To improve adhesion between the upper end part and lower end part of a center gasket and a housing, while solving noise resulting from a center pillar using the center gasket, in a double-door refrigerator.SOLUTION: A refrigerator 100 comprises a housing 2 having an opening part on a front surface, and a pair of double doors 3 that opens and closes the opening part of the housing 2. The pair of doors 3 comprises: horizontal gaskets G1, G2 provided on the upper and lower sides of each door 3 and extending in a horizontal direction; and a pair of center gaskets G4 that is interposed between opposite side surfaces 3a of the doors 3 facing each other with the pair of doors 3 closed, and extends in a vertical direction. The pair of center gaskets G4 is configured to project from an upper end part G4a to a lower end part G4b toward the inside of the refrigerator with respect to the horizontal gaskets G1, G2.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 【課題】観音開き式の冷蔵庫において、センターガスケットを用いてセンターピラー起因の騒音を解決しつつ、センターガスケットの上端部及び下端部と筐体との間の密着性を向上させる。【解決手段】前面に開口部を有する筐体２と、筐体２の開口部を開閉する観音開き式の一対の扉３と備える冷蔵庫１００であって、一対の扉３が、各扉３の上辺部及び下辺部に設けられて左右方向に延びる横ガスケットＧ１、Ｇ２と、一対の扉３が閉じられた状態において、これらの扉３の互いに対向する対向側面３ａの間に介在するとともに、上下方向に延びる一対のセンターガスケットＧ４とを備え、一対のセンターガスケットＧ４が、その上端部Ｇ４ａから下端部Ｇ４ｂに亘って横ガスケットＧ１、Ｇ２よりも庫内側に突出すようにした。【選択図】図４
