14 Cu Ft Refrigerator Dimensions | Exact Sizes That Fit

A 14 cu ft refrigerator typically measures about 28 inches wide, 61–63 inches tall, and 29–32 inches deep.

Knowing the standard 14 cu ft refrigerator dimensions saves you from a costly return. Most top-freezer models in this class share a similar footprint, but the exact numbers vary enough by brand that you should never order one based on capacity alone. Here’s what the spec sheets actually show.

What Size Is A 14 Cu Ft Refrigerator?

Most 14 cu ft refrigerators are top-freezer models that run about 28″ wide, 61–63″ high, and 29–32″ deep. That depth grows significantly when the door swings open, often extending past 54 inches.

Whirlpool’s WRT134TFDW spec sheet lists its 14 cu ft model at 62-7/8″ H × 28″ W × 32-1/8″ D, with a depth of 55-3/4″ when the door opens 90 degrees. Meanwhile, GE’s TBX14SABLWW, a 14.4 cu ft unit, comes in at 61-1/2″ H × 28″ W × 29-9/16″ D. Two refrigerators in the same class, four inches of depth difference.

Whirlpool’s refrigerator size guide notes that standard dimensions across all refrigerators fall between 24–40″ wide, 61–72″ tall, and 28–37″ deep — so the 14 cu ft class sits at the smaller end of that range.

14 Cu Ft Refrigerator Dimensions By Model

Different brands interpret “14 cubic feet” differently. Some list 13.9, others 14.2 or 14.4, and the exterior dimensions shift accordingly. Here’s how two popular models compare:

Model Capacity Split Dimensions (H × W × D)
Whirlpool WRT134TFDW 10 cu ft fridge / 4 cu ft freezer 62-7/8″ × 28″ × 32-1/8″
GE TBX14SABLWW 14.4 cu ft total 61-1/2″ × 28″ × 29-9/16″

Both units are exactly 28 inches wide, which is the most consistent measurement in this class. Height and depth are where the differences show up, and those two numbers determine whether the unit fits under your cabinets and against your wall.

Whirlpool’s WRT314TFDB listing shows the same 62.88″ H × 28″ W × 32.25″ D, but its carton dimensions run larger at 64.4″ × 29.8″ × 33.0″ — a reminder that delivery clearance and installed clearance are two different problems.

Clearance And Installation Requirements

You need more than the bare product dimensions. A refrigerator that fits in the opening still needs room for airflow, door swing, and water lines.

  • Ventilation: Whirlpool’s spec sheet instructs allowing an extra 1/2″ on the sides and top, plus 1″ at the rear. Their size guide also recommends at least 1″ between the back of the unit and the wall.
  • Door swing: At 90 degrees open, the Whirlpool model reaches 55-3/4″ deep. Make sure your aisle and adjacent cabinets clear that arc.
  • Water line: If your model has an ice maker, leave extra rear space for the water-line connection.
  • Hinge side: The door needs room to swing on its hinge side; a narrow opening can render an otherwise fitting refrigerator unusable.

The measurement trap is that product pages list multiple depths — cabinet depth, depth with handles, depth with door open, and carton depth. Confusing them is the most common mistake people make when planning a kitchen layout.

Measuring Your Space Correctly

Before you commit, measure the installation space side-to-side, floor-to-cabinet height, and depth from the back wall forward. Record depth both including and excluding doors and handles, then compare that against the spec sheet for the exact model you want.

Never rely on the “14 cu ft” label alone. Whirlpool’s guide is explicit that dimensions vary by model, and a quick check of the manufacturer’s spec sheet takes two minutes — far less time than a return and reinstall.
