Choosing a spot for the refrigerator is not always simple because it frequently requires a significant amount of room. It is often a challenging task due to the modern kitchens' shrinking size. In order to have space to set items that you take out of the kitchen fridge, ideally, place it close to a counter. Additionally, it should be close enough to the sink for you to readily wash the stored items. The refrigerator, stove, and sink all must be close to one another.
