Same when I got my new one. Almost touches the cupboard above and only
enough room on the side for a reaching tool and a fly swatter on the other
side. Not sure what I will do when this one dies. They don't seem to make
this size any more. The side by sides are all larger. And if I have to go
with a top freezer model, it will be way too small.
