Our Review
The Continental Refrigerator 1RNGDHD 19 cu. ft. Commercial Refrigerator is a 18.8 cu. ft. commercial refrigerator from Continental Refrigerator, built for 24/7 duty cycles in restaurants, c-stores, and food-service environments. Not a residential appliance — but a useful reference point if you're spec'ing a commercial kitchen.
What it's built for
Commercial refrigerators run harder and longer than residential units. Expect a heavier compressor (Continental Refrigerator's typical commercial-grade unit), stainless interior, casters or leveling legs, and NSF-style construction for health-code compliance.
Bottom line
If you operate a food-service business and need a 18.8 cu. ft. reach-in, this is in the right category. Pair it with a service contract and you'll get years of trouble-free operation.
