This compact freezerless refrigerator offers 1.52 cubic feet of storage, making it ideal for hotel rooms, offices, or other spaces with limited counter room. The unit features two plastic shelves with flat bottoms and two door racks for organizing bottles and condiments. A compressor-based cooling system with adjustable thermostat maintains proper food storage temperatures. The reversible door provides installation flexibility, while the front lock with two keys offers security. An auto defrost system reduces maintenance needs. At just 17.62 inches wide, this space-saving design fits easily into tight spaces. The unit operates quietly and includes a standard 3-prong plug with a 6-foot cord. The clean interior finish improves visibility, and the absence of exposed coils makes cleaning simple. Leveling feet help accommodate slightly uneven surfaces. The refrigerator uses eco-friendly hydrocarbon-based refrigerant that meets current environmental regulations.

Brand Background
About Summit Appliance
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.
