Cohort: every currently registered 500–599 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.
