Although I doubt there is a definitive answer to this question, since many factors, mostly economical, take into account, but to make a product that harnesses the rejected heat would be quite difficult. Different refrigerators produce varying amounts of heat, dimensions can vary greatly, and space constraints limit the market greatly. In addition, current methods of converting free heat into energy are very inefficient.
At the most, you might be able to use it as a hand warmer.
A refrigerator really doesn't make things cold. A refrigerator absorbs heat. The condenser is releasing the accumulated heat into the room.
There is only one condenser. That would be an air condenser.
The condenser cools the refridgerant. This turns it from a gas back to a liquid. Absorbing heat from the stored food causes the refridgerant to change from liquid to gas. This 'warm' gas is passed through the condenser, where the heat escapes. As the gas cools, it turns back to liquid for re-circulation. If you touch the coil at the back of a fridge - you'll see what I mean.
works by pumping refrigerant, a liquid chemical, through tubes in the cooling cabinet. The refrigerant evaporates there and pulls heat from the air. The gas is pumped out of the cabinet and into the compressor and condenser where the heat is expelled
actually there is no difference , infact condenser itself is a heat exchanger

Condenser coil
Heat is absorbed by the refrigerant liquid inside the fridge, and rejected by the heat exchanger on the back of it.

Heat in the area, Heat made by a compressure or condenser to heat other stuff like a heater or heat water or heat air, Again heat made by the compressure or condenser to heat a area!
what two places heat be deposited in a water cooled condenser
A refrigerator is a form of heat pump. It pumps heat out of something.
A condenser is a form of heat exchanger. In the condenser, the coolant condenses from a gas to a liquid, and loses heat energy to the surroundings (like air being blown across it).
