My GE fridge has worked on a 458 MSW for the last 19 years. I don't know if you have a picked a fridge yet but the Samsung units are reported to run well on the MSW unit as well. There are things that won't well but you can always run your genny if necessary. Your fridge should work just fine. Check with the manufacturer to see if their unit will run on a MSW. Just tell them you plan to use it in a solar powered home to avoid the RV confusion.
Solar home systems generally use pure sine inverters. The reason for this is how most of them work. Many MSW inverters create the “negative” 120 v by inserting 120 V positive on the neutral line. This is much easier to do than generating the true negative voltage on the hot line. The problem with this is the required NG (neutral-ground) bond in NEC. A panel NG bond would immediately fry a MSW inverter. So in short telling the appliance manufacturer you have a solar house would communicate that you have a pure sine inverter. That is if they even understand the question.
