LG LF19C8200

Running around the clock, the LG LF19C8200 uses a certified 590 kWh per year — about $108 at the U.S. average rate, or $9.02 a month, the equivalent of a steady 67-watt draw. Efficiency-wise it's unremarkable in a good way: within 5% of the median certified bottom-freezer refrigerator (rank 921 of 1478). The same unit costs $77 a year in Nevada but $311 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
