Free, confirm-first email when the price drops on Summit Appiance 18" Wide Built-In Beverage Center (best partner price today: $1,534.77).
This Summit Appliance beverage cooler measures 17.5 inches wide, 34 inches high, and 23.5 inches deep, making it a compact option for spaces where floor area is limited. The narrow width allows placement in tight spots like home bars, offices, or entertainment areas while still providing dedicated beverage storage. The unit is designed specifically for cooling drinks rather than general refrigeration. Its dimensions make it suitable for undercounter installation or freestanding use in smaller rooms. The cooler provides a focused solution for keeping beverages at serving temperature without taking up the space of a full-size refrigerator.

Brand Background
Summit Appliance, a division of Felix Storch, Inc., has operated out of the Bronx, New York since 1969, carving out a distinctive niche in specialty refrigeration that sets it apart from mainstream appliance manufacturers. The company's catalog on Fridge.com encompasses 907 active products, reflecting an unusually broad range of specialized cooling solutions. Rather than competing in the standard kitchen refrigerator market, Summit focuses heavily on commercial and specialty categories—the brand offers 161 upright freezers, 153 kegerators, 153 beverage centers, and 78 built-in units, alongside 161 french-door models. This distribution reveals a manufacturer deeply invested in foodservice, hospitality, and medical applications rather than typical residential needs. ADA-compliant models like the CT661WADA compact freezer demonstrate Summit's commitment to accessibility requirements, while units like the SBC15NKCSS kegerator highlight their strength in beverage dispensing equipment. With products carrying an average rating of 3.7 out of 5, Summit Appliance occupies the mainstream tier but serves markets that premium residential brands often overlook, making it a go-to source for undercounter installations, laboratory storage, and commercial beverage applications where specialized dimensions and compliance certifications matter most.
