PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator of high user's usability in opening a door by using a door opening device.SOLUTION: A refrigerator S has refrigerating compartment doors 21a and 21b disposed at an opening portion of a refrigerating compartment R1 and capable of being opened and closed, a door opening device 3 for opening the refrigerating compartment doors 21a and 21b by energizing a solenoid, door opening switches 4a and 4b operated by a user when the refrigerating compartment doors 21a and 21b are opened by using the door opening device 3, and a control device for controlling energization to the solenoid. The control device energizes the solenoid with a first electric current value to move the refrigerating compartment doors 21a and 21b from a state of closing the opening portion of the refrigerating compartment R1 during lapse of a first prescribed time from the operation of the door opening switches 4a and 4b, and energizes the solenoid with a second electric current value smaller than the first electric current value after the lapse of the first prescribed time from the operation of the door opening switches 4a and 4b.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
