30% more electricity than the median of 57 comparable Under 200 L wine or drinks cabinet (cooled appliance) registrations (100 kWh a year). It uses less than 19% of them. At 33c/kWh that is about $10 a year more than the median, $99 over 10 years.

Uses 46% less than the maximum allowed for its size and type under the minimum energy performance standard (242 kWh a year MEPS level).

How efficient is it for its size?

kWh per year. Bar: the middle 80% of 57 comparable Under 200 L wine or drinks cabinet (cooled appliance) registrations. Dot: this model (above the median). Hover or tab to a mark for its value.

Cohort: every currently registered Under 200 L wine or drinks cabinet (cooled appliance) sold in New Zealand, counted once per registration. Star ratings already account for size through the GEMS adjusted-volume formula; this comparison is in raw kWh against models a buyer would actually consider instead.
