I don't understand it. I want my own fridge. Is it common in the US to move into a fully furnished apartment?

Usually large appliances are included with the sale of a property so people a) don't have to move them and b) don't have to go buy new ones if the current ones they have don't work in the new property.

Some houses have gas hookups for stoves/clothes dryers so you would have to sell your electric ones and buy new ones if they weren't included in the sale (or vice versa)

Some kitchens have cabinet layouts which fit a 30" fridge or a 36" fridge and you would have to buy a new one if your current one doesn't fit.
