We were waiting to buy a counter depth refrigerator for years.

8. I thought about that, but the final kitchen design did not allow it.

It's a good idea though if you can work it in and need all that extra storage. But like I said, we lost more food than we should have with a deep refrigerator, and we are very happy so far with the new one.

I did get one of those food storage gadgets that suck air out of the bags for freezer storage, for Xmas. We will be getting a separate freezer soon and we'll see how that works. Years ago we had one in a different home and loved it. I haven't decided where to put it yet, but I am looking for unused wall space to tuck it in.
