Donna McCrummen on Dec 06, 2011Oops, mistake. The width of the opening is 33" the width of the fridge is 33.5" - we have 1 5/8 to play with - so we need to lose a half inch of the lip. Same question I guess. HmmHelpful Reply

KMS Woodworks on Dec 06, 2011Is this a laminate counter over a particle board core? If so I would rough out the cut with a circular saw then do some clean up work with a laminate trimmer. The back corner would need to be finessed with a recip saw once the circular saw butts ups at the backsplash. The very back corner could be cleaned up with a RO sander.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on Dec 07, 2011This can be done Donna, I would use a router with a guide to assure the cut goes smooth. A plane can work, but the edge can become uneven quite quick. The last few inches where the router cannot reach a good quality fine tooth trim saw can finish that part. Happy Holidays!Helpful Reply

Bernice H on Dec 07, 2011We had a series of "stuff" happen a few years ago, this brought back those memories! A few thousand dollars later, we finally breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness for Dave Ramsey and his advice of having emergency money saved. Hang in there, this too shall pass!Helpful Reply

Donna McCrummen on Dec 07, 2011@Steve, I would take the easy route but this is the only stainless steel fridge that will even come close to fitting. They are so big these days. Thank you Woodbridge and KMS. I think I get what you're saying :-) just to be clear the opening for the fridge is boxed in vertically not up against a counter.Helpful Reply
