A refrigerator (2) includes a cabinet within which is arranged an upper fresh food compartment (8) and a lower freezer compartment (13). A freezer basket (48) is slidingly supported in the freezer compartment, preferably for concurrent movement with a freezer door (18). The freezer basket is coupled to a lifting mechanism (60) that selectively shifts the freezer basket (48) from a first or lowered position to a second or raised position in order to facilitate removal of items from the freezer basket. The lifting mechanism can be formed by a mechanical, electrical or pneumatic system. |
