Vissani HVUF700STE

Running around the clock, the Vissani HVUF700STE uses a certified 296 kWh per year — about $54 at the U.S. average rate, or $4.52 a month, the equivalent of a steady 34-watt draw. It sits near the bottom of the certified table — using 19% more than the median compact freezer (rank 103 of 134) — so the state you live in matters more than usual. The same unit costs $39 a year in Nevada but $156 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
