I had to buy a counter depth for my new house for the same reasons. But I also kept my old fridge and put it in the garage. That's where the beer is.
I did the exact same thing. Was forced to get counter depth because the island was too close to the fridge space.

I'm a perfectionist, so I'd spend the $500, because otherwise it would bother me every time I looked at it.

I have a seperste big beverage fridge under counter. Without it I would throw my counter depth fridge in the road.

Fridges are a waste of money. Got rid of mine weeks ago, and never have I looked back.

Why spend more for less fridge space? Bigger is better.

The Frigidaire stand alone are the best price, but I don't think the best deal. I had a customer get one. The ice maker wouldn't work, which happens sometimes. Frigidaire sent repair people that couldnt get them apart. They are not that common. They ripped the handle off them and had to replace the front. Also, the stainless is super thin. When they shut the fridge with something in the door and it's not enough space, it leaves an idention you can see if the light hits it right on the outside.
To the question at hand, get a counter depth. They are the best solution within a budget. A built in is too expensive for what you get.

but I'm OT poor and think the money is better spent elsewhere.
Word of caution though. If you are not going to have a secondary fridge in the house, make sure the counterdepth design will fit the things you'd expect to use it for --- like a pizza box for example. Many won't.

It was for my galley kitchen, only thing that would work. They do however have limited capacity so either have a separate freezer/ref. or:
1- not have children
2- go to the store often

Apparently standard fridges stick out up to 9 inches from the cabinets and looks awkward.
You mean it looks like 90% of fridges? I've never thought it looks awkward and for that matter, not sure if I've ever seen a counter depth fridge. Just spend that money elsewhere.
