A free embedded refrigerator includes a cabinet, a door, and a hinge assembly, the cabinet includes an accommodating chamber and an outer side surface, and a direction from the accommodating chamber towards the outer side surface serves as a first direction; the hinge assembly includes a first hinge part, a second hinge part and a switching assembly; when the door is in an opening process, the first hinge part moves relative to the switching assembly, and then, the second hinge part moves relative to the switching assembly; the hinge assembly drives the door to rotate in situ relative to the cabinet, then drives the door to move away from the cabinet in the first direction, and then drives the door to continuously rotate in situ. The refrigerator increases an opening-closing freedom degree of the door, and various motion tracks may be generated to adapt to different application scenarios.
