Elica EC30SRN16IPR

Running around the clock, the Elica EC30SRN16IPR uses a certified 325 kWh per year — about $60 at the U.S. average rate, or $4.97 a month, the equivalent of a steady 37-watt draw. Even among certified models it's on the thirsty end: 13% more electricity than the median freezerless-and-single-door refrigerator, ranked 228 of 269. The same unit costs $43 a year in Nevada but $171 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
