After 10 years our fridge/freezer has died and we now find that that particular model and size is no longer made! Looking for 1300 h x 570d x 540w. I have searched the internet (ebay etc) but no joy. Can anyone advise where I can find something similar please. Don't mind 3 way. Thank you. Suzanne

Hi Suzanne....Evakool 146 litre compressor fridge is 1095mm x 590mm x 585mm. If there is any tolerance in your measurements,that may be suitable? Good luck with your search.Cheers

You will be paying more to get a fridge to fit the dimensions or a much smaller fridge, have a look at the (pricey) Isotherm Cruise Inox 1355h x 545w x 550d at dcfridge.com.au.

Bought mine from DC fridge couldn't deal with a nicer person.
Found them to be the cheapest and had it delivered to my door.

Fitted it myself CR219, removed feet and back rollers which makes
the opening size needed 35mm smaller, not sure if the 195 has the
same on bottom.

I used some wood type flooring strips to fill gaps . Wouldnt know . New fridge is actually larger . Deeper in our case . 55mm shorter .

Thanks for the advice. It is very expensive I agree.

Thanks for the info. I think we may have found one on this site. Thanks again.

Thanks for the tip. We are going to go bigger rather than smaller as we need good sized vegetable storage. Thanks again.

Hi here's some more ....... www.solazone.com.au/solar-power/off-grid-solar-power/dc-refrigerators/

Thank you for your advice. Unfortunately the dimensions didn't suit from that website but the Vitrifrigo I have found could still work out well. Thanks

Is that the cutout size or the overall size of the fridge? If you can supply the make and model number of the fridge it will assist us to assist you

Hi there

I mistakenly keyed in the wrong measurements. The exact space that the fridge can fit into without any alterations are:

1030 height x 540 width x 570 depth.

We could go slightly deeps but it would stick out slightly. We could possilby go slightly wider if we take of a bit of the wood framing. As for the height we would have to cut out the shelf above and the paneling to move the microwave up more and we would have to alter the cupboard above also. I have attached a photo.

That'd be an easy mod if you could relocate the microwave, though you don't want that too high for safe use .... if worst comes to worse you could use the microwave on the benchtop , keeping it portable ( l know , not very convenient, but it'd be better than nothing )
It'd certainly open up you options fridge wise
