A refrigerator includes a housing defining an interior compartment with an open side and a door rotatably coupled with the housing. The door includes a liner defining an outer attachment surface and an opposite inner surface. The attachment surface includes a plurality of indicia corresponding with a plurality of predetermined attachment locations along the attachment surface. The door further includes a plurality of first magnetic components adjacent the interior surface and aligned with respective ones of the indicia. The refrigerator further includes a storage component defining a mounting surface having an area smaller than the attachment surface. The storage component includes a second magnetic component selectively releasably attachable to the liner at a selected one of the predetermined attachment locations by mutual attraction between the first magnetic component corresponding with the selected one of the predetermined attachment locations and the second magnetic component.

Refrigerator with magnetic bin system

A refrigerator includes a housing defining an interior compartment with an open side and a door rotatably coupled with the housing and selectively closing at least a portion of the open side. The door includes an interior liner defining an attachment surface and at least one first magnetic component adjacent the attachment surface. The refrigerator further includes a storage component defining a mounting surface having an area smaller than the attachment surface. The storage component includes a second magnetic component adjacent the mounting surface and removably retaining the mounting surface of the storage component to the attachment surface of the door by mutual attraction between the at least one first magnetic component and the second magnetic component.
