To provide a refrigerator having a user-friendly drawer that does not cause much backlash, has a high grade, and requires small operation force even if a load is applied regarding the refrigerator having the drawer.
A rail member 31 comprises a fixed rail 31a; a movable rail 31b; an intermediate running rail 31c; and a plurality of bearings 31d for supporting the engagement between the intermediate running rail 31c, and the fixed rail 31a and the movable rail 31b. While the fixed rail 31a, the movable rail 31b, the intermediate running rail 31c, and a bearing 31d are incorporated in advance, the fixed rail 31a is fixed to a reinforcing member 33 on both the sidewall surfaces of an inner box 20 and is formed by integrating a metal material section 33a and a resin material section 33b, thus smoothly moving the movable rail 31b and reducing the operation force of the drawer, and hence securing the strength of the reinforcing member and improving the assembly working efficiency.
