For those of you that have done residential fridge changes and have the black walnut cabinets and trim, where did you locate the black walnut 1/4 inch round to use as trim around the fridge? I have not located black walnut stain that looks remotely like the cabinets
Check your local lumber yards to see if they carry that wood. Google is your friend. I did not use 1/4 round but it was 1 to 2 inches wide with rounded corners. The edge that butts up to the fridge I cut so it is a flush fit.

Is your trim and cabinets walnut?
Yes, I'll take a picture of the trim tomorrow and post it. I might of posted pictures when I did the job.
If your previous fridge had the matching wood panels, I used that to trim out my new Samsung- which died after 2.5 years. Will be replacing it with something else
If you have pictures please post them!
I could be wrong but it's my understanding that the walnut in our coaches is not stained. I was told the finish was sanding sealer. I have used this and I tried to select walnut close to color grain of mine. Looks perfect
I just used a matte clear coat on black walnut in my U320 and it matched very well. I suspect your bigger challenge will be finding the walnut quarter round. If you can't find that, I used oak trim and stained it and it turned out ok. It wasn't a great match but didn't stick out either... most people wouldn't notice.

The table and paneling are walnut and the 90 degree corner trim around the slide-out arm is oak.
That's certainly what was used at least through 2003 for the walnut interiors. The Sherwin Williams sanding sealer finish was confirmed by David Flanagan when he ran the remodeling shop. The wood is specifically black walnut.
Anything 2007 and newer is a different story since FT used a number of different species, stains, and finishes beginning that year.
The stuff I use is almost clear and is called Bees Wax and if I find a scratch or a blemish somewhere
and just wipe the spot with the Bees Wax it looks like new.
I use this type of product to maintain cabinetry. Howard Feed and Wax. Have some walnut stain also for spot touch up
I would just go to a local hardwood store and buy a walnut board. Then run a 1/4" router bit down the edge. Rip the piece off on a table saw or with a circular saw using a guide and do it again until you have enough to do the job.
