An under the counter refrigeration unit (20), having a support frame (24), refrigerator cabinet (26), automatically opening lid (28), slide mechanism (32), and anti-racking assembly (86), is utilized to provide controlled temperature storage without occupying previously unused floor space or counter top (34) work area. The refrigerator cabinet (26) has an open top (60), and the slide mechanism (32) utilizes four drawer slides interposed between the support frame (24) and the refrigerator cabinet (26). The automatic lid opening mechanism (118) utilizes pins (132, 134) attached to opposite sides of the lid (28) and extending outwardly into inclined slots (122, 126). As the pins (132, 134) move to upper ends (128) of the slots (122, 126) the lid (28) is automatically lifted off the top (60) of the refrigerator cabinet (26).
