I'm with radioman and nothing else gets plugged into the fridge outlet. I installed led undercabinet lights and plugged them into the same outlet as the fridge. The first time they were on and the newish fridge kicked on I needed new undercabinet lights.

I charge both of our cell phones and both of our Kindles on the same outlet the fridge is on and have for 18 years at this point.

No problem.

For the most part unless you have a subzero or other high end fridge the refrigerator is on the exact same circuit as half the kitchen/dining room outlets. It's very rare to have a dedicated fridge circuit. So plugging into the fridge outlet or half the other kitchen/dinning room outlets = the same damn thing.

I had a microwave plugged into my fridge outlet for well over a decade before I got a newer mounted microwave with required a dedicated circuit.

I have zero reservations about plugging anything into my fridge outlet.
