GE Profile PXD22BYP

Running around the clock, the GE Profile PXD22BYP uses a certified 698 kWh per year — about $128 at the U.S. average rate, or $10.67 a month, the equivalent of a steady 80-watt draw. It sits near the bottom of the certified table — using 24% more than the median bottom-freezer refrigerator (rank 1260 of 1478) — so the state you live in matters more than usual. The same unit costs $92 a year in Nevada but $368 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
