Another residential fridge question

[Mountain_Mama]

So as not to hijack another post, I have this question....

Would residential refrigerator not be too heavy in a slide?

They made the 5er, they should know.Facts are always better than personal opinions.

Our 2015 Montana 3711fl has the Samsung in the kitchen slide. My only question is why do they not have it so the ice maker will work? I can only assume the engineering team went to lunch when it came to hooking it up as it should be.:)

You can find the weights of the various RV fridges on the respective manufacturers websites. Same goes for the residential units.
We replaced a 4 door Norcold with a 18 cu ft Samsung common in many RVs today and the weight was within a few pounds.

I guess it depends on the difference in weight between the RV absorption fridge and the residential fridge and if (assuming the residential fridge IS heavier, which is not a given) the slideout is designed to handle the weight.

We have no problem at all with the large residential fridge in our road side kitchen slide.

Most weigh less than the RV ones.
