced fully integrated built in models, the toe kick area must remain open for ventilation. Unfortunately, you chose a flush toe kick, which only accentuates the issue. If you had done the standard recessed toe kick, the rest of it could be painted black so as to recede.

Thanks, Sophie. This is something that would never have occurred to me until it's too late -- case in point. The recessed toe kick would have looked so much better. However, now that we have this unit and see what the results are, do you have any suggestions on how to make the gap look more integrated? We ended up getting a KitchenAid product (KUDR204EPA).
