A refrigerator door tray assembly is disclosed in which the inner door panel has opposite sidewalls defining a space, a tray having support surfaces on opposite sides of the tray and a mounting device to removably and adjustably attach the tray to the door such that the tray is located between the opposite sidewalls of the door and such that its position may be easily adjusted, or the tray removed from the door. The mounting of the tray on the door is accomplished by a plurality of ribs extending inwardly from the opposite sidewalls of the door, each rib having first and second rib surfaces which extend at acute angles to the support surfaces on the tray, and a third rib surface which extends substantially parallel to the support surfaces. The tray has, in addition to the first and second support surfaces, first, second and third tray surfaces on each opposite sides of the tray located such that the first and second tray surfaces may slidably contact the first and second rib surfaces of a first rib while the third tray surface slidably contacts a first rib surface of an adjacent rib.
