According to the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. In the refrigerator of the first aspect, when the specification switching room is used as, for example, a refrigerator room, the storage container is supported by the support frame with the first convex portion facing forward.
In this case, the second convex portion having a large protruding dimension is located on the rear side as the storage container, and the second convex portion moves away from the rear surface of the specification switching chamber and further from the damper device, so that the rear side of the storage container is too cold. Can be prevented as much as possible. Further, when the specification switching room is used as, for example, a freezing room, the storage container is supported by the support frame in a state where the first convex portion faces rearward. If you do this,
As the storage container, the second convex portion having a large protruding dimension is located on the front side and is separated from the door, so that the temperature on the front side of the storage container can be prevented from increasing as much as possible. Therefore, the temperature difference between the front part and the rear part of the storage container can be minimized whether the specification switching room is used as a refrigerator room or a freezing room.
