Fortunately it will only require an allen wrench to install the handles when you receive them. Sure does protrude a lot into the kitchen.

I just got a similar fridge from cafe and that is actually what i first noticed as well! When the compressor kicks on, it is pretty loud. I will be installing it into a box, so expecting it to be less noticeable. As for the handles, mine shipped without them mounted but wasn't a big deal to install.

Also, the matching stove (matte black) is now discontinued, which I've been waiting a year for delivery..... Be cautious when ordering with all these supply chain issues.

It doesn’t actually stick out far. It’s pulled out as I was trying to see if a back panel was loose. The cabinets are built to fit the refrigerator perfectly. Handles are an easy fix. The compressor not so much. The tech told us it could be 3-4 weeks. He said they have been having lots of calls.

We have the matching dishwasher, stove, and vent hood. We got those quickly (maybe 2-6 weeks). The refrigerator took just over a year to get.
