The KBFN542SBE is one of the KitchenAid refrigerators. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site at the May 2026 capture of that site and was still listed there, so it is a current model rather than a discontinued one. No published specification for this model was recovered — no capacity, no width, no feature list — so none is stated here, and no figure has been taken from a neighbouring model number.
Because the KBFN542SBE is still a current model, parts supply is straightforward, though we confirm the specific component before quoting rather than after.

Most Common Issues on This Model
Door switch and interior lighting faults, including a lamp that stays lit with the door shut
Broken crisper runners and door bin lugs - cosmetic, but worth sourcing while parts last
Perished door gasket, showing as condensation round the door frame and a compressor that rarely stops
Cold control or thermistor drift, so the cabinet either runs warm or over-freezes the top shelf
