Amana AZB33X20D

The Amana AZB33X20D never switches off, and its certified 473 kWh a year works out to about $87 on a U.S.-average electric bill — roughly $7.23 a month for an average continuous draw of 54 watts. Efficiency-wise it's unremarkable in a good way: within 8% of the median certified upright freezer (rank 275 of 451).
