I have made some decorative objects into the base game Crisponix Budget Dee-Lux fridge so my outdoor living sims can use their gardening produce and make the salad recipes but where a fridge just appears out of place. They will sit on different surfaces and my sims haven't had trouble grabbing the spawned food prep item even when placed towards the back of a counter, however on a counter there is not enough room for the sim to start making the food. For small spaces like a kitchenette I recommend island counters where there is enough room for the fridge to be place toward the back and still enough food prep area in front.
There are also portable versions which can be placed into a sims inventory but you must remove all fridge contents before doing so or everything will be permanently lost when the sim travels. The portable version and stand alone version share the same id so you have to pick only one. I did that because fridges are updated occasionally (toddler and parenthood) so if the game is updated replace with the stand alone version and you shouldn't lose anything as long as it is not in your sims inventory at the time (I hope that made sense).
I haven't given up on making a version without the fridge storage options or the increase in cooking quality but I am not making headway with that and I hope these versions are useful to people. Perhaps useful for normal kitchens where you don't want it to look like there are 2 fridges but want to alleviate the problem where one sim will start eating in front of the fridge blocking everyone else (that annoys me no end).
