Atosa USA AWR36D2 Worktop Refrigerator, 36-3/8"W, 2 Drawers, 8.97 Cu Ft, Stainless Steel, R290
Atosa USA AWR36D2 — 36" Worktop Refrigerator with Two Drawers
The AWR36D2 does two jobs at once: it is a reinforced stainless steel work surface and 8.97 cu ft of drawer refrigeration in a 36-3/8" footprint. Two drawers hold product at a steady 35°F to 38°F right where the cook is working, and the whole cabinet runs on R290 refrigerant with an electronic controller.
Key Features of the AWR36D2
A worktop unit gets stood on, leaned on and opened a few hundred times a service. These are the parts of the build that decide whether it survives that.
Reinforced Stainless Top
The work surface is reinforced stainless steel, not a bare cabinet lid, so it takes cutting boards, hotel pans and the weight of a cook leaning into a prep task without oil-canning.
Environmentally Friendly R290
Atosa builds this cabinet around R290, a natural hydrocarbon refrigerant, on a 1/7+ HP system that draws just 3.4 amps at 115 V.
Two Drawers, Flexible Pans
Each unit comes standard with 1/6 size pans. Atosa also publishes optional drawer layouts in 1/1, 1/2, 1/3 and 1/4 sizes, so the same cabinet can serve a sandwich line or a cold prep station.
Electronic Temperature Control
A digital controller holds the cabinet between 35°F and 38°F — the band Atosa recommends for best food preservation — and gives staff a readable setpoint instead of a guessed dial position.
5" Casters Pre-Installed
Ships on 5" swivel stem casters already mounted, so the unit rolls out for cleaning behind the line on day one. Atosa lists both braked (B0604007) and non-braked (B0604006) versions as standard.
Recessed Handles, Magnetic Gaskets
Recessed drawer handles keep the aisle clear of anything to catch a hip or an apron string, and magnetic drawer gaskets are standard, so the seal wipes down and reseats itself.
Installation note: the condenser breathes through the rear grate, so leave the cabinet room to breathe rather than pushing it tight against a wall, and clean the condenser frequently to give the unit more fresh air. Both are what Atosa asks for on this series.
Ideal Applications
Drawer refrigeration earns its place wherever the cook should not be walking to a reach-in mid-ticket.

The electronic controller maintains 35°F to 38°F, which is the range Atosa recommends for best food preservation in this cabinet.
Can I lower the overall height of the unit?
Yes. It ships at 38-7/8" on 5" swivel stem casters, but Atosa offers 4" stem casters (37-7/8" overall) and 2", 1.5" and 1.2" swivel plate casters that bring it down to 36", 35-3/8" and 34-3/4" respectively.

It sits between the 27-1/2" AWR27D2 (6.53 cu ft, 2 drawers) and the AWR48D4 (12.22 cu ft, 4 drawers), with the AWR60D4 (15.5 cu ft, 4 drawers) and AWR72D6 (18.89 cu ft, 6 drawers) above those. All share the same 30" depth and 38-7/8" height on standard casters, and all run R290.
