Question Samsung Residential Fridge

Looking at a new Avalanche. It has the residential Samsung refrigerator. In our last two campers, we had traditional gas / electric evap style. When we were done camping we always kept the doors cracked to eliminate mold when not in use. (we only camp about 1 weekend a month)

Wondering how we accomplish this with the two door residential style. The slide seems to come right up to the island. Is there a way to prop the doors for travel and storage?

We have had good luck with travelling leaving the fridge running. And remember, when you store it, only one of the two doors of the fridge need to be open. And when storing you can prop the freezer door open enough to keep it vented. We have had no trouble at all.

Agree with Notanlines, I just open one of the ref. doors a little and it stays open without anything holding it open. Crack the freezer drawer a little with a small 1/4" thick piece of wood on one side to hold it. So far I'm liking the residential much better than the absorption type.

Thank you folks. We went to the dealer today to make our final decision. Had them close the slides and looks like we won't have any issues that I was initially concerned about.
